Super League Show

2018

Episode 2

Duration: 50 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC One North WestLatest broadcast: on BBC Two HD

Tanya Arnold presents highlights from an historic week for rugby league as Wigan and Hull FC take their Super League fixture to the other side of the world. Their round-two clash takes place in Wollongong, Australia, the first time a Super League match has ever been played outside Europe.

The teams have travelled to Australia to help promote the competition to a new audience, and with all-important competition points at stake, are expecting a match every bit as intense as their meeting in the 2017 Challenge Cup final. Champions Leeds are also in unfamiliar surroundings as they host Hull Kingston Rovers at Elland Road. The Rhinos have temporarily moved to the home of Leeds United whilst rebuilding work continues on their own Headingley stadium. Newly promoted Rovers now include Danny McGuire in their ranks, the man who captained Leeds to their Super League success in 2017. Catalans Dragons are at home to St Helens, Huddersfield play Warrington, Wakefield are at home to Salford and Castleford play Widnes. Show less
