It doesnt say why he couldnt watch it? Was it a production issue or a streaming issue?Yeah so this is why Paramount Plus aren't viable to broadcast major sports
A-League clubs, players and, most importantly, fans, deserve so much better than what Paramount Plus is serving up.
We are almost two years into the deal the Australian Professional Leagues signed with Network 10 and its subscription service Paramount Plus to broadcast the A-League, but there are still problems with the broadcast.
The latest came on Friday night when many supporters could not watch the game between Adelaide United and Macarthur FC that was being shown on Paramount Plus.
I experienced it first hand from the Gold Coast, where I am for my son’s futsal tournament. My mate and I were trying to watch the game via his Paramount Plus subscription, but like so many others around the nation, we couldn’t. So what did my mate do? He watched the Australian Open tennis instead.
More and more fans are switching off the A-League and watching other sports because of how difficult it has suddenly become to watch a game of Australian club football on a TV or computer screen.
That’s not a position football can afford to be in. We have already lost enough fans. so we can’t risk losing more because of a broadcast service that’s not good enough. Paramount Plus needs to be made accountable for what they are doing to our game.
The APL is trying hard, and has some great ideas in the pipeline, including building a studio at Allianz Stadium. But they are being let down by their broadcast partners, who have failed to secure the rights for other sports despite making offers above what the rights have been sold for.
Paramount Plus needs to reinvent itself, maybe with the help of some fresh eyes, because what has been delivered so far hasn’t met the necessary standard.
Why is it that now a lot of the time match commentators aren’t even at the ground, but instead calling matches from a studio above Randwick racecourse?
And then, to make it worse, one of the commentators is also part of the half-time studio panel.
They don’t even try to create the illusion that the commentators are at the ground.
It’s just laughable, How did we get to this point?
He’s the same guy that attends wnba games
Are they using the US system though or a new platform based here? Your right though it shouldn't be hard to move what they've got over there to here you'd think?

Was just going to post thisChannel 9 diversifying and consolidating to capture key markets in a declining FTA market. Clever.CHANNEL 9 awarded exclusive broadcasting rights to the Summer and Winter OLYMPIC GAMES from 2024 - 2032
Commencing in July 2024 with the Olympic Games Paris 2024, Nine will provide Australia with a front row seat to the next five Olympic Games, including Milan (2026), Los Angeles (2028) and the yet to be announced 2030 Winter Games, all leading up to Australia’s return to hosting an Olympic Games...
Great minds bro!
it will if it manages to snag all nrl games in 2028! If it doesn’t then it’s questionable.
I think if we could get rid of the ref`s obsessions with calling every f**king dropped ball a knock-on (whether forward, sideways or a f**king mile backwards) and likewise forward passes (admittedly nowhere near as big a problem but still irksome) and the game was more frenetic or at least continuous, then having breaks after 20 minutes might work.
