       Prem Rugby Cup?
   DIR By: Bucksquin

       Despite diligent research, I have been unable to find which (if
       any) of these second-team matches will be shown on TV. The
       suggestion appears to be that TNT/Discovery+ has the franchise,
       but they appear not to have publicised any of them yet, even
       though the games are nearly upon us. Does anyone have any intel?
       And before you ask, no, I am not going to "ring the club."

       I don't think TNT/Discovery are showing them, all seems to be AI
       and our PWR game against Saracens this Sunday And the GH match
       next sunday and the rugby 745 match for Mnd.

       If it's not being televised, maybe on the app or on YouTube?

       Nothing showing on this for the Prem Cup, but Croatia v Denmark
       is available tonight.

       Perhaps the production company that TNT use lack the capacity to
       cover these games and the AI's , they also provided the pictures
       for the womens RWC and were buying equipment at the last minute,
       including buying every single unit of one type of sennheiser
       headphone in Europe.

       I doubt that's got anything to do with it; TNT have a contract
       with PRL. If it involves showing some PRC games then they will
       but they don't usually show many.

       I would be surprised if the contract is not reflective of
       capacity and also not competing against the international
       matches that cost them a lot of money.
       If Amazon had won the bid for the AI’s, TNT would be showing the
       PRC games, as it is they are showing the PWR Sunday matches.
       The broadcast contracts are complicated and capacity is limited,
       if you are providing the camera coverage, and not just picking
       up the pictures.
       The PRC is 3 on the list of priorities and probably does not
       draw that many viewers, and it would be surprising if that was
       not reflected in the broadcast rights.

       TNT have to agreed to show "selected" PRC matches; they have
       agreed to show one match from every round of the PWR.
