2006 Superleague TV Times

[Evil Homer]

Challenge Cup games are covered on BBC,which is free-to-air.

 

[AlbertRosenfeld]

Does ABC International Asia Pacific TV broadcast any of these games?

 

[hutch]

still not good enough from fox sports, only 2 games a week after it has been played, at mostly unreasonable times. they could do so much better.

 

[jed]

Only two games a week are broadcast in the UK, NZ and France as well.

Fox Sports is actually prevented from showing games any earlier due to reasons I won't go into.

If you want to see the ESL broadcast more often in peak times, perhaps suggest to people that they let Fox Sports know that you want things shown in peak time.

But if 'Fox Sports is prevented ....' is there a point in 'bashing' the people at Fox?

 

[jed]

Fox Sports can change the timeslot that it's shown in, they can't do anything about getting games to air live or same day delayed.

 

[JasonE]

The excitement is really building, i can't wait for the games.

so only challenge cup games on FTA - looks like I won't get to see much this year then... the pubs will have soccer on all the time

You might have a bit of luck,it's soccer's off-season for most of the RL season.There aren't normally games played on Friday nights or Saturdays when RL is shown anyway,so you should be able to find a pub that will be willing to show the RL.

Failing that,if you can get BBC's northern programming then there is a magazine programme called The Super League Show on Sundays.I'm not sure of the exact times and it's not a great watch,but there are good highlights of all the games played so far in the weekend.

cheers mate

 

[SalfordRedsWA]

Are Salford shown on any early rounds on Sky?

 

[jed]

Fairly sure they're on in March, just waiting for the embargo on the games to be lifted.

 

[ParraDude_Jay]

Just wondering why the games today have changed to ESL Grand Final and World Club Challenge?

I was looking foward to them too :x.

 

[Jono078]

Argh bloody hell!

I just found out now, I was looking forward to them aswell, what rubbish!

 

[freeridermx]

yeah same question . want to see them as well .

 

[The Tank]

I'm so pissed, I've been hanging for those games all week, especially Catalans match.

 

[Heritage XIII]

I rang up fox today and complained. The guy smuggly said "oh you're the first"and the call centre must be in Victoria because he kept rattling on about Rugby and giving me the Super 14 schedule. I did finally get that the games scheduled for Saturday Morning are the Cas v Hull, Wigan v Catalan games

I recently subscribed to foxtel... every single person I dealt with tried to tell me rugby league is Super 14.

There must be a S14 marketing push on.

aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrgggggggghhhh. how annoying, i even left work early for the games. everbody go to the website, click on the faq section and complain. super league gets rotten treatment by foxtel. they show the games when most people are at work or asleep. why the hell do they show euro union games at decent times when rugby league is the highest rating program on all of foxtel. aaarrrrghhhh
