Big thanks go to Chris for sending this over

Back to the Premiership games after the excitement of the European championship. The Saints host Newcastle, yet to win this season but with Saints losing 7 players to the international call ups it will be interesting to see the Saints team how they play the game. It is broadcast on TNT extra which is on the red button for Virginmedia viewers. It is not on PRTV.

There is only one United Rugby game on between two SA teams. There are a few Top 14 games on.

This week there are 9 games.

According to the Saints fixture list, the Newcastle match is on PRTV live.

I think originally it was on PRTV, however it is now on the TNT red button(sky/Virgin)/Discovery + app/TNT Sports 5. It is not available on PRTV anymore, none of this weekends matches are

Seems strange it’s still showing PRTV on the Saints fixture list.
TNT it is then!

This is just my opinion, but I feel like PRTV may well be on it's way out and we will see the matches migrate to the red button/Discovery + etc as TNT try to get better value for what they have paid or perhaps a move by PRL to try and drive a better deal next time round.

I was thinking much the same just this morning Saint Ted. Might be a little peeved if I’d bought a PRTV season ticket…

I guess not many did that though. Glad I have the discovery app, see all games for free

Great - red button doesn’t work half the time and isn’t available if watching on an iPad so that’s the game unwatchable for me then!
