Heineken Cup TV coverage

[TarfHead]

SKY have live rights and, last season, RTE had rights to show highlights.

It kicks off again this weekend and I can't see any mention of any coverage on RTE.

Does anyone know if any station, other than SKY, will be showing highlights, e.g. ITV, Setanta, ESPN ?

I think there's an ongoing issue with RTE because of the Ministers ongoing work on Free to air. It may be last minute or not at all for RTE to get the coverage. Not sure if anyone else has it.

According to their website, S4C (Channel 4 Wales) will be showing highlights of the Heineken Cup, starting this weekend.

S4C is available on Sky channel 134

Thanks
Don't have SKY. And S4C would be focussed on the Welsh teams.

Fingers crossed that RTE can pull a rabbit out of a hat.

not looking good.

Anyone have any update to Eamon Ryan's attempts to get the matches on free TV?
