The final Cumbrian derby of the season between Whitehaven and Barrow on August 21 is to be shown on TV.

Viaplay have announced the games which will be covered as part of their Monday night schedule for the rest of the 2023 campaign.

Barrow’s trip to Bradford on July 31 has also been selected as the televised game.

The Monday night coverage has been a welcome addition to the broadcast schedule over the past two seasons, providing access to the often-overlooked second tier.

Next on the agenda is Friday’s Championship clash Newcastle v Bradford which kicks-off Magic Weekend for the Super League sides in the north east.

Two live Challenge Cup games follow later in June, before the live Championship coverage returns with Widnes against Bradford on Monday July 10th.

The west Yorkshire clash between Halifax and Featherstone, plus York’s home game against Batley are also chosen for coverage.

There is still at least one unconfirmed Monday date, and Viaplay is also scheduled to show play-off matches and the Grand Final, which will earn automatic promotion to Super League for possibly the final time.

The new schedule means that Bradford have been the most popular televised team this season, having been selected six times.

Featherstone are the next most popular with four, with Batley, Barrow, Halifax, Widnes and York all appearing three times each.

  • Friday June 2 – Newcastle v Bradford (7.45pm)
  • Saturday June 17 – Challenge Cup – Hull KR v Salford (12pm)
  • Sunday June 18 – Challenge Cup – York v Leigh (5pm)
  • Monday July 10 – Widnes v Bradford (7.45pm)
  • Monday July 31 – Bradford v Barrow (7.45pm)
  • Monday August 7 – Halifax v Featherstone (7.45pm)
  • Monday August 21 – Whitehaven v Barrow (7.45pm)
  • Monday September 18 – York v Batley (7.45pm)
