Anyone else have a problem with the 'birds eye' viewing?
This is NOT how you see it... even being in stands at games. Ok for a Very short flash at times, but NOT as the main way of viewing the game. Made me feel unsteady (for want of description), annoyed and peed off altogether in the end. Stopped watching after 3rdQ (had missed 1st too).
Games were not presented to us like this in earlier times; is it only because New Drone tech now available?? Have posted on Netball NZ FB as well. Asked if this could PLease please be addressed!
