Newsum is pretty dreadful. Sick of hearing him use the phrase "throwing some shape" when a team is attacking.

Newsome sounds like he is heading for a heart attack with all that shouting.

And he ain't seen my shape yet !

I’d bring in John Inverdale, just to watch him squirm.

Well I'll be going to less games because of the travel costs (and to a lesser extent - time constraints).
£50 in petrol or more than that by train (If they actually run).
I'll be getting Now TV.
I do agree about not seeing the full picture on tv or getting the atmosphere, and whilst I like the idea of more games being shown, I do fear for 'overload'.
I used to arrange what I did depending on who Wire were playing or when they were on tv. Not quite the same now.
Nevertheless I am hopeful for Sam's first year.

With Jeremy Guscott on co-commentary...

Had the 'pleasure' of bumping into John Inverdale in a pub in Media City Salford.

He's as odious as they come, complained about being made to work in Salford rather being sent on Outside Broadcast to some Swimming Gala in eastern Germany...

I just smiled and said it could be worse you might have to live here, he looked at me puzzled, so I added win win.

I'm looking to swap NOW TV for the new SL streaming service. I think you get all the games but with the option to watch them on demand (it's a big ask to commit to all the games at the actual times they're on... imagine what the wife will say?).

I’m just happy it’s not an extra subscription if you already have Sky Sports.

My understanding is Sky will televise every game of the first 15 weeks, after that they will go on a subscription service (whether they are showing the first 15 games to deter people switching from Sky to RFL service, or just because they haven't got it ready yet I don't know.).

As Sky have exclusivity on 2 games a week I assume they will not be available live via the RFL (but maybe with a 2/3 day delay?)
