    Finally woken up.

    I'll tell you one thing that would get me going to more live games Tex. Work with the officials and get rid of the overlong breaks between plays. The long scrum sets, the constant water boys. All encouraged so there is room for the TV 'experts' to 'add value' to the broadcast.
    All momentum for the crowd gets lost and worse still encourages some fucktard to play 'Hey Baby'.

    The breaks in play piss me off watching on TB .

    Only game I've been to in QLD in over 10 years was the test at Suncorp last year, and the constant music in the breaks just pissed me off.

    Sky Help Center

    What’s happening?
    The price of Sky Sport is increasing from 1 May 2022 by $3 per month.

    What will be the new price of Sky Sport?
    The new price of Sky sport from 1 May 2022 will be $34.99 per month, effective from your May bill.

    Why is the Sky Sport package price increasing?
    Our goal at Sky is to deliver to our customers the sport they love, right across the year.

    The rising cost of accessing key sporting events and competitions has meant that we’ve needed to invest more than ever to ensure we remain New Zealand’s home of sport.

    We continue to make substantial investments in local and global sport, through event rights fees, production of live games and highlights, team and event sponsorships and partnerships with sport associations.

    Six years with Spark, I believe starting 2020/21 season

    @nzzp I'm not sure Spark sport will exist in 5 years. The fact they have never released subscriber numbers tells you only one thing.

    Might get back to bite David White in the bum if Spark Sport folds before the contract period expires and the NZCC has to pay Sky to have their cricket televised.

    They are now $19.17 worse off from me.

    +$3 for sport and -$22.17 for entertainment that I would have otherwise kept if they hadn't increased sport

    Amazing things these telephones. Next we'll have computers where you can bypass waiting/talking and just click a box for what you want to do.

    clever. Save the $20 that you will have use to pay for more streaming services when Sky's revenue drops to the point they get outbid for stuff you want.
