youtube-dl support for this site is unlikely because of the widevine drm.

[thesteveway]

@stinkteeth I honestly just heard of widevine. can you point me in the right direction to get that working?

[rpvcg]

If you just heard of widevine drm, then you likely have a very very long learning curve ahead of you.
