Because Championship games are of a lower standard of play, and they tend to bore viewers (except for Sheffield Eagles who have Garry Lo on the wing, and London Broncos who have Israel Eliab at five eighth).

No real problem with the decision to screen wigan and Catalans. As very close runners up last time, I don't mind casting an eye over wigan second game up.

Worry a little bit every day and in a lifetime you will lose a couple of years. If something is wrong, fix it if you can. But train yourself not to worry. Worry never fixes anything.

Then, next week, Saints v Salford! Who thought that'd be a good idea?

Poor show.


Probably the same people who put on the same game at the same time last year ?

Personally I'd be happy if they stuck with the same four or so teams each week I hate us being on tv, but hey ho we only have two or three a season to bother you with.

Salford v Saints by the way.

I agree about our game v Saints, its been the same for two years in a row, one of the first home games pf the season on Sky and one was 52-6 and the other 52-0 you'd think they'd of learnt their lesson but on the other hand there was a time when Salford v Saints on Sky used to throw up some right classics.

Hopefully third time lucky it'll be a lot closer than a 50 point drubbing.

Saints v Hudds would have been the better choice but I can't see Wigan v Catalans being a walkover, many of the team haven't played a game of pre-season and those that did looked poor against Salford. We are also missing both Tomkins brothers and Crosby. Catalans have a good squad this year and surely their major focus through the off-season will be all about winning away.

Surely the reason Wigan v Catalan was chosen is because Sky always show last years grand finalists first up, hence Leeds being on last night.

It will probably be one sided, but you never know. I can understand how they want to show Wigan's 1st home game on Sky, albeit against a side who hardly ever win away from home.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Re: Choice of TV games : Fri Feb 05, 2016 6:47 pm  
Thankfully Sam Tomkins isn't playing - the eulogising from Eddie that would go on if he were would be truly sickening
