World Cup 2018 Coverage

[CasualJan]

Hello all,

Checking if there's any more information around on how the World Cup 2018 in Russia will be shown on Optus - basically, I'm hoping that it'll be on the Optus Sport platform.

Also looking for any word on how long the World Cup games will remain available On Demand - I think it would be safe to assume all games for the duration of the tournament, but will that be it?  Or will the games be available for a period after the final is complete?

Cheers!

Don't know about the duration of games staying on demand but it'll be on the Optus Sport platform. Quite sure Optus have access to every game and free to air get access to any game that Aus play in (as well as Optus getting access to it).

Hi @CasualJan, just confirming that Optus Sport will have all 64 matches of the 2018 FIFA World Cup™ live and on-demand. Plus there'll be round-the-clock coverage from the tournament including highlights, analysis, exclusive interviews and more.

Hi @LucyS - thanks for coming back this one with a reply.  Much appreciated!

@CasualJan, no worries  FYI, we'll also have the home/away Australia v Honduras matches in November available to watch too. Got my fingers crossed for the Roos to qualify!!!

Hopefully we don't play like the USA. 😄
