I found some of the wording from Rhodri Jones interesting. He seemed to be avoiding stating that all games are available on demand, only mentioning an on demand feature when specifically speaking about the live Sky games that are added later (48hrs from the journo's tweets a couple of days ago).
So i had a nosey on the website, and unless it is very badly worded it seems that you can only stream games on demand from the current season if you pay from an annual pass. if you choose to pay monthly (as i would expect most to) it appears you would only be able to watch games live, thus making it impossible to consume all the content and making the price point even worse.
Bit of a baffling decision if you ask me, i would have thought Super League would want most people paying monthly as they would earn more money that way. Even if a monthly subscriber pays for just the months in season, they would be handing over £180 as opposed to £130 (£100 for season ticket holders). Surely keeping these people happy should be important, not gatekeeping content from them.

So what does this mean for Wigan TV do they still get uploaded after the game or is it going to be live?

Frustrating to see the Cas KO time has changed.
Had the day planned to sync in with the Fury fight later on and that's thrown it out.
I wonder if this will be a regular occurrence with more games being shown on TV?

Exactly the same here. I was hoping to get away from Cas for 5ish and probably head back to find somewhere to watch it in either Manchester or Wigan. I should still get back in time for it but will need to make sure I know where I'm heading in advance and that they're showing it. I live in Atherton and walked the full length of the main street when Joshua, Wilder, Parker, and co were fighting just before Christmas and out of the 15 bars or so, literally none had it on. |

I know it isn't close, but it looks like Georgia Browns in Hindley will be showing it. They showed the AJ fight anyway.
Should be a good day of sport, just a shame it doesn't slot together as well as it did prior to the KO change. |

Thanks for the heads up. I've not been in for years and I'd seen it had been done up, so might give that a try. |
