I had an optus account maybe 6-7 years ago. Since then they've kept my login and I can still watch all optus sports stuff.

I have two logins for optus sport. They kept my optus email which is invalid yet I can watch the games .

Does anyone else have an issue with the optus sport app on their tv's??

When watching all the goals or replays mine is so jitery its unwatchable but if i watch a match live its fine.

Its fine when watching on my phone

I don't think I've had that problem with Optus but the NPL replays, it works better if you start the video and pause it and let it download for a while.Worth a try.

Yeah I get it for free also. My brother got some high speed NBN plan a couple of years ago and part of the promo was two logins to Optus sport. Was meant to expire in 2018 but still works fine, even when I downloaded the smart tv app and stopped Chromecasting, More than happy to pay $15 a month but also happy to have it for free.

It's free when you are a Telstra mobile customer. You can live stream all A-league, W-league, Y-League, AFL, AFLW, NRL and Netball games. It is also data-free so it doesn't count towards your mobile data limit. At the moment you can get their 180GB sim only plan for $65 per month, which is pretty damn good, especially if you have 5G coverage in your area. 

yer thats the my football app is free as mentioned.

I wish the championship was on optus bein sports only showing one match isn’t great 

pretty hard re scheduling I guess due to having to show other sports as well.
Alot of EFL games have the same koff times so I suppose they pick the highest profile game.
Great comp, brutal infact 46 games + play offs etc......

At the very very bottom of the panels there is a channel option. If you want to watch the triple header, just choose Foxsports 505 and you'll get the Foxsports 505 stream

Still no TV guide though

I had to contact their support to find this out. I suggested that "channels" should be an option on the top menu, but got no reply.

Yeh they do need to make the interface more useable for casual watching. Even when watching A-League when there's double/triple headers. Having to switch to the next game rather than it just flowing on is a little annoying.

Kayo has dozens of sports and is $25 per month
Optus only has international football and is $15 per month


Kayo has a deal where Telstra customers can get 2 months for $5 so I'm trialing it. The only disappointment so far is lack of a TV guide. I know they want to change the way we watch TV and go with the Panel approach seen in Netflix, but it doesnt work. Sometimes I like to see whats on each channel and choose whats on (casual watching). The panel approach doesnt accommodate that practice
