Setanta are cutting their NRL games down to 1 a week instead of the 2 or3 they can show. They advertise a minimum of 2 games a week for subscribers. They are doing this for the next 2 months. Apparently they explained to a Wigan fan that they were covering extra Magners Rugby Union games. I have sent a strongly worded email threatening to cancel my subscription if the NRL games are not reinstated. I would like as many as possible to email them and complain, if enough do it could possibly sway things. http://www.setanta.com/uk/Contact-Us/

If this is the case where they are only going to show just one live game a week for the next 2 months then i will be cancelling my subscription, like you say above they advertised 2 games a week for subscribers and its not what we will be getting.

The schedule for next week has just the 1 game as well, either they give us what they advertised or i can see them losing quite a few customers because if what you say is true then they will be treating RL as a minority sport along with its fans being treated as minority customers as they make room for more yawnion games.

I wouldn't have thought they'd be able to advertise something they won't be offering. I'm not clued up about the media, law or anything like that, but isn't it false advertisement?

Considering their financial situation it's the last thing they need, losing a sizeable percentage of subscribers.

Is it still possible to view highlights on the NRL site?

Highlights, full games etc.

Just leave them to load for a while.

They are actually showing two games this week

Broncos v Storm today (Thursday) at 13:00 obviously not live

Eels v Raiders on Saturday at 08:30

But next week there is only one scheduled as mentioned in a previous post.

Quote from their site

THE BEST OF THE NRL

Setanta also has the pick of the Action from the NRL in Australia so you can ensure you don't miss out as we broadcast a minimum of 2 LIVE matches per round of the regular season, plus the Semi-Finals, Finals & Grand Final as well as the State of Origin Matches.

May be this requires complaints to be sent to the Advertising Standards Authority

To compouond this, the followong Friday there is nothing on at all! Teleshopping is on it's slot!

It can't be money surely, as they have paid for the rights it is a live feed from Australia.

There is at least one positive - I've been weighing up that Midnight Soul Collection CD Box Set for ages. This gives me another chance to check it out.

Have you got a link please?
