Mexico 1- Germany 0
Half time!
The Mexicans are making the Germans look slow and old.

I am very happy with the Optus coverage, I have had a few very minor issues with the Optus coverage, nothing worth complaining about.

Re: 2018 World Cup
Have to agree.I am very happy with the Optus coverage, I have had a few very minor issues with the Optus coverage, nothing worth complaining about.
The russia saudi game i had to refresh the stream every 15 minutes but apart from that i cant complain.
The ability to have multiple devices connected and stream to apple tv and google / abdroid was a huge bonus and something fox does not allow.
If i was locked out of entire games as some have experienced i would be very angry though

Re: 2018 World Cup
Interesting that you two have no problems but it seems to be something affecting a lot of fans down there.
But I am still quite surprised it is not being shown on TV.

Re: 2018 World Cup
An article I read the other day stated that the majority of problems were iOS users and people not on the Optus network. So if you have 4G, an android and are with Optus you have won the Australian WC coverage bingo lol.

SBS had the rights and sold them to Optus.
I believe they had their budget slashed and were under pressure to change.(de-wogification, perhaps... )
SBS is undergoing a major shift, triggered by the federal government's decision to cut funding to the ABC and SBS.
SBS is under significant pressure from Canberra to boost ratings and lose its "niche" perception in order to maintain future funding.
Chief content officer Helen Kellie and TV and online content director Marshall Heald are believed to have identified football as an expendable part of the programming schedule.
"There is a very fundamental change occurring at SBS. Those in charge at the network have made it clear to everyone they intend on taking a new path," one insider said. "They want to increase ratings by any means and appear prepared to stray from the charter, if necessary.
"If it wasn't for SBS, football would never have found a home on Australian television all those years ago. But those in charge of content have come in from outside and have dismissed its importance."

Expendable?
Sounds like a stitch up job from the inside.
That article is from 2015 but maybe things have changed.

Poland fluffed their lines last night. A real defensive howler.
In all it has been a World Cup that has not been kind to the bookies.
