    I'm really enjoying the 'behind the scenes' compilations they do for each match.
    One thing that comes across repeatedly is how good Troy is with people and especially with kids.

    I love Jon Marks commentaries and usually turn the video stream sound off and listen to him, even when the two are not in sync. As GG says it is worth it alone for the additional stuff, and you can catch up if you miss a game. Worth every penny in my opinion.

    Doesn't really matter how many free streams you can get elsewhere. £43 is less than a pint of beer a month and being able to watch highlights or interviews whilst on the throne or in the bath relaxing whenever I like with the best commentators in the land is priceless.

    I came across this free phone app recently - "live sports tv" - and it will play live broadcasts from sky, BT, Sentanta, Bein, Eurosport and others for free. It's pretty good, although not tried it much though, it's good if you out.

    It's not a streaming service tho.

    It would be great if I could find a way to plug my phone into the tv and watch it on the big screen.

    Have you tried a mini USB to HDMI cable? I use that for Showbox to watch phone app movies on the big screen.
