Australian Foxtel Coverage of SL

[leaguerules]

How are they going to cover the super league this i remeber reading or hearing they may cover live games or show the games jst a bit delayed

or are they going to do the same that they have been doing the last few years

 

[Matt M]

I think the best way they could do it would be to show the Friday Night ESL game on Saturday Arvo instead of the Friday night NRL game, which most people would have already seen anyway. Then have the second ESL match some other time.

Hull v Leeds is an incredible game to start the season, Hull have a few out but i don't expect to see Danny Mc fit to play either so it will be a close one.

 

[bartman]

I'm keen to see the Giants in action too - I think they'll be a bit of a surprise packet this season?

 

[leaguerules]

oxford vs cambridge is that big deal game never heard of it

I think it's great that SKY shows this game.

 

[Matt M]

How big is that game? Because I know the union one is pretty big.

 

[bartman]

I'm not sure it's as big as the Union equivalent, but it's good that league is getting a run (and is televised) at Uni level.

But that game won't make it to Foxtel in Australia that's for sure!
