Ironically though, using streaming services on Apple TV is a pain in the arse due to the lack of feedback and specificity allowed by the remote. I'm constantly selecting the wrong option and scrubbing is nigh-on-impossible. It's the closest I've come to understanding boomer rage.
The Stan Sport interface on live sport has always been surprisingly good, easy to move around, and with the "skip intro/half time" options on replay. And a quick way to toggle between simultaneous live games. It's miles ahead of some others.
The "Ball in play" replays last spring tour was fantastic as well.
Can’t for the life of me understand why they don’t be still so this. The mini match just doesn’t satisfy the cravings.
You have to assume it's a decision relating the resources required - one game per week vs five.
Problem with this model, for me at least, is that it ends up costing a lot if you do enjoy a lot of different sports. I don't love other sports the way I do rugby but I still enjoy watching them.
Sounds like a perfect gig for a Uni student to watch a game, press a button when the ball isn't in play, then another when it is.
Much better AI than some other rugby competitions. Bizarre videos from the NH. Only showing conversions and no tries, ending the highlights before the game finishes etc.
Any indication of $$ on top of the overall broadcast deal?
The money goes to WR (World Rugby) not RA, so doesn't really make too much difference what they paid other than a sign of continued investment in rugby union
Might be the $100m handshake we heard about months back.
