SKY have the game by the balls, they could tell us games are on at 2am on a Tuesday morning and we'd have no say in the matter.
He who pays the piper.. and all that!
Too be fair, even the Premier League is, too a degree, subservient to the whims of Sky/TNT, and that competition has way more clout than Rugby League.
Without the Sky money RL would no longer be viable in its current set-up. We have no choice but to tug our forelock and fall in line with these sudden decisions unfortunately.
