As much I as I love the NRL there is no way I would subscribe to Setanta to watch it.
Last year we only had freeview and subscribed to Setanta, but it was not made clear beforehand that you only got Setanta 1 and even then only from 12pm. So after missing loads of games as they did not even come on the right channel on rerun I cancelled with them, which is easier said than done believe me.
Now we have sky and would love to see some NRL as well, but not through Setanta.

I don't understand this as it isn't as if they clash. Not many Magners games are kicking off at 08:30/09:30 on a Fri/Sat or Sun. Very Odd. I suspect more to do with the £10 mill they have just had to stump up to the FA for the soccer, apparantly got behind in payments & missed a deadline, than anything to do with the Celtic Onion.

here is my reply from Shetanta.
Thank you for your e-mail.
Unfortunately due to unforseen scheduling issues, we have had to reduce the amount of NRL games shown until May. We are trying our best to increase the amount of games shown as soon as possible.

So different stories are going round, i wonder how many different versions we will get...
I'm 49, I've had a brain haemorrhage and a triple bypass and I could still go out and play a reasonable game of rugby union. But I wouldn't last 30 seconds in rugby league.

We are hoping to have the NRL Live games back up to 2+ games per week from May 2009. I apologise for any inconvenience cause, but as my colleague has explained, the cut down of live games is due to broadcasting rights.
Seems we all got a different answer. fecking time wasters.
