Fox Sports to screen every 2024 English Super League game to Australian viewers
Fox Sports is breaking new ground in 2024 by broadcasting every game of the English Super League season in Australia.
While Australian fans have been treated to select matches from the competition over the past decade, Fox Sports has upped the ante by announcing coverage of the entire 2024 season, available on both Fox Sports and Kayo Sports, their popular live streaming platform.
The season kicks off with a derby as Hull FC takes on Hull KR this Friday morning at 7am (AEDT). With 27 rounds in total, each featuring six matches, rugby league diehards will have access to 162 regular-season fixtures, plus finals.
JUST IN: Fox Sports and Kayo will take all six games of #SuperLeague starting this weekend in Australia.

Typically, the Super League schedule includes a Thursday night match (Friday morning in Australia), a Friday night fixture (Saturday morning in Australia), and additional matches spread across the weekend.
Wigan Warriors won a gripping 2023 Super League grand final over Catalans Dragons. London Broncos make a return to the top league in 2024 after securing victory in the Championship grand final last year, while Wakefield Trinity drops down to the second tier after finishing at the bottom of the Super League standings in 2023.
Along with the two Hull-based clubs, Catalans and the Broncos, Leeds Rhinos, Salford Red Devils, St Helens, Leigh Leopards, Huddersfield Giants, Castleford Tigers and Warrington Wolves will be striving to stop the Warriors’ quest for back-to-back titles this year.
Every club has a healthy contingent of ex-NRL Australian, Kiwi and Pasifika expats.
The broadcast landscape in the UK has undergone significant changes as well. The RFL has introduced Super League+, a new streaming service ensuring that every single game is brought to fans’ screens for the first time – including four exclusive games per week, along with two fixtures televised by Sky Sports.
