grolschie: Ummm... With a paid service (for some) why are we watching advertisements?!

they are rebroadcasting TVNZ 1

Actually, it's the other way around - TVNZ are taking the Sparksport stream...

Talk about double-dipping. Ads on pay TV.

The same reason Sky shows ads too?
It could just be the opening ceremony they do it. Not sure what else they’d be showing anyway.

Yep as do most paid services
Spark/TVNZ have said no ads during game time, same as Sky with any All Black game
