Agree - it's been invaluable for those of us who live too far away from y Parc to attend home matches regularly (when we could!) Plus seeing the away games has obviously been a bonus. I really hope Sky continue to show them all, but I don't reckon they will.

Because they didn't last time. I have only had access to EVERY league game since Premier had the tv rights

I’d hope that it would be a condition of any broadcast deal that every game has to be televised - either on a normal channel or red button or online. Agree that Sky would surely be a step up from Premier but I would worry about how many would watch it considering how expensive Sky is for anyone that doesn’t already have it.

Sky is the more expensive option. BT isn’t too bad. Amazon would be ideal. An absolute bargain.

I was hoping it would go to Amazon as I can't receive Sky but Now tv is an option as you can have it a month at a time. I'm with Talk talk and I can get Sky Sports for £20 a month for a year.

That's only accessing the games on your mobile at the cheaper price, is it? Or am I missing something?

The prices are tv and phone. There are cheaper passes for mobiles only.

If you see my previous objections, what I’m saying is that because everyone is taking the money, and the game goes behind a paywall, the only people who benefit will be salaried admins, coaches and players etc while the sport loses visibility to half its audience.
But if the sport goes behind a paywall in England, Scotland and NI but not in Wales people in Wales who are less into rugby will still be aware it’s on and can watch it, whereas in the other countries it will begin to become more niche. My partner’s nan can’t speak a word of Welsh, and is never going to buy sky BT or Amazon, but loves watching rugby on S4C

What’s he gonna do, pull Wales out of the six nations if it isn’t on S4C? He can fight for it but there’s not much else he can do. Early signs are that it’s going to Amazon. £11.98 to watch the six nations? Bargain.

Looks like the 6 nations will remain on BBC & ITV with Amazon happy to settle for Autumn International matches only.

Not compared to £0.00 though - maybe have a word with your accountant!
