So basically the games get released after the weekend, regardless of when they were played.

I think.
Sky rule probably...
It is down to Sky, copyright or something

It was played at St Helens & I suppose the club would have to request it from them as I would think the Wigan TV staff would be in France.
Fair enough. You would think that we could have an agreement with Saints though.

For sure its a Sky exclusive rights thing, they pay a lot of cash for the exclusivity.
I've seen a few posters saying that games are "missing" from WiganTV they are not - the annoying thing is that games are not easy to find if you just look in the playlists for, say, the Reserves - games are not listed but they are on the site. Taking Reserves as a case in point, the away game at Saints is on Wigan TV, away games are the "property" of the home team - if they did bother to film the Academy game it might appear on our site.
