When I was reading various posts I’m sure I read sky sports subscribers got it included. After looking at the app and website etc I have no idea if it’s right or do I have to put some sort of code in. I know it’s not till after round 15 but would like to know. I pay enough for Sky I’m not paying for a streaming service aswell.

If you don’t have Sky it might be a better and cheaper option to subscribe to Warrington TV for the season and watch them a couple of days later.

Not so sure about this now. In the early weeks all games are being shown on TV & via Superleague+ ... but it looks like later in the season only a couple of games are on TV with the rest on Superleague+. It looks to me like Sky TV Subscribers will have to purchase Superleague+ in addition to their Sky TV subscription to see all games. I'd be glad to be told I've got it wrong.

Yes, that`s the way I see it too.

The 1st 15 games will all be shown on TV, and after that fans wanting to watch all the games, or individual games of their choice, will have to subscribe to Superleague+

I rarely watch a televised game live, but record it and watch it later.

The steamed games are no use to me, if I can`t watch them at a later time, but I had no intention of giving SKY any further money anyway.

Seems to me after 15 games Sky will launch a service of their own, whether this be red button or a SuperLeague+ type service we haven't been told. I'm also interested to see if we can watch any of the extra 4 games on delay / on demand with Sky - that will be an important part of which service I decide to go for longer term as other than a bit of cricket - which I could probably take or leave - RL is the only sport I watch on Sky Sports.

I just emailed the support team at Superleague+ to ask about the situation regarding Sky. They said that Superleague+ is a separate service to Sky, so a separate subscription will be needed.

100% feel the same, which is why i never bothered with NOW TV. If i can't record it and watch it later, and my only option is to watch it live it's no use to me.
I'll just crack on and just watch the 2 games a week after the 15 rounds icon_smile.gif

I was thinking that you will be able to watch matches via Superleague+ retrospectively. Not seen anything that says you won't be able to do this.

Nah, if you've got a Sky subscription you won't need Super League+. Sky are showing every single game live on their regular channels for 15 rounds, after 15 rounds it will be showing 2 live games on their regular channels and the other 4 will be going on a new Sky streaming service that they are launching to coincide with the new EFL season, which you will have access to as a Sky subscriber. So if you are a sky subscriber, you will have access to every game without touching Super League+.

No idea on the state of watching match replays on Sky. The last few years it's been basically non existent which is infuriating considering how much it costs. I would assume that once they launch their streaming service, you WILL be able to watch games on demand, but that's pure speculation on my part. Although it is the way every streaming service I've ever used has worked.

As for Super League+, it says the games will be available to watch on demand pretty much immediately after the live transmission has finished. After 15 rounds, they will not be able to show the 2 Sky games live, but these will be available on demand after 48 hours.

This is pretty much how I see it, I’ll wait and see how the SuperLeague+ is performing and likely switch once my Sky contract runs out as long as SL+ is working well - I only have Sky Sports for RL really.

If and when they announce the BBC taking over from C4 will they keep the Superleague show, was the place to see the highlights.

The only chore I don’t mind, it’s better than washing the dishes.

So what is this other streaming service going to be called?

I didn`t have the free time available to watch all the games I was recording, and ended up filling too much of the Digi Box hard-drive with NRL games I hadn`t watched.

In the end I just deleted them all, stopped recording them and eventually didn`t watch the NRL games anymore.
