| It's good that all the England games will be on the BBC, a broadcaster everyone has access to. Hopefully the highlights shows will be done well and will get broadcast nationally. The only problem with Premier Sports showing the rest for the existing RL fans is that the only way you can have even the option of seeing it is with a Sky subscription but there are a few months for that to be remedied if that is what Premier Sports want.
Except for a few notable exceptions like Wales v Italy and Samoa v Tonga the rest of the games are likely to be one sided, poor spectacles in the main so as far as catching the interest of casual viewers and potential new fans is concerned the tournament won't miss out too much IMO.

| Fantastic news,the national team playing live to a national audiance not hidden away on sky
As someone pointed out it means for weeks our sport gets proper exposure to the nation
Seems like a blast from the past and modelled on the 1995 world cup which was a huge success,33k on at wigan for england v fiji an attendance they can only dream about now adays
The beeb showed the main matches and the old sattilite channel pre sky showed the other matches which meant fans actually want along to watch as very few had access to the channel
Like someone said no eddie and stevo that as to be worth 100million alone without listening to them prattle on and on and on

| Quote William Eve="William Eve"I suspect that Sky weren't interested in coverage of the RLWC or future Four Nations tournaments. The reason for their lack of interest is the damage it does to the credibility of their SL product... particularly when all our SL players get shown up and the national side is embarrassed again and again on the international stage. After the disastrous out-of-their-depth performances of all our SL players in the RLWC in 2008, it became very difficult for Eddie and Stevo to justify or pretend that their precious SL product was fantastic. I believe Sky's complete lack of interest in covering the NRL these days is for the same reasons. They don't want their SL product shown up for what it is... comparatively speaking of course.'"
Its a good job that the we're only trusted with plastic knives and forks or i'd be slitting my own throat with the total negativity.

You know, I feel like some people are just trying to wind up the RL Meltdown guy on twitter by posting messages this long!
