Sky get first exclusive pick of a game a round which means BBCNI can't show Ulster.

I presume Leinster v Treviso will be bottom of the list. Hopefully TG4 will fire up the red button again and have the Connacht and Munster games going.

Somebody better tell BBC NI that, because the game is in their schedules for Saturday.

You've got to expect sky to show either the Connacht or Munster game. They are the two with the most riding on it for both teams. I would imagine they'd pick the Connacht Glasgow game.

TG4 and Sky both showed the Connacht v Munster game. No reason that BBC NI and Sky won't both show Ospreys v Ulster.

Sky had another match exclusively that weekend didn't they?

Homesick Alien

Yeah I think Sky get one match exclusively e.g. last weekend it was Ulster v Leinster, and they can show as many of the other games as they want (non-exclusively). You'd imagine (and I hope) they'd go for Connacht V Glasgow and leave TG4 to show Munster v Scarlets. Nearly every game has something riding on it though. I guess everyone's waiting for Sky to make a call.

Interesting.

It would be great to have a Sky Sports football style minute by minute updates going around the grounds but I know that won't happen.

If Sky went for Connacht vs Glasgow then many viewers in the west wouldn't see this match live whereas with TG4 coverage more would.

I don't think Sky really care. Anyway looks like it's the Ulster v Ospreys match they're going for.

lazybones32

Nuvolari are showing a game that is of no interest to us here. TG4 I think tweeted that they will be showing Connacht; Sky have Ulster; S4C will show a game and BBC Wales will show a game. BBC Alba don't have rugby scheduled.

Sickening isn't it. It's been almost a week since the last Leinster game was on tv. I bet that's Enda Kennys fault.

Strange decision of BBC2W to show Edinburgh vs Cardiff as Cardiff have nothing to play for. Edinburgh have very slim chance of CC qualification so I suppose those with satellite in Scotland who support Edinburgh will see this game. Saorview red button has favoured Munster rather than Leinster as Leinster match is probably seen as a foregone conclusion.

Is that not the case no matter who Sky show?

To be fair the Leinster Treviso does have things riding on it. IF Treviso somehow managed to win they'd qualify for the Champions Cup and Leinster could miss out on a home semi final.

Every game has something to play for which is brilliant for the league. There is hope for it yet!

Teferi

Glad they'll have a few cameras at the Leinster game anyway, in case of plays/scores that effect other results.

Yes but the point I was making was that the OP was hoping Connacht vs Glasgow was Sky's exclusive pick and if this had been the case many viewers out west would have missed out. Much better that the top 2 sides in the League are shown live on TG4 which has greater number of viewers than if it had been shown exclusively on Sky.

Yeah_Right

I think it's disgraceful that all the games are on that same time. There should be one on Friday night, 3 on Saturday afternoon/night and then 2 on Sunday afternoon. That way I get to watch them all live.

And all on free-to-air TV, with English-language commentary, and Nigel Owens to ref all six games.

Connacht v Glasgow is on:
- TG4
- BBC One Scotland (this can be received through a Sky box or other satellite received, see below).

The Munster v Scarlets game is on:
- Saorview red button
- UPC channel 602.
- TG4.ie
- S4C (channel 134 on Sky)

Ospreys v Ulster is on:
- Sky Sports 1
- BBC Northern Ireland

Leinster v Treviso: NO coverage

I'd actually rather they were all on Sky. I like their rugby coverage.

And like b.gud said, Ulster has to reffed by Lacey (or Clancy).

Don't forget if you watch Connacht vs Glasgow on BBC1 Scotland it should be in HD.

Fnal round is interesting.

I continue to have my doubts about connacht, and let's just say losing to the italians didn't ease them. I'll go for Glasgow in that one. Ulster are probably the best in the league on their day, they showed that with their demolition job on leinster, I'll back them to beat ospreys, but it won't be easy. Munster should be able to beat scarlets, but the scarlets will be fighting for that 4 th spot.

So a relatively good weekend for the provinces.
