Interesting to see if there's an option to stream individual games. I have a Watch NRL subscription but don't have Sky Sports. Individual games (Wigan games I can't get to) would work for me

I have just cancelled my watch NRL, i noticed half way through last season that for a couple of years now they have been uploading the full games onto youtube a couple of days after they are live. I don't mind watching NRL games a couple of days later.

I noticed that, but I just like lazing about at weekends watching the games.

I think Watch NRL is great value. I don’t watch many live games on it as my lads play football Sat and Sun so I’m always watching them but most nights there’s something I’ll watch. Matty Johns Thursday and Sunday show, Face to Face on a Monday, Matty Johns show with Cronk on a Tuesday, The Fan on a Wed and then NRL 360 Sun- Tuesday.

I'm in the same boat, and agree.

Oh for sure, it is great value for money at approx £12 a month for all the content that you get, a rough list but i am sure i am missing things-

every game live (8 per round, not 6),
playback on all,
archived games,
All pre season games live,
NSW / QLD cup games live,
SOO live,
showcase games like indiginous / all stars live,
24/7 access to Fox League channel,
All their talkshows,
International games like the Pacific Cup.

They are stealing off people if they try to charge £20-30 for Super League+, no where near as much content from what they are saying.

A little tip for Watch NRL aswell, if you have a family member or mate you trust it is possible to share out the costs as you can watch in 2 different households simultaneously, or as of last season you still could. This makes it more like £6 a month for all that.

I did that initially. A mate of mine signed up for the year and gave me his log on details. I’ve just carried on buying since although I pay the yearly fee as it’s cheaper than paying monthly.

My only disappointment this year has been the lack of programmes in the off season. I think it was last season but Andrew Voss hosted a Classics show which was highlights of retro games from the 80s and 90s. That was brilliant and certainly helped to ease the non RL boredom but as far as I’m aware there’s been nothing this year.

I used to get the nrl on Premier sports, it can be hard trying to watch all the live games, it was good value. I signed up to nrl site and there have been lots of 80 90, 000 games on for free

Looks good value, especially for season ticket holders at £99 for the year.

The standard price is far too expensive for what it is imo.

As a comparison I can get actual sky sports on Now TV for £35 and access to all the different things they do Footy, Darts, some RL etc.

An NFL pass only £14 and that includes the excellent red zone too.

The standard price should have been closer if not lower than the one offered to season ticket holders.

I might dabble with the pay per view, working shifts means the season package is a waste of money for me

It's going to be the pay per view option for me too. Just Wigan games I can't get to.

Any news of it can only be streamed in the UK?

Won't let me quote for some reason, but the streaming service will be available internationally. Will actually be much better value outside of the UK, as they will get all games streamed live. In the UK we get the games that are not selected by Sky live, and the ones that are selected by Sky will be uploaded on a delay.

I was pretty optimistic when the service was announced. It was said it would be in line with Netflix, but it isn't and it's way too expensive. I'd be expecting it to enter at around £9.99 (they can always raise the price later if they think that is needed) and at that price I'd be 100% subscribing but £19.99 per month is just too much for what it is. Disappointing

Realistically the PPV is the best option.

I've got a season ticket, so all the home games are covered. Outside of that you'd expect 5 or 6 of the away games (Saints, Leeds, Wire, Cats as a min) will be on sky anyway. The PPV gives that ease of not having to travel for the few that aren't being shown.

Outside of that, i have zero interest in anything else on that platform.
