    Yes. I can't get it to work. Been trying for 15 mins. Very frustrating (again).

    G'day all!
    Please can someone confirm I understand this right?
    If you don't watch the stream live, you have to wait until 12 midday UK time before you can watch it on demand.  
    I like to view it with the kids, but here in sunny Queensland we tend to be early to bed early to rise, and most live match are 0100-0300. However, if I have to wait until 12pm then this still means the match will be on 10pm to midnight (on Sunday), still too late for family viewing.
    I know it's my choice to live here, but it is advertised as "watch the full 90 minutes at a time to suit you".........
    There's no chance of keeping the score secret until after work and school on Monday.

    I'm pleased with the club's response about the technical issues. It was the first paid league game and if there are going to be issues they are most likely to happen on the first match. Teething problems. They sorted it out after 40 mind for me. Obviously I would have liked it not to happen. It was frustrating. 
    I believe the club is doing it's very best to give us what we want within the constraints. Very pleased with the quality and looking forward to watching around 40 matches this season! 
    Give them a chance to fix the teething issues and they will deliver, I am sure. 
    I won't be going to Drayton Manor though, no matter how many times I see the ad.

    Late? It started at 10pm in Perth!
    Seriously though, let's all  give it a few weeks to sort itself out....It's only  managers we start whining about - and calling for changes -in the first few weeks...

    I received this response directly from the EFL with regard to Sky games being broadcast in Australia:
    'In terms of EFL broadcast rights in Australia, at present we can only advise that discussions remain ongoing and, if and when, any rights package is agreed for this territory it will be announced in due course.'
    Not very helpful. But at least we know that somebody is talking to somebody....

    A degree of patience is needed here. If it was up to DCFC, every game would be streamed live. Their hands are tied by other forces as far as streaming rights goes.

    Your story seems similar to mine. I'm extremely surprised that the rights don't seem to have been awarded in Australia and NZ yet. It's money for old rope, given (as I assume) the large amount of EFL followers down under. I can only assume mass incompetence at some level behind the scenes. I've tried to get more info and have contacted both Beinsports and the EFL directly. But I've had no response from the latter and the former just gave vague answers about the rights not being announced. 
    I managed to watch the match the other day by signing up to Bet365 and depositing $10 into my bet account. I managed to get a pop-out screen large enough to fill most of my computer screen. Worked out ok, but I'd prefer not to have signed up for this. It made be very uncomfortable signing up to a betting site and there were several enticements to get me to put down a bet. I refuse to bet - it's dangerous, especially for somebody with an addictive personality. But needs must. I think I will be able to watch most Sky matches this way and I'd recommend giving it a go (with caution).

    I could have sworn I just said that Dave.
    Obviously the failure to award the broadcasting rights in Australia and NZ for the EFL is a league issue, not a Derby issue. It might not even be the league's "fault" as such.
    And congrats on being so aware of the situation. It might shock you but it takes a little more proactive effort in Australia to clarify the situation with the EFL rights in Australia than it does when you live in Derby.
    When I subscribed to Rams TV, the "headline" content said "all games". I didn't read the FAQs or the finer print; I didn't complain about that although I'd argue that an alternate form of wording would've alerted me to the situation.
    At the end of the day, I would still have purchased Rams TV; presumably I would have learned that I'd be listening to the RD service - as I have for years - for the first game. The only difference for me is that I now actively hope for Derby NOT to be on Sky instead of the other way around because I get to watch us live....hence the allusion (intended to be wry) to the Forest game. 
    If it's not dealt with before then, it could be the first time in quite a few years that I have not watched a Derby-Forest match live (although, if a few things fall into place in the next few weeks, I might even be in England and scrounging for tickets on October 12).
    I was only trying to inform others as I worked what was going on. No one accused the club of setting out to mislead so I'm sorry if you or anyone else felt that was the implication.
    Just so you understand, I was first alerted to the non-telecast of the match at about 4am by a fellow Derby fan (insomnia can be a good thing on occasion). Had I read his message properly, I would have realised the implications for Foxtel, our pay TV service that carries both Bein and ESPN...but I didn't. I was trying to find a stream for him thinking I had it on Foxtel anyway...only to sit down at 4.35am-ish to realise that ESPN1 and 2 are carried by Foxtel, not ESPN3, which google told me (and others) had the broadcast rights.
    Foxtel's site told me that I could access ESPN3 and the EFL matches online if I registered online (free because it's part of my existing subscription).
    My registration failed because I access Foxtel through my telco. My telco had to discuss with Foxtel how I could register; once resolved (Monday), purely because I learn eventually to double-check when I can't see the EFL on the ESPN3 menu, I re-googled the situation.
    The situation has been updated via an article halfway down the second page of a google search that ESPN3 has the rights for everywhere other than Australia and NZ. No decision has yet been made about Australia/NZ rights and no timeframe is available.
    Sorry about the level of detail.
    I'm not so deluded to think that anyone is especially interested in what I do at 4am but to illustrate that you might have known what was going on but an interested, reasonably intelligent Derby fan the world away didn't.
    Nor, I'll wager, did most like me. 
    Now...if anyone can let me know where I can get a voodoo doll for Sky Sports to use if they're considering telecasting Derby matches until this is resolved, I'd be appreciative.
     
    PS: All those who bag Craig Ramage on RD...tell me you don't want to ban him from taking holidays after his fill-in?

    Adelaide, South Australia, signed up as well. Will see how it all goes. 
    As it turns out Foxtel are blitheringly incompetent, and beIN sports doesn't, despite previous listing, have the EFL anymore. As such the Sunderland game and probably all broadcast games this season won't be viewable by legal means in Australia. Great stuff!
