| Choosing the Crusaders v Catalan game over Saints v Warrington is surely outrageous. Surely the only people who’ll be turning in to watch that game are slowly losing the will to live.
I would of watched tonight if the televised game was Warrington v Saints. Instead sky have lost a vital viewing figure as I’ll compensate to listening to Leeds v Hull KR on the radio.
Here’s to hoping that sky won’t make many more mistakes like this.  |

I bet more people watch Crusaders v Catalan because of Gareth Thomas, and we get Wire/Saints twice a year every year so we're due a change.

I agree rather watch St Helens and Warrington than Crusaders and Catalans or Harlequins and Huddersfield.

Warrington will win this one and we don't want people seeing that now do we.

the only upside of Saints winning run ending tonight would be that the Wire fans wont be able to watch it forever more  |

Yes those who are slowly losing the will to live - rugby union fans.
On a more serious note I wish Gareth Thomas all the best in rugby league however I still don’t agree that this should be the deciding factor of what game should be on sky.
Warrington v St Helens will be a lot more exciting than whatever Gareth Thomas comes up with tonight. However I’ve got a feeling this bloke is going to be a big hit once he fits in. |

The games were picked donkeys ago.
Crusaders will have a huge viewing figure tonight and the crowd at St Helens is also going to be huge, Wire are taking more than I've ever seen

I've seen saints v wire on the tv loads of times, havent ever seen cru v frogs so i for one am happy with the choice. Watching the same teams on tv over and over again bores me, let someone else be on. |

What he said.
In any case, I'm off to Hull/Bradford tonight and will watch Crusaders later on having Sky+d it. No need for me to be up in arms! |

big games shaping the season should be on TV IMO.
It would be unimaginable for Man Utd -v- Liverpool not to be on TV, and this game is the RL equivalent. |

How many premiership games are on tv a week though. We get two sl games a week and we get the same teams over and over again. I wouldnt have bothered watching saints v wire tonight but as its something a bit differant i will be tuning in. |

Warrington vs Saints games are always entertaining and this fixture would have been best choice. Although it will be interesting to see how Thomas gets on.
Warrington will prove tonight if they are real title contenders or not.

Why not go to the game. Then you won't have to worry about who is or isn't on TV
