We played Warrington on Ch4 last year before we played them in the cup

Tv games are boring same teams play each other on tv all the time and sky commentary is so bad I’d rather not watch. Surely the split on tv should be equal given the video ref could have an impact on some results too

Its based on how many people tune in, typically more people watch matches involving the bigger clubs with larger support. Trinity are a small drawcard unless it became car crash tv with a relegation fight.

I do not watch S L matches on T V same 6 teams on every week .Better get use to it as that is all you will get when we get grade A Teams .Got to admit if it was not Australian R L, Darts and Cricket would not have Sky Sports.Can not stand sports were there is glorified cheating and that is what R L in this country is turning in to .As you can guess will not be watching Football W C now that is a sport that stinks big time

If we can start to win a few, playing "attractive" RL, neutrals will enjoy watching (much easier said than done.
Equally, if we show up well against some of the more fancied sides, this too will make people tune in or, better still, turn up and watch.

Is there actually any separate payments for being televised? I presumed it's just part of the Sky Sports deal and, as such, just shared out equally amongst the clubs. Advantages of not being televised include bigger attendance and control of match day. Only advantage, unless there is extra income from SKY , is improved exposure for sponsors and players themselves.
Wonder which MC/JM prefer?

Two teams you've mentioned here, both fantastic stadia and both playing to full houses every home game, add to that both were expected to have very good seasons last year, ideal for marketing the Sky product, without hindsight did you expect both clubs to have bad seasons, although in Leeds case they did come good in the end.
