Couldn’t Sky plug into that as they have exclusive rights and provide commentary from the HJ stadium. Or, better still, just show the game with no commentary! Believe me they did you all a favour by not showing it!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having watched it I would imagine the negativity would have been huge on this forum if more had watched on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn’t actually that far off the mark if the games are at Wigan, Hull and Huddersfield. All of the cabling that takes hours and hours to sort out at your average SL ground is actually hard-wired in as ‘plug in and play’ as part of Premier League minimum stadium standards.

Aye, it does rather ignore all of the other logistics though that are at play. Im packing for a camping trip and spent considerably more than 7 hours doing that and I haven't got a thing in the car yet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Davy spoke at length about it a few months back So the answer to my question is that it isn't a live broadcast for non-Sky games as streaming is a very different set up. So in reality not very different at all to the current situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redjonn Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I guess as a business if something is important enough you plan contingencies... One or the other or both don't see it as important enough. I mean we are still in covid times and likelihood of cancellations at short notice are relatively high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scubby Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Was watching an NRL show last week and they were saying each fixture is worth about $A2m in broadcast money. Hence, why they have yet to lose a fixture to Covid. It's all about value and money in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
