Gee I hope we haven't thrown Vandenberg in the deep end too early again.

Remember last year he played against Collingwood and then was done for the year.

It’s very hard to shake these kind of concerns, isn’t it. We just have to put our faith in those deciding these sort of things. Which is a whole other concern ??

I hope he only plays a half at most.

There's a good thread on Kayo.

It works well if you have download speeds of 10-15 Mbs. Because it's live sport it needs a little more speed than Netflix that uses buffering.

It also works very well overseas if used with a VPN.

The difference between the standard and premium ($25 and $35) is simply 2 versus three devices at once.

The biggest drawback is that if Channel 7 is covering a game you will get their feed and commentary with ads during the match. I had hoped to say goodbye to Bruce and co.

Cricket coverage is topnotch as is tennis and F1 if you're into it.The replay system is great.

I use an nvidia stream as my box but there are multiple alternatives.

Finally it has no fixed contract so if you only want it for the football season remembering that all finals are FTA and therefore coverage is identical you can cancel at your convenience. Overall a very good product.

 

 

To add to this, if you watch Kayo via an Apple TV or even through a web browser is the ability to multiple games playing at same time, something that you can't achieve with Foxtel. I'll regularly have an AFL game with a NRL game at the same time being played with my TV split.

A mate told me a fella he works with has a work around to address that issue, possibly some plug in or the like so you got the foxtel stream not the 7 one.

He was gonna to get more info and let me know.

Really? I just have the AFL app free with my Telstra account, but are you saying if I paid extra they’d lift the restriction on screen-mirroring? 

Missed this sorry.. No, Telstra only has the AFL contract for mobile phone size, can't remember the specs, but is why you won't see it big enough to fill an iPad, etc... they can not allow their feed to resize to anything larger.
