I hope this means that the new provider shows the Skolars. The only side never to have a home game on Sky!

Don't think Swinton have been shown? Although they are on in a few weeks vs Keighley I think. |

If I were Sky I wouldn't pay 10p for them, they are awful.'"
I suppose you're non-RL supporting mates would be turning up in droves if they were treated week in week out to that quality effort served up by Bradford and Les Cats.
I won't do kids an injustice to compare it to an under 9's match it was that bad - it only perked up for the last 20 mins or so.
Get your head out of that bucket of and realise there's a game outside of SL serving up good value.
BTW, the game began in 1895 - not 1996. |

What a ridiculous, crass comment - especially as there are a number of part-time Championship outfits against whom your beloved Harlequins would probably struggle to achieve a win. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

I suppose we could wait until TV negotiations are concluded and any deals announced before jumping out of our collective prams ....
on the other hand: nah, this is RLFans, what was I thinking of?

Is there anywhere on this site where you don't come across as being a total prick? I know you're as popular as the clap on the Harlequins board. Well your brand of negaitivity is right at home here on the VT too.

As per usual there is a load of wrong information on the VT.
Nobody 'official' has come out with this so it's probably a load of crap.
The RFL haven't agreed a contract with SKY about covering the Championships yet but they haven't agreed one for the 4 Nations and RLWC either
Time will tell

Only rumours at the moment , as you said , time will tell , if we lose it because they don't want to pay for it , fine , not a problem |

I never watch championship RL. It really does bring a whole new meaning to the word 'amateur'
If it's not Superleague then as far as I'm concerned there is no place for it on Sky Sports.
I'm sure there will be a half hour round up of all the games somewhere and we can all enjoy watching the dropped passes, knock ons, overweight players, crowds of about 67 people and games finishing with a 46 -52 scoreline.
