      @canefan Thanks, I'll try to find out how to do that sometime in the next couple of days.

      @canefan Where I am parked up at the moment we only have free to air television and being in a rural area, only modest ADSL internet, so I'll take any free live sport in real time I can get!

        Spark is an internet platform, so you need reasonable bandwidth and speed

            Aren't Spark transferring some of their sports to free to air TVNZ?

                @canefan Hope so, but they may not be live and uninterrupted and there is nothing as frustrating than having to put up with incessant adds breaks during play.

                    @canefan I think you are right, and they are likely to use their 'Duke' channel for more popular events like cricket, FA cup etc.

                        Info on TVNZ+ takeover of Spark Sport content -
                        TVNZ+ is set to be the new home of sport in Aotearoa from 1 July. The close calls, the big hits and the even bigger stars. And because we've got it, you get it LIVE and FREE!

                        From Saturday, a new sports hub will be available on TVNZ+, bringing to you your favourite sports, with live events, replays and highlights. The line-up will be filled to the brim with these sports and more;

                        🏏 NZ-based cricket: home internationals, all Dream11 Super Smash matches and domestic one-day matches

                        🏈 NFL

                        🏍 MotoGP™

                        🏎 FIA World Rally Championship

                        🎾 US Open Tennis

                        🏀 FIBA (Federation International Basketball Association)

                        🏃 Wanda Diamond League

                        🇼🇸 Lakapi Samoa (Manu Samoa Rugby)

                        ⭐️ and so much more!

                        But in the meantime, don't miss The Ashes second test starting tomorrow (Wednesday) from 9pm on TVNZ DUKE and TVNZ+. Brendon McCullum's English side will be chasing revenge after a nail biting loss to the Aussies in the first test.
