Sky Sports lock in 12 Super League picks with 10 clubs chosen for ‘exclusive’ broadcast
Here's how to watch all the rugby league on TV this weekend.
Sky Sports have locked in their ‘exclusive’ game picks for the next six rounds in Super League, with ten of the competition’s 12 teams chosen at least once.
As confirmed in a press release published on Wednesday morning, Sky have made their exclusive picks for rounds 14 to 19 inclusive.
Each week, every single Super League fixture is broadcast, but four are solely shown via the Super League+ Red Button/App (unless the BBC also opt to show one of those).
The other two are opted for as ‘exclusive’ picks by Sky, meaning those games get a full pre-match build-up and post-match coverage including a presenter, pundits and a pitch side reporter, usually in the shape of Jenna Brooks.
