    I paid €42.49 for the season, which they said was discounted. I was happy to pay: Q was excellent for SRA and I like being able to watch delayed, as I often can't watch live.

    its €42.49 for the Trans Tasman, which is on top of the €40 for SR Aotearoa

    i dont mind paying as it works out at €1.63 per game, but it appears to be the same price whether your a new subscriber or existing. i though there may have been some pricing structure between new and existing, but alas no.

    That's odd, you were definitely able to have 5 devices registered during SRA. I know people who shared accounts

    you are able to use on multiple devices, but you cant be logged in on all of the at the same time
    (according to them anyway, ive never tried)

    You’re right there. They should have had an actual discount. Imho this is the future of rugby broadcasting. I hardly watch other sports, so I will never take out a sky sport or similar subscription.

    Just like to announce my retirement, it's been a good few years at the top of rugby prediction competitions, but not getting any younger and the writing is on the wall. Looking forward to spending more time with kids and family. Very grateful to the opportunities that were afforded me, it's every kids dream to be a rugby predictor, not everyone gets the chance.

    That’s assuming you have the time to watch 5 Super Rugby games each weekend, on top of whatever Heineken Cup/Pro14/PRL/other northern hemisphere rugby that you are watching. It’s a fantastic standard of rugby and exciting to watch, but realistically I can only watch one or two games of it each week and I’m not really calculating a per game price - more looking at it as 1-2 games per week over six weeks which makes the economics a bit different, particularly when I’m already paying for Sky Sports and BT/Premier Sports (although another way to look at is that it’s just half the cost of one months Sky Sports + BT sub).

    There’s bugger all rugby on in the NH at the moment though. We have the Heineken Cup final and that’s about it for my interest. Lions tour I suppose. I have zero interest in the rainbow cup and dint really follow English or French club rugby.

    Ill watch the Friday and Saturday early morning games live... and most probably the later saturday game

    Of the 5 weekend games, ill usually watch 3 live and decide to watch the others delayed depending on whos playing and the scores.... usually ill be working in the room so i can cast an occasional eye.

    i definitely won't be watching the highlanders v rebels live in round 3, as its the only 2:30am game,. but thats one ill definitely watch delayed

    Chastening result for the Reds. Vunivalu looked good though.

    tahs / canes just played out a 112 point try fest

    hurricanes win 64 to 48

    17 trys !!!!!

    Crusaders 19-7 up against the Brumbies at halftime...could be a very bad second half for the Brumbies I fear

    And the crusaders have been quite sloppy too.
    Mounga and havili have been different levels to everyone else

    Think it will be a clean sweep for the NZ teams this weekend. So many scrums in this game.

    Not sure now.. the Brumbies have upped their intensity and Crusaders are getting sloppy.

    Down to 2 points.

    Mon brumbies

    What a finish! Crusaders lucky.

    Ollie Jager has completely morphed into a kiwi

    So close. That kick was always going be tough, I hate when games go down to a final kick.

    Crusaders almost deserved to lose, they were the ones keeping Brumbies in the game. But they did the job in the end. I was impressed by Enari when he came on, until he got the yellow :D
