Sky Sports Xtra
Friday night
Castleford Tigers v Hull FC

Sunday
Salford Red Devils v Wakefield

Both games can watch over the Internet

Good luck with that, hope they've updated the app or whatever it is as the last time I tried watching on SSE it varied from it saying I didn't have the correct subscription to just coming up with a fault. I tried on windows, mac and ipad. The mac and Ipad never got going, the windows one worked til half time then errored out.

I watched the FC game last time via my iPad, no problem whatsoever.

Watched the wakie game was very tbh

Whilst the frequency of Leeds/Saints/Wigan games is annoying, it is understandable, they're the best teams. As has been said I don't know that Hull fans can be particularly pulled out of shape by their lack of airtime in the Super 8s. No disrespect but you're dreadful to watch.
I have always previously thought that sky's coverage was far superior to the BBC's but that seems to have changed this year. Not sure who the commentator on Rovers v Wire was on Saturday but he was excellent, far better than anyone on Sky. I'd love to see some more games on the beeb.

Dave Woods with excellent (as always) input from John Kear. They need to dump the Welsh Rugby Onion reporter though and RHP prancing about on the pitch.

Think the BBC is better to watch and it would be even better if they got rid of the Welsh squawker.His voice is just not meant for commentating.Robbie Hunter Paul prancing about on the pitch is just a blatant copy of the NRL coverage,only difference is that they have real ex superstars doing it.Oh for an English Andrew Voss who talks with common sense and good humour (and he likes patties)

mainly listen to the radio commentaries on 5 sports extra. if i want to watch, then the internet is my friend

The RFL ‏@TheRFL 3m3 minutes ago
.At start of season the SL clubs each put £80k into a shared pool from which they receive payments (of their own money) for hosting TV games

looks like fc and pearson have been well and truely duped and ripped off! no home games=no money!

?? You were on Sky two weeks ago weren't you?

You've had a few home games, Leeds, HKR, Widnes, Wigan not sure if any more.

I quite like RHP's analysis, albeit fairly shallow. It doesn't actually have any need to be on the pitch though, that's a gimmick. Think you're maybe a little harsh in doubting him as an ex superstar. I know the NRL have Lockyer and Johns doing theirs but a quick look at past British stars shows why RHP fits the bill, most others are still playing/not available.

These are for the super 8s and middle 8s I believe, could be wrong. The reason leigh are moaning

although sky are drooling over the super 8s it looks a little flat and crowd looks poor

I thought that, Eddie was trying to big up the fact that this is the what the super 8's is all about every 5 mins but the crowd looked pretty low compared to other Wigan home games and the whole thing felt a bit preseason. Maybe it was due to it being a Thursday game, tonight's should be a step up.

Thursday night against Huddersfield to launch the Super 8s? Whose bright idea was that?

The distance from target flashing up at every tackle is a joke . Are people really that stupid , Is it really necessary. Hope it finds it's way to the same place Phil Clarks predictor meter went .

This season in Aus we are receiving Sky through Fox Sports and it is the finest coverage of Engish Rugby League we have ever had here by a million miles.

Have known Stevo since I watched his first Penrith game back in the early 70's when he played with Bill Ashurst, one of my favourite all time UK back rowers.

Crowds have been down all round which is a concern and it's a bit baffling as season pass holders are still getting in free. I know it's summer holiday time but these are meant to be 'all to play for' games.
