Hey guys, I'm heading to the UK for 6 months for a well earned rest! I would like to know that where I can watch any Storm games in the UK. I'm also gonna take my laptop over with me, any sites or links that will allow me to watch Storm/NRL games? I know this is a public forum, so I can tell you my private email and you can email me some suggestions.

Cheers

This is the AUS RL forum at TotalRL.
Not sure what part of the UK you're heading to Sarge,so ask the guys on there.
They should be able to give you good info.
This place lists most of the RL TV & Radio coverage.
You'll notice the NRL games are on "Premier Sports" - This is a 'Pay TV Network'
Hope this helps ?

Guys and girls, thank you all so much for your information. Yes it is a bad time to head off overseas as the Storm boys are in fine form, but I should have gone this time last year, but due to work and uni, was unable to do so. This has been 12 months in planning and at the end of the day, Storm will start again next year and I'll be hear for that! I will be in Leeds for 5 and a half months on student exchange, I have already bought tickets to the Four Nations double header at Wembley in November. Leeds Rhinos wont contest the ESL final, but I would love to see Storm v Wigan World Club Challenge at DW Stadium in February.

I'm going to a rugby league city, which is all right I suppose (shame bout the football side there in Leeds, as I can't stand them and they are utter shite!!)

Thanks again

Is Premier Sports a bit like what Setanta is here on Foxtel? So I would dare say that most pubs would have Premier Sports, along with Sky?

Glad to see that the Storm boys get some love from our UK cousins!

While in the UK in May I met a Lot of people who said STORM were their fave Aussie team. I even went into a sports store in Wigan to buy a storm scarfe for my friend over there and I was told STORM stuff sell the quickest of any team and they were waiting on another shipment of Storm merchandise.
