It would appear that the televising of all fixtures next season will see two games featured on Sky and the other four on a rfl subscription platform rather like what happened in the past on Our League and it would be nice to think that a portion of the income from that would go to the relevant participating clubs, however I guess thats unlikely. The game appears to be in a bit of a mess at present with the Salford news yesterday and this morning a Club Chairman coming out and openly criticising the Board of the RFL in the media and IMG who he says have graded his club without even visiting it.

Genuine question - why do you think that?

What I’ve seen previously suggested it to be a pay for performance deal.

Its what I though also but it for work the digital arm of IMG has already done for the clubs apparently.

Yeh Ive read that twice now!

I would give heavily discounted tickets for away members - help with travel costs & allow more to travel.

I think would also boost membership sales so everybody's a winner.

Captains challenge a positive - 1 per game only ( unless it is correct ), occasionally it is used flippantly towards the end of a game to get a breather but very rarely. Even their bunker puts our joke alternative to shame - hopefully the additional ( or at least some ) cameras will reduce the number of duff calls. A stopwatch on our referrals and the NRL's would clearly show the problem. OUR game way more stop start than the NRL.
