NRL officials have arrived in England to discuss a landmark investment deal with Super League, nearing completion after both leagues finalised their broadcast deals. The NRL’s A$5.3bn TV deal is done, while Super League’s new broadcast package, expected to feature Sky Sports showing 2-3 games weekly, will be announced shortly.

Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves will host a weekend in Dublin in 2027, with a potential capacity crowd of 20,000 at Leinster’s RDS Arena. Hull FC may also move a home game to the venue.

Super League’s Rhodri Jones expressed hope for ‘significant progress’ within a week, stating the NRL has made their investment a top priority post-TV deal finalisation. Wigan CEO Kris Radlinski reaffirmed his club’s 100% support for the deal, citing the NRL’s achievements as ‘fantastic’ and anticipating a pivotal period for the sport with broadcasting futures to be decided amid NRL negotiations.
