TBF - The product we are delivering on offer atm is very substandard. Sky must be concerned with the fact that we are showing stop start games, and sin bins galore which is now becoming difficult to watch, hence, we have been relegated to a streaming platform.


Sky should probably raise the sinbin issue with the players who, despite ample warning, still keep whacking each other around the head every week.

They only play that game for an hour, but it takes as long as test cricket to finish. Our game isn't what it used to be, but I'd be totally done with it should 4 quarters etc. etc. were brought into SL.

Similar to golf, seems to do better with sponsors, also more advertising breaks.

Many, or most of them are not deliberate. This is an high intensity game when it's difficult to adjudicate a tackle that starts on the chest/shoulder, and slightly moves up on collision to the head. Does anyone think that a player is playing to try and get sin binned? I switched off twice over the weekend due to the contest had been ruined due to yellowcards changing the whole outcome of the game. It really has got ridiculous.

To be honest, the was SL is going I'm not bothered if I can't see every game......but if they stopped showing the NRL, then it would be immediate cancellation of my subscription!

Have you looked into Watch NRL? £120 for a year subscription, every game live and then available for streaming. Also all the Fox rugby programmes.

I love it.

Funnily enough I've only recently tuned into the NRL and yes I get the 'different game/higher intensity/cleaner PTB....' BUT admittedly from limited viewing, they seem a bit more forgiving about high shots, those 50/50's where an arm slid up off the chest or a great step or falling ball carrier affects the tackle technique.

So I'm with Cokey here, there's not many instances of people deliberately clothes-lining the opposition's star man to end their game time and most should be ten minutes sufficient unless you are a repeat offender or playing Warrington the following week.

Apologies if it's been covered, but is there any way to watch the red button games on the sky sports app? I couldn't find it the other week and I think we're on there tonight? I won't be able to see the game on a TV is all. Cheers for any input!

We could do with Salford & Catalans playing out of their skins this weekend.
