    I can understand some young shit may find that viral or whatever.

    However, if NZR+ just had really good stats, and a good weekly show to watch (ala Aotearoa rugby pod), alongside a fantasy league, it would be getting plenty more traffic from actual fans.

    I’ll suggest the first presenter: Beaver.

    Agree on the Aotearoa Rugby Pod, best show in NZ by far. They need to get rid of the Breakdown, I'm sick of hearing Jeff Wilson's opinion on almost every rugby broadcast in New Zealand.

    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.
