It shouldn't even be called The Superleague Show, it should be called 'Sky Repeats'.

It's ok if you don't have sky but I would like to see extended highlights of non-televised games, (and by extended I mean 'not just the tries'). I know this would be difficult because there's hardly any cameras at the other games, but there is at least one.

It will be really good when the Challenge Cup is on the BBC next week, when that woman from horse racing doesn't know a thing about rugby league and gets all the players names wrong.

apparently Jordan Tansey is an experienced Australian and we have a player called Kevin Senior.

Harry's style seems to be based on that chap who sells 'Open Rugby' (or whatever they call it nowadays) up at Headingley.

Matched his socks too. Very sharp.

It's a very poorly produced programme imo, just one example of this was
Ray French's commentary on the Wakey v Saints match, It was appalling to say the least, he or the BBC for that matter could not have made it any clearer to the watching public if he/they had tried, that his voice over was done after the game had ended

The BBC treat RL as a "filler sport", which they clearly use to their advantage by showing games when they see fit, It's distinctively noticeable how their stance and their TV coverage changes once the Rugger boys are in action!
