    Yeah bud. So far so good and that’s just with the Beta version. Apparently the app comes out in the next week or so. Early days but I’m a fan. The split screen option and the (similar to Optus) mini match thing also good. I’d probs wait for the app though. Casting and all that works no dramas

    So basically its the foxtel sports package for $25 a month?
    And you can chromecast it?
    If so, I'm in and can forget about the myfootball app.

    I read on the Kayo website it needed Chromecast ultra and I'm a tightass and don't have that (just got the standard chromecast)

    Yeah I’ve got both and it was only working on ultra. I don’t know enough about this stuff to know why that’s the case. App got released today and is nice

    The email says:


    And for your big screen TV, Kayo is available on Apple TV or you can stream it via Chromecast Ultra or Chromecast 3 rd Generation devices.

    Recently bought an Nvidea Shield. Only set top box that Stan, Netflix, Amazon Prime and it's Android, so Kayo should be fine.

    Foxtel just about to go from my monthly bill

    Hopefully some dumb **** in Oz will alllow clubs to set their fixtures and not the dimwits at Foxtel

    If the Jets want to play on Friday or Saturday nights every week

    Then we should be able to

    We got rid of the monday night tv game in switzerland in the second division. Moved to friday night which is ok.

    Clubs in 2nd division can then say apart from friday night game what time kickoff on saturday and sunday...

    1st division has only 2 playing slots... Saturday night and Sunday afternoon. fix.

    yet they show all of the 1st division games on paytv. (channel conference and a channel per game) sunday 1 game is ¨free to air¨

    Anybody else just witness the most bizarre match edit in history?

    Waiting for Matchday Saturday and a little surprise - Jets v City final highlights - nice I thought.

    Showed highlights of the first half, mainly all the City bits. Then went straight to the 84th minute - no Jets goals, not even McGree's.

    The City miss right at the death, fulltime, end.

    What was the point?

    Currently just doing a test on watching HAL via other means

    YouTube has coverage of HAL games live for people in countries around the world with no coverage on normal or satellite tv

    So just signed in with a VPN via Taiwan and I am watching the coverage via YouTube with shitty Kiwi commentators and all

    VPN is much cheaper than both

    a Foxtel
    b MyFootball App

    Thanks for supporting Australian football. The $1.70 a week you saved from MyFootball app make it worthwhile, I guess

    a somewhat interesting article on tv ratings/crowd figures across a number of sports.

    So much of that is right and it is the governance of each sport that is at fault.

    Constant rule changes, inconsistent scheduling, television coverage across several mediums, over zealous security, decline of organic support, priority of "family friendly entertainment", franchises and nicknames reducing identity.

    When they find a good thing it gets flogged to death. Long time fans are getting sick of being treated like mugs to cater for the plastic fans who change support like the weather.

    I think it will be hard to turn around.
