Working on this for 3 years and yet it’s only available on the iPad for game 1 (no iphone?!), and only available on iOS? Seriously, 3 years and no Android? Totally, make the people happy and give a HD feed instead of this garbage.
Considering this app is created by ninemsn its disappointing that there is no version available for a windows phone. (There is availability on other windows devices according to their website.)
Oh again no Android app……. starting to piss me off !!
Well said guys but if you wait for the replay on Foxtel it will be in glorious HD
Still in SD? Pathetic. Go NSW anyway, i guess.
But still no HD telecast. Smh.
All in glorious standard definition.
How about providing a high definition feed instead of this gimmick.
