It should certainly help clubs to get more and better sponsorship being televised throughout Europe.   

             one would hope so

What a cracking idea to screen live NL1 & Nl 2 games

I guess that we will be shown quite alot as we are one of the bigger clubs in the 2 leagues

I think if I was on the BoD I would have reservations about this.  Having a game like the Whitehaven v Castleford fixture moved to a Thursday night, we would lose out on a lot of income from Castleford's away support - likely thousands of pounds.  Would we get enough compensation to make up the difference?  Would the added sponsorship cancel out the lost income?  If the TV deal went through, I doubt we'd have the power to overrule the movement of a game to a Thursday night.

Having said that, it would still be great to see Whitehaven (and the other NL teams) on the TV regularly, but it would be interesting to know how the board feel about this.

ultimately i think this would be good for everyone it may generate more interest in rugby league in general.
Also kk would not get away with as much if the matches were televised

I dont know if EuroSport would stretch to errecting a big screen for each televised clash, a 12" portable in the club bar maybe.
