Just checked their website and its currently £7.99 per month. Last year think they showed around 5 or 6 live NRL games a weekend with numerous replays, plus the State of Origin that SKY didn't show.

LiveNRL.com charges £8.99 per month but has a more extensive service.

1st round of NRl fixtures beginning on Thurs 1st March so will decide which service to go with by then.

It's a poor channel in my opinion.

It shows 6 games of NRL a week. Last year it usually showed the 2 Friday night games, 2 on Saturday, the Sunday Fox game and MNF. Also shows City/Country and it also says it will show 35 games of Championship Rugby this season. Sky still have SoO and the Anzac test.

If you like the NRL though the channel is great. Apart from the RL though I never turned it on.

I have it. Its well worth the price for the NRL games, now even more so for the Championship games.

I hope they start showing games in HD soon though.

May I ask, why?

I'm up for purchaseing, love me NFL and enjoy the championship. Does it show footy show????

I watched one of the free games last season, and the quality of footage was almost unwatchable. It looked like it was being streamed down the internet on a dial-up connection. Has it improved, cos £7.99 is a good price.

They repeat everything all the time, should be called Groundhog Channel. The quality of the pictures isn't the best & on certain other shows the dubbling is shocking. I'm not knocking their coverage of NRL but apart from that it's not worth the subscription.

No, they said they were asking too much and is likely to never happen.

I thought SOO was broadcast on Sky last year ? .

£8 a month for around 30 games of RL will do for me. It's not Sky Sports HD, but nor does it pretend to be.

Great value for the amount of NRL you get. Considering I had to pay about £10 a month for a maximum of 2 games on setanta.

I might be mistaken but I think they only showed the final SOO on SKY last year. They also showed the NRL Grandfinal. TBH if they don't have the SOO cos SKY have it instead that's fine with me - so long as its on one of the channels.

Can't see the issue with them not having any other sport worth watching - £7.99 per month for around 24 games from the best RL comp in the world seems decent value to me.

Yeah, Sky had all of them last year. Premiersports only have City v Country but like you say, 6 games a week for £2 is worth the fee alone... forget about what else is on there.

Just to clarify last season no Eddie and Stevo

Next season, Premier have said they will have 170 NRL Games plus 32 Championship games

nb. You don't have to subscribe to Sky to be able to watch Premier, just need a sky box and dish
