How to watch rugby league on TV this week including Wigan Warriors v Leigh Leopards and Leeds Rhinos v Hull FC

The women’s Super League season starts this week, and the men’s competition returns, so here’s the information to watch every rugby league game on TV.

Super League had a hiatus last weekend with the Challenge Cup semi-finals for both the men’s and women’s competitions taking place. Hull KR and Warrington Wolves will contest the men’s match, whilst there’s a St Helens and Wigan Warriors derby for the women.

There’s plenty of women’s rugby league on TV this week with the launch of Super League as well as the second State of Origin game with Queensland looking to level the series.

That game is on Thursday morning with St Helens taking on Catalans Dragons in Super League on the evening as sixth hosts seventh.

Friday sees a rematch of the Round One clash between Wigan Warriors and Leigh Leopards, whilst Leeds Rhinos also take on Hull FC. Wigan’s women’s side take on 2024 champions York Valkyrie in the season launch at The Brick Community Stadium before Matt Peet’s side take to the field.

As always, the NRL is available to watch on Watch NRL with select games on TV as well, meaning there’s a total of 17 rugby league games available to watch this week. Below is a rundown of all the rugby league on TV this week.
