Has anyone seen any viewing figures for Round 1 of the Championship?

No !

Their has been so crowing that they were good, but The RFL & The BBC have low standards anytime!

It's The Goins on Sky that need to GO and Fast! Last night we are seeing a repeat of some action, when Leeds take a penalty and miss touch, that just not be important to viewers? The two ex players are simple idiots, who would ever take them serious?

Cheers jaybs. Guess its easy for them to say they are good but produce no figures. I would have assumed given the way people sign up for it, they would know exactly how many were watching at any given time. Would have thought the clubs would want specifics to ensure they don't get ripped off of their share of the revenue too.

How did Stuart Pike ever get the role with Sky? Commentator tonight, always sounds as if his false teeth a slipping out, but it's only Rugby League, does it matter?

Rugby League has always been the "jeux sans frontières" of British sport, the BBC leading the way with comic commentators Eddie Wearing & Ray French. Must now be Sky's turn now from what you say.

I don't expect the viewing figures are that great but I have been impressed with the coverage of Broncos games on Our League so far. Certainly better than the BBC had for our cup game when no replays were available.

Union never seems to be covered in the way RL is! Agree Our League has been better than Sky or the BBC with commentary.

Could it be the amateurs are now quite professional while the professionals have become quite amateur?

The Catalan match, I've never heard a co-presenter make so many mistakes pronouncing simple words, as mouthy Barry did!
