Saturday night games appear poorly supported and are rather dull. It's as if everyone is just waiting to get the game over with and get on the lash (players included). There really is nothing to lose by switching that TV fixture to Monday, and it may have the bonus of new people taking an interest in the game in the absence of Monday Night Football over the summer.

In the words of Bob Geldof, I don't like Mondays. Give me Saturday evening any day.

I prefer Sunday evening kick offs for the 2nd TV game.

Be interesting to see what the crowd and atmosphere is like tonight.

No, no, Sunday is just as bad lol
I like to be in a good mood when i'm watching rugby, nothing worse than Mondays for that

I think we will all be surprised when we look at the average gates for Monday and the sky viewing they have had it for some time in aus I think its a good

and the fans in Aus hate it (though good for TV), crowd figures for the Monday games are appalling

I'll much prefer them to Saturdays.

Personally, I work saturday, and have mondays off so monday night rugby is very much welcome to me.

Saturday nights just don't seem to work somehow - OTOH I'm really looking forward to tonight

I'm struggling to see any negatives for RL really - other than a vocal minority of fans who will always complain unless it is Sunday, 3pm (or 3.30pm) - but I imagine their forefathers were equally outraged when we moved from Saturdays.

It gives fans some quality sport to watch on a monday and saturday evening games are dull many people watch the football in th pub and on TV so it should draw in viewers

For me
Sunday Night>Monday Night>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Saturday Night

ie Saturday night games should be stopped forever

I work every saturday night so its a bonus for me, but obviously not for the masses. Anyone who has kids or has to travel a long way will be put off especially with it being on TV.

Absolute disaster for me. I work Mondays and have done for the past 20 years. I now lose half the games I pay sky for and also lose out on a game I have a ticket for (Warrington on August bank holiday Monday).

Be interesting to see what the away attendance is. Every Saints fan I know who normally goes is not going, either because of kids at school tomorrow, working tonight or don't want to be out that late when they are up early for work tomorrow. Think attendances might improve when school holidays start but not expecting a strong Saints following as normal tonight.

I think the attendances for these monday night games will be pretty poor taking into account people having work/kids going to school the next day but no doubt at some point there'll be a big announcement by the RFL that it's been a huge success because x amount of people have been watching on sky.

Who pay the real money so they're not bothered.
Before you then harp on about the fans losing out it's been that way for years as every friday night game is all about the corporate dollar and not the fans and if anyone tells you any different they're lying to you.
Look at the success of monday night football in the US or even NRL, if it's a success maybe Sky will have to throw on a few £££ to the next TV deal, I think it will be a roaring success, genuinely.
