It's funny how sky advertise football and ram it as far down everyones throat as they can months before a game but when it comes to a grand final you get 3 or 4 mentions a week if you're lucky. If its a big RL derby game well then there's nothing whatsoever.

We're not cared about in the slightest. they just offer us above minimum and the RFL stands there cap in hand thanking them for it.

The grand final was advertised during pretty much every ad break throughout the World Grand Prix of Darts all week in the run up to the Grand Final.

I assume everyone has ordered their 4 Nations tickets, to help fill the stadia and showcase our sport on the BBC over the next few weeks?

According to the Daily Fail Sky got 3M viewers for the LFC vs MUFC game on Monday. Sky Super league games get 300k at best. [1] [1] http://www.totalrl.com/super-league-tv- ... -new-high/

Sky paid £4 Bn for a 3 yr deal to show live football, whilst just £200M for a 5 yr deal for RL.

So I know which one I'd be marketing the hell out of too to get my ROI.

Well more fool them for pumping football up to the ridiculous heights it has done.

They don't seem to be televising that any more. Shame really, push halfpenny is a great game and has been played for over a hundred years, but Sky just seem to wan't to blank it.

Ladbrokes involvement in RL must be like sticking pins under his fingernails to Fred Done.
He's come into RL in a big way.
Betfred will likely do more for the marketing of SL than any other sponsorship deal has had before him.
