    @adriansal80 @SC___Scout You got a foxtel box or the streaming version of foxtel? Cause I can’t handle Kayo. The streams are awful. It’s delayed and the app is beyond pathetic.

    @Timrides1966 @LaurenHeraldSun Research DAZN some more. They have a DAZN bet app OS incorporating I believe their streaming service & gambling in the same place. I expect to see a future where Foxtel only does sports. You may (depending on the Govt at the time) be able to bet on sports via the Kayo Fox app.

    Why the bloody hell has foxtel still got the stupid seinfeld channel ? Why not a friends channel ? Or a married with children channel ? A frasier/cheers channel ? So many better options than that absolutely stupid show having its own channel

    @thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.

    one of the main reasons i persist with foxtel is to watch #redv games. saints are really tempting me in to giving it up. if it wasnt for cricket and a few shows i really like it would be gone cmon, @NRL_Dragons , get your **** together

    jaimee ⁸ ¹ ⭑ (@E8M1AJ) reported

    i did a mock order on the foxtel website to see how much it would be to potentially get one. ever since i’ve had them calling me 5-7 times a day 😭 one way to lose a potential customer!

    @Sharkydave44 Nine has the money from the Domain sale. Yes, Dazn would be incredibly stupid to lose the rights after forking out for Foxtel. Dazn has shown some form in trying to lowball sport bodies I don’t believe the numbers have been agreed on, I do think the NRL would prefer not to move

    @RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.

    @LeagueFreak If they lose the rights they're finished . the 4 billion they paid for foxtel sports next to worthless when more then half their subscribers move to the streaming service that has the NRL But... Stan & Paramount are serious in taking DAZN out of the Australian market

    @matt__nicholls Pretty sure @Foxtel rely on many subscribers just being to lazy or not being bothered to go through process and of cancelling What other reason wouod there be for a Foxtel customer not being able to simply cancel on line ?

    @taximalsVT Foxtel was ****, and when Telstra first Introduced the High speed net, It really was Super fast high speed net for the first few months.. We got heaps. But they realised this, and all ISP's have been throttling the **** out of it every since.

    @simonhill1894 @AnthonyPHoran @Gatty54 Paramount Plus have been pretty good for the A-League... with the exception of not being in pubs (which continues to be a massive problem). I did some analysis the other day and P+ have more subscribers now than Foxtel had when the A-League had its TV audience peak in 2012-13

    @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help And if you ring up you get someone from overseas who has no idea, offers you nothing and you get nowhere. If only there was another pay service to give them competition.

    Why the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.
