    I'd like something like 1064 rugby, they was great.

    Yeah I found it boring and didn't buy into a lot of what they were spouting.

    But at least it was different, that's the point we need a variety for different audiences. Not old abs talking bollocks cos they are so out of touch

    `spot on.

    One of the things I love about NFL is the commentators are competing for insightful analysis. They call bad play, they call good play. Rugby ... doesn't have that.

    Ironically Tom Brady has sucked as a commentator.

    I've just received this alert. The All Blacks app served a purpose for me for score updates etc. I'm not confident the NZR+ app will do the same.

    @Bovidae The All Blacks app looked like it hadn't had a code revision since 2014

    I'm hoping the NZR+ one is better!

    Makes sense to only have the one app. However it's a strange choice to use the NZR+ branding over the much stronger 'All Blacks' name recognition

    Have you seen the new AB stats site? Sometimes old code is better. 🙂

    as we've just talked about on the Fantasy thread you can do your fantasy team on the NZR+ app...works well...NZR doing NZR things though in that i can see almost no mention of that ability....i also opened up my All Blacks app only a couple of hours a go...and no mention of it shutting down, or the NZR+ app etc

    That's what concerns me. Can't wait for the expertise of Silverlake to start kicking in.

    If NZR put all games they can on this, I'd drop sky in a second. I only watch rugby (and could live without catching any non NZ/AB rugby), F1 if the times good, and one off big events (which again i could miss). Anything big and not on NZR+, I could go to the pub. My Sky Sport Now renewal is 550, a lot for shit I never watch.

    Or sky do a slightly cheaper rugby only version

    100% same here.
    We would drop Sky and pay (let's say) 50-60% of the cost of the full Sky for just rugby.
    In truth, we are paying all of Sky for only rugby.

    If I were them, i would also run it through Amazon prime etc as a pick up channel. They might lose % of revenue that way but it would make it so easy to add .

    It's better than the old satellite days when you had to have Sky Basic as well, but still.
