thanks, pleased to be of assistance.

im just surprised i pay closer attention to threads on here than others, given im not english and all and that SL isnt actually my local comp.

still no facts or links?

so basically you are asking an aussie for more info on SL.



if i do find that link since you are too lazy too look, whats in it for me.



like i said before, an aussie having to tell poms about his own domestic RL competition is very embarrasing

damn this is going to be painful....





dally is right...kind of..







according to jamie peacock,who was having another rant about the number of games that the players play said something along the lines of.." the clubs get £300,000 more from this season (tv money),yet we are still playing more games....why?"

Ordinary response, at least you have received one!

Clearly they are confusing NRL with NFL American football!!! That response is all about American Football. They are Scotland based though Setanta so they probably need a RL education!

The letter cited above shows that the customer relations section of Setanta is staffed by morons. What hope do we have?



Just in case anyone gets through to a representative with minimum competence:



The most exciting teams to watch in the NRL this year are Brisbane Broncos (Lockyer, Hunt and Folau), North Queensland Cowboys (Bowen and Thurston), NZ Warriors (McKinnon, Tate, Ropati, "The Beast" Vatuvei, and Stacey Jones), Melbourne Storm (Inglis, Smith, Cronk and Slater), Canterbury Bulldogs (El Mazri, Kimmorley and Idris), and West Tigers (Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah).



Yet how often does Setanta show them? They prefer to show us pablum. Imagine if all Sky matches never included Leeds or St Helens? Apparently the Setanta idea of a good match is something that resembles Hurling. The moron who answers crucrucrusaders may not even know the difference between Hurling and NFL, let alone between NFL and NRL. No wonder they are going broke!



I suggest that we demand at least three games a week, at least two of them live, and that Brisbane, Nth Queensland, NZ, Melbourne, Canterbury and Wests Tigers games should figure strongly.

Well the 8:30 Saturday match is 5th choice pick I think.



Not quite sure how it works but its something like Channel 9 1st and 2nd pick, Fox 3rd pick for Monday Night Football then 9 4th pick then Fox pick the rest for Saturday and Sunday?

I don't think that Setanta is bound by the choices of the Australian networks. I suspect that they can choose to show anything fed live to them.

Eels vs Raiders the only match this weekend, instead of another NRL match Setanta opted to show 2 AFL games.
