Magic Weekend TV guide: fixtures, kick-offs, channel info for Leeds Rhinos v Warrington Wolves & others
Archchair fans can watch 480 minutes of top-flight rugby league action live over the next two days, without having to stand up to find the TV remote.
Betfred Super League’s entire Magic Weekend, at Leeds United’s Elland Road, will be shown live on one of Sky Sports’ main channels. The broadcaster switched most of its rugby league coverage to the red button service on the new Sky Sports+ from last week, but that’s not the case this weekend.
That means every game will be available on Sky Go and can be recorded, with a scheduled 30-minute build-up to kick-off. None of the Magic Weekend fixtures will be shown live in the UK by the BBC or the competition’s one streaming service SuperLeague+.
Here’s how to watch all six Magic Weekend matches.
Saturday, August 17: Hull FC v London Broncos (2.30pm kick-off), Sky Sports Action from 2pm; Wigan Warriors v St Helens (5pm), Sky Sports Action, from 4.30pm; Warrington Wolves v Leeds Rhinos (7.30pm), Sky Sports Action, from 7pm.
Sunday, August 18: Leigh Leopards v Salford Red Devils (1.30pm), Sky Sports Action, from 1pm; Catalans Dragons v Hull KR (4pm), Sky Sports Action, from 3.30; Huddersfield Giants v Castleford Tigers (6.30pm), Sky Sports Action, from 6pm.
