This is the second of a very short two year deal for the EPCR competitions, and the third of a three year deal for PRL, so both those rights come up this season which should be interesting. It’s the third year of the URC’s current four year deals with broadcasters too. Speculation abound that these rights will all get combined into one package thanks to CVC’s influence, but not sure if that will actually happen and could pose particular difficulties for the URC.
