Hi, I recently moved to Canada and I am REALLY missing watching superleague (even with Wigan playing so dire!!!)

does anyone have any suggestions how/where I can find Wigan games to see within a reasonable timespan of them showing on Sky?

edit for spelling

The BBC i player has the super league show on it each week.

Its only highlights, but usually 5 minutes is enough of Wigan at the moment.

yes bbc iplayer is UK only - if foreigners watch it, would be seen as we pay for it (tv license) whilst others get it free

Why did you change your name from Pat to Pharabus?

I was watching Trailer Park Boys last night, Bubbles stole the Patrick Swayze Express to send weed to America for Sebastian Bach! Love it!

It is on Paramount Comedy Channel every now and then but a friend at work who spends all his spare time on the net introduced me to it.
