Look guys, I got a few sites where you can watch the games tonight and tomorrow, but don't post them in any forums.

PM me.

With 7 live games over two days I guess they were spoilt for choice :)

Doesn't this usually happen at the start of most seasons, and then they start showing the games live after a bit? When the NRL season starts or something?

I rang the programming department last week and their comment was "we don't know when we'll be showing any programmes, or if we've even got the rights anymore. The rights were being discussed, but we're not sure if we've got them or will be getting them. Super League doesn't rate anyway so it's not a priority and we don't have any further info"

In short, they don't know and they don't care.

Last season they started showing one out of two live games they had access to (usually the lower ranked games between the likes of Hull KR and Castleford, or Catalans v Harlequins rather than Leeds v Wigan or St Helens v Bradford etc) at 1am on a Monday.

Wankers.

They had Saints/Wigan at midnight last night but it was only an hour replay. Then they had Leeds/Bradford on straight afterwards for an hour. Better than nothing, which is what the TV guide said, but still prety ordinary. What else is on in the early hours that they can't even show the full replays?

Not on my TV it's not. Some current affairs thing called 20/20 is on.
Nothing next week scheduled either

Maybe you're in a different area.

Lets face it, Australian TV is years behide Britain and other places. The freedom to watch not just Super league or other sports is restricted too. Basically all the media in Oz whether it's TV, Newspapers , internet speed is woeful.

I'm sure in the not too distant future you'll be able to subsribe to sports like UK Super League through the club of themselves.

Channel 9 are just f**king us around again

There weren't any games on Nine in Sydney last weekend just gone from what I could see. Even though people have said they were on, I couldnt find any in the program and I was looking.
