We’re well into the post-season international window, meaning there’s plenty more rugby league on TV this week to get your teeth into.
If you fancy getting your fix early on Saturday, New Zealand’s men face Tonga in the Pacific Cup in a game live on Sky Sports (channel unconfirmed) and Watch NRL – with kick-off at 7.05 am UK time.
However, if you miss that, there’s then a double-header of action coming to you from Headingley Stadium.
First up, England women face Wales on BBC Two with a midday kick-off in their second game of the year, and after three games in a row without conceding a single point: scoring 168 points in that time.
Then, England men face Samoa in the second and final game of the two-game series – which could confirm the series victory. This game is at 2:30 pm, and coverage comes from BBC One at 2:00 pm.
The rugby league doesn’t stop there as on Sunday, Women’s Pacific Cup action arrives in the small hours of the morning – Papua New Guinea face New Zealand at 2.55 am on Sky Sports and Watch NRL.
Then, the Men’s Pacific Bowl sees the men’s PNG side face the Cook Islands on Sky Sports and Watch NRL, with a peculiar kick-off time of 5.09 am.
Looking further forward, next Sunday looks to be an exciting day of action as Sky Sports and Watch NRL will bring the finals of the Pacific Bowl and Pacific Cup competitions, which all promise to be intriguing affairs.
