As far as I can see the Kerry/Galway and Cork/Kildare games are on Eir Sport, only, and to watch you must have an Eir internet subscription. Which means many people can't watch it, even if happy to pay. Not great. Aibrean (Kerry) - Posts: 263 - 14/05/2021 20:22:45 2341762 Link
Replying To carlovia: "Heres the link for the season pass All 65 non televised matches for 25 euro !! https://www.gaago.ie/packages" I signed up to it yesterday, bit of a no brainer for that price. What's the story though with not being able to watch the classic matches on it? Says not available in this region? So what region are they available in? That part doesn't really make much sense.

But, GAAGO can show them matches live outside of Ireland (other regions). Take Galway v Limerick today, it is being shown in Ireland on TG4. I will be watching it, here in England, on GAAGO.

I understand that matches aren't being shown on GaaGo due to TV and so forth. I just don't get that the classic matches are region restricted too. Its a pity.

Can't see why they can't show old games though, maybe those broadcasters prevent it for some reason. The GAAGO is a great job and can watch the games back too. There are a lot of old games on GAA Archive. A bit fiddly to find stuff usin the filter but some great games there including club games. link GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7345 - 16/05/2021 14:42:37 2342336 Link
Replying To Cockney_Cat: "What are "classic matches"?" In the GaaGo App, click on GaaGo Tv and there's a heading on it called Classic Matches, along with a Documentaries and Highlights respective headings. There's a load of old hurling and football games on it. Bon (Kildare) - Posts: 1909 - 16/05/2021 14:57:11 2342345 Link
How was the quality for anyone watching yesterday or today? Connection for the cavan game was as stop-start as our football! cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 16/05/2021 15:58:46 2342370 Link

Meath v Westmeath game appeared to cut off on me before final whistle with the game in the balance!! Service good and quality was decent on phone. There was a bit of lagging when casted onto TV but I would blame the broadband Royalio11 (Meath) - Posts: 757 - 16/05/2021 18:12:23 2342448 Link

Mad scramble to get phone to see end, didn't happen. Only got result. Thought it was my broadband. royaldunne (Meath) - Posts: 19449 - 16/05/2021 19:11:46 2342485 Link

The quality was decent all weekend I thought. Only thing was that the picture for today's games seemed a lot darker than yesterday's. I noticed it the same last year for the couple of games I paid for. Bon (Kildare) - Posts: 1909 - 16/05/2021 22:49:10 2342596 Link

I had the same problem and think it was the phone being inactive and going back to home page. I solved it by keeping my hand on the phone while it was streaming to the tv. I'm sure the younger posters have a better solution. carlovia (None) - Posts: 1517 - 17/05/2021 08:52:20 2342643 Link

Had no issues with it last year. Hopefully just an off day. .praying for improvements on and off the pitch next week so! ;) cavanman47 (Cavan) - Posts: 5012 - 17/05/2021 09:35:44 2342662 Link
Replying To brisbane: "Would be good if they had highlights of all the games covered" You can watch full games back on Catch Up but only the games not shown live on TV in Ireland. Just discovered there's an android app. Looks good and watching back games is good, haven't tried streaming a game on it yet. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7345 - 17/05/2021 13:35:02 2342776 Link
