    If you cancel at the end of the six months they will beg you to come back pretty frequently and if you don't get an offer of a massive discount when you go to cancel you should get one not long after. They have so many promo offers to get you back I don't know how anyone could be paying full price lol.

    As for the service itself it is pretty good. I have had it off and on since they started mainly for NHL but their coverage is pretty good for everything else as well.

    I have a subscription for Baseball mostly. I can't see it ever taking off here until they start covering Australian sport.

  • Is it sports news only or streaming of games too?

    • +5

      Sports journalism, heaps of analytical pieces, no streams of games.

      • Sports journalism

        It was a game of two halves, at the end of the day the best team won, we'll go back and watch the video and work on the little things we got wrong etc.

        All 'sports journalism' could be written by a bot lol…

  • And your thoughts on Sports Journalism beyond this planet?

      Well I may of copied that from the last time it was posted…But someone thinks it's the best on the planet!

      Also after hearing "The Athletic" at the start of every Tifo video on YouTube, I feel like is now subconsciously in my brain too!

    Thanks OP. Got for European football

  • Got it for NHL (Let's go Canes), definitely worth it. Great content. Every now and again I also dip into a bit of NBA and again, great content. Would definitely recommend.

    • 'Canes…hahahahah

      Go Leafs Go…

    The Athletic might truly be the best sports journalism. Love it to death

  • Athletic is definitely worth it. Goodbye sensationalist click bait nonsense. Hello analytical, fact based journalism.

    Peanuts like Paul Kent would be exposed if they started covering Aus sports.
