GAA+ must be the only streaming service that hits you with a fee to watch and then forces you to watch advertisements as well.
Even if you watch it back after - it still gets you. Really annoying.

It's grand. Extra revenue for them and opprtunity to get those sponsors on board for other GAA activities.

Yes that bugs the life out of me too.
The problem with the alternatives is you can't watch back, which in Melbourne means you have to watch every match live which is a 1am start for a 4pm game.

I watched a munster hurling final in Sydney 19 years ago downstairs in a nightclub on a giant screen for all the Paddy's, best craic ever.

Replying To Kew:  "Do you not have GAA+??? They use the one camera in most games. It's not the super bowl it's a live stream. How you think it's some massive effort to stream a game in this day and ages is hard to believe"
Don't agree. Gaa+ always use at least 2 cameras for all of the games. Well any of the games I've watched. Clubber on the other hand always use just one camera and terrible comentators. They also charge more and of course loads of ads.

Replying To systematic:  "The camera quality in most cases is far worse than RTE/TG4. Not much better than camcorder"
I thought the picture quality was quite good to be honest.
It's streamed in HD.

GAA plus do not always use 2 cameras. It's mainly one not sure where you are getting the 2 cameras from ?

Replying To Kew:  "Rte has zero GAA on Saturdays anymore it really is disappointing when you have big games like mayo v Tyrone and cork v Kerry along with multiple others on today. Only one game on Sunday ? Is that the future of GAA on rte? One game each weekend?"
Another big Saturday and no GAA on TV. What is going on ? It's doesn't make any sense to have none of the high profile games on. Loitv have kerryfc games streamed every week but Kerry GAA v Meath can't be streamed anywhere? Does anyone know the game Maurice brosnan was talking about where someone streaming a game was told to shut down at half time? Why are the GAA trying to limit coverage of games?

6 games on GAA+ this weekend ... mid season pass is €49. Even the Cavan man couldn't give out about the price of that with all profits going back to the GAA and the money supporting the local economy. Shur I guess you wouldn't be happy with that either.

Spillane on podcast is not impressed.

All Ireland football finalists of last year not on and in meantime some O'Byrne Cup rugby competition on in Croke Park. Spillane reckons it be half empty. No idea but they seem to be able to sell all sorts of junk on basis that the eventers who follow Lunster get to use our facilities for the day.

Not worth a bob to local businesses by the way as very few of them like the sort of Dublin their old folks have created through turning northside into Rotheram.

I googled Gaa+ just to clarify and see if I was mistaken. Gaa + state they use MULTI camera production.
I don't know if they have multi cameras for all games but they most certainly do for many if not all.

You know you're not obligated to believe everything you read online? Especially the stuff that's fed to us from the Tommy Robinson/Nigel Farage set in Britain

Yeah it's where I live as it happens. It's certainly less dangerous than it was 20 odd years ago when I moved but maybe Tommy Robinson and his Irish flunkys are right and it's a no-go area that is also.... checks notes.... the major problem with GAA+.....?
