    @mariner4life mate, it ain't too bad.
    Now, obviously I'm a lonely old curmudgeon wallowing in solitude 24/7 ( what's that? you haven't noticed? Nice of you to say) and the trick I've found with stan is to ignore any live games that you want, use their full replay and become expert at the 10 second forward button.

    If proficient you can take in all the action in less than half the time, focus on the actual rugby, skull beers and totally eliminate the commentary because their sentences don't finish.

    Here's the formula:

    Every scrum whistle is at least 3 pushes of the "button". Reset, 3 more.
    Lineouts 2 Max- you can get caught out from quick lineout assemblies, but not boks and lions!
    Conversions about 4-5 pushes
    Penalty kicks for touch, 2
    Restarts only 1 - about the only thing they do efficiently is jog 50 metres in 10 seconds
    Injury breaks, as many as needed - don't be shy, they fuck around something awful
    Obviously no half time.

    It's amazing and also satisfying on your time budget how much non rugby is played over 2 hours

    Yes, I know that's all sad but at least I'm using my miserable life to try and help others🙂

    You're welcome pal😉

      When I use the 10 seconds forward button it seems like the fucking thing buffers for at least 10 seconds.

        very similar to @Siam above: 3 for a scrum, 2 for lineout, but I go about 10 any time a try is scored as that skips the slowmos etc and gets me to restart.

        Injuries at least 6 presses until I figure out if they need the ambo or not.

        Halftime I just hold that FF down until 15 minutes have passed, then adjust.

          Love it!

          By God you speed through a game and it's riveting throughout.

                  Does when casting. Pretty instantaneous if just on device.

                        Really, really fucking annoying, bloody Stan doesn't have the Maori All Blacks v Samoa now.

                        It has been showing all week and now it's been taken off the schedule. According to what I've read on Readdit, it is definitely not being shown.

                        So fkn pissed off right now, was thinking to start the Sydney 2 week lockdown in style, just got back from BWS with 2 weeks of alcohol that will last this weekend and watch the 7's from Townsville into the Maori AB's game.

                        Stan Fuckers!!!

                            That’s BS just got home to watch the Maoris game.
                            They better be streaming the NPC when it starts.

                                        Really, really fucking annoying, bloody Stan doesn't have the Maori All Blacks v Samoa now.

                                        It has been showing all week and now it's been taken off the schedule. According to what I've read on Readdit, it is definitely not being shown.

                                        So fkn pissed off right now, was thinking to start the Sydney 2 week lockdown in style, just got back from BWS with 2 weeks of alcohol that will last this weekend and watch the 7's from Townsville into the Maori AB's game.

                                        Stan Fuckers!!!

                                        That’s bullshit. The show a heap of obscure crap. They would have at least had something of an audience for that one.

                                        But generally I’m pretty happy with rugby on Stan. It’s better and much cheaper than Foxtel.
