It's 9.45am on Sunday, and to my eyes there are no round 2 highlights (or even replays or ANY content) available on Sky Go - it's only showing matches from last week. I've tried refreshing, logging out etc to no avail.

I can't even see any highlights available of the All Blacks match.

This just isn't acceptable. Instead I've watched all the extended highlights packages on a freely available website that does a great job of presenting spoiler-free extended highlights packages.

I watched a couple of matches live on my Sky TV box last night and that was A-O-K, but they've got to do a much better job with availability of on demand replays and highlights otherwise why would I bother subscribing?

Well, it sounds like it's not worth me paying more for sky go.

It's not much better on sky sports now. They have the 2am matches up, but don't have the replay for the Brentford vs Man United match up.

Mind you, if they did have the full match up it would be a poor quality stream.

Almost 11am and still no coverage on Sky Go of this mornings games. I had set my expectations very low and Sky still hasn't managed to met them. I don't even know why I'm surprised.

So SSN may have had a bitrate/fps improvement. Watched the Brentford vs Man U game this morning. No reply up but the 24 hour rewing function in the guide allows you to watch the game. It was a smooth experience for me and no artifacting. Paid for the month but even with my love of footy (my national sport being English) I'm not up with the price of the sub amongst all the other subs we have... They need to improve the app UI to make it easier to find content but it may have been fixed now.

Thanks, I didn't realise we could rewind 24 hours to watch the stream from last night. And yes, I can watch the Brentford v United game that way and it's better quality.

They do have the full reply up now, but it's very poor quality.

They won the rights to the top sports league in the world and don’t understand what modern NZ consumers need. Replays should be up minutes after the game finishes so we can watch when we want. 12 hours late is ridiculous as you inadvertently heard the result. In our timezone we need replays available quickly. Please Sky sort it out for next week. Maybe ask Spark how to do handle these rights competently.

Looks like the full games and highlights are now up. Nearly 16 hours after the games were completed

FWIW and I'm not defending sky BUT SkyGO and SSN are obviously separate platforms. Sky Go was never meant to be a streaming option its for Satellite subscribers to watch live whilst away from their sky box. Its never had a 24 hour rewind/rewatch feature (like SSN) and I don't believe its supposed to be treated as a streaming platform. If you have skyGo (unless your borrowing a login) then you should just record it on the sky box and watch it whenever you want. If your away from home (like I was on the weekend) then yourt only option with SkyGo is to watch live.

SSN obviously has more streaming platform features and ability to watch games on demand or from within a 24 hour period.

Sky posted this on Twitter...

"Hi there, we did have a technical issue yesterday with replay content on Sky Go, but the issue has now been resolved. Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist with."

I've cancelled my subscription to Sky Sports Now. I'm not paying that amount of money for poor quality streams of EPL replays. I've tried contacting Sky, but it has just resulted in ongoing emails about my internet connection even though I've made it clear that's not the problem.

Good luck to everyone who will continue to suffer with Sky's average products and services. Hopefully they sort out their problems soon and start valuing their customers.

Does anyone know how to watch the weekly review shows on Sky Go? I can’t find it anywhere

Search "Matchday Extra" and it will let you watch the show that aired at 6.30pm as Skygo can go 2 hours in the past.

I can't see it as its own "on demand" option though

Edit: nope, I could only watch the show that was airing at 6.30pm as the show was still going.
