What platform are you watching on?

What kind of internet do you have?

I can’t answer either of these questions. I’m a dinosaur when it comes to this sort of thing. I just turn things on and they work. Except for Kayo

    Platform is Chromecast, you mentioned. Shouldn’t be an issue. Likely you have slow or congested net pushing your feed back and back.

    Change the quality to SD only and click jump to live (little square live button at the bottom). If that doesn’t work, it could be a very specific bug with the setup you have - try opening up Kayo website on laptop/phone/pc, and test if it’s delayed there also.

    You may potentially need another way to watch it, there are many ways/apps to get it on TV without spending money that you might already have (kids Xbox/PS, hdmi from laptop etc.)

    Sounds like you attend every game so it’s probably not a massive issue for you unless you watch other games too.

    Very strange problem GW. As others have said the delay should be around 30 seconds

    I can for example listen to the cricket on the radio and if there's a good shot or a wicket have time to look up and see the bowler starting his run up.

    Years ago when kayo used to buffer due to my old internet one might be 5 minutes behind by the end of a game but 15 mins is weird.

    i think you have probably blundered into a time warp and are now a time traveller

    I do watch other games but the delay is okay because I’m not so invested in them. I just turn off notifications on my phone so there’s no spoilers. But this is different… this is our game and the only way to avoid spoilers is to tum my phone off completely.

    Thank you for the suggestions. I will try each one.

    I’ve got three friends who have the same length delay. One of them is Mrs Fritta. She contacted Kayo and all they did was to tell her how to go about unsubscribing. How’s that for customer service, huh 🙄

    Thanks so much all. I never knew there was the jump to live option. And now it’s working perfectly.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
