Just as it does for ALL of it's other major sporting events, the BBC should be advertising the event and something significantly better than the cringeworthy graphic copied from the SL show would help slightly but, as the sports broadcasting partner, they should be helping with the build up to what is supposed to be a major sporting event.

Good shout.
Maybe almost have a triple header of games for Sky. Have Saints v Wigan at Anfield, Leeds v Cas at Elland Road and Hull v Hull KR at the KC.
Could stagger them through the day so Sky could show all of them?

No ,not a good shout........How about having nothing that w/end? And let the players enjoy the bank holiday,and a well earned rest with their families before the business end of the season.It's Preposterous to have the C/Cup final during the summer holidays anyway.

On top of saints reffing clarification (definitely not a complaint) i just remembered about this little belter. https://amp-theguardian-com.cdn.ampproj ... e.sthelens

So, why not try and make an event out of it? It’s an opportunity. If we have no games on a weekend then the season is longer. I’m all for having fewer games and bye weeks like in the NRL but I think that’s wildly optimistic to imagine given the repeated self-serving lazy interests that run our game.
