Straight back to the Red button crap, Leigh vs Wigan and Cas vs Hull KR on normal Sky channels this week so the rest on Red button.
At least theres 2 NRL pre-season games on as well, i'll be watching more NRL this year. Dropped off the past 2 years so time for a re-fresh

It's the NZ Maori vs Indigenous Australians this weekend. Always a good pre-season work out.

Oh nice i must have missed it, will go set a recording for it

Just checked and Sky aren't showing it unless again, it's bloody Red Button. Are Red button stuff available to watch at a later date or is it one shot and done?

Only saw one full game shown at a later date on catch up. Just hope at some point these streamed games can be recorded.

Awesome cheers
Just saw the BBC are showing a game each week for the first 3 weeks, so at least 3 recordable games for the first 3 weeks at least.
Red button isn't the end of the world, but with Working, kids, busy schedules etc it traps you in to having to "Book" time and the TV to watch us. I know everybody is different but i rarely get the chance to watch a live game so miss mmost of ours if tgey aren't on normal Sky channels.
I can't really get to live games anymore with how busy i am, so i hope we're on often on normal channels

Maybe one day we maybe able to record streamed games, maybe not in my life time but can live in hope.

You shouldn't need to record them. They should be available on demand immediately just like all the NRL games are on my Watch NRL subscription. It's bonkers in 2025 that people are talking of recording...

It’s the UK we do a lot of things slower than the rest of the world these days.
