  @MrBlairHughes @LeagueUnlimited @kayosports That wasn't a Kayo issue that one, it happened on my Foxtel as well.

  @rohan_connolly @colonelhogans Don’t worry too much. Enduring the cats swans on Foxtel was painful. If it wasn’t Dwayne the pain talking ****, it was camera work which failed miserably. Absolute rubbish. Switch over to the pies game and you’ve gotta listen to back door Lyon and Howie. And the umpiring…pfft

  @codenrl **** I hope so . I hate channel 9 coverage. Foxtel is the greatest footy network. The people are decent down to earth and care about fans. Channel may have the greatest players ever but it’s a lame boring telecast.

  @Raiders_24Sep89 We need Foxtel not to own it kayo is garbage & will cost $500 a year soon for a tax payer subsidised sport. Channel 7 & 9 split coverage, ad free games on stan or similar

  Foxtel will keep increasing the price until they can force all their satellite subscribers over to Kayo so they can close down their superior but more cost expensive satellite services. They want to close all the none sport services & eventually Incorporate gambling options

  @GusLefty @AJG71 @karlstefanovic QED. This ALP fool doesn’t know Foxtel rolled out and paid for a cable network for far less $/ customer than the NBN. Foxtel: ~$800–$1,100 per premise. NBN: $2,000–$2,750+ per premise.

  @codenrl **** Phil gould he is a ****** . Cannot stand that we have too watch channel 9 coverage of the game , it’s so much better on Foxtel.

  @centralNRL He used to talk down the value of the nrl tv deal every time it was up for renewal when he had a job at Foxtel. Even they got sick of him

  @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

  @LeagueScenePod Paying fans that get kayo or Foxtel shouldn’t be forced to watch grand finals and origin games on a **** free to air with commercials.

  Yeezalicious (@Yeezalicious69) reported 37 minutes ago

  @PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy

  @MichaelPascoe01 NRL before the kids. It’s directly related to Foxtel and Nine's broadcast rights with the NRL. Non gambling Advertising revenue is down so the only income these mobs will get for the footy is from Gambling. If labor bans Gambling ads the NRL won’t get same the money for the deal

  @Jousting_Sticks This isn’t a kayo problem. This is a Foxtel problem. If you hate the Kayo app so much. It Foxtel instead.

  @theheraldsun Hang on They gave you a job after a long hiatus, when you lost your job at Foxtel and no one would touch you Entitled much Tom 🤦🤡

  Foxtel must be desperate to sell tickets for the Fredumb 250 UFC disgrace, poor old Gerard has to keep pushing the broadcast at every commercial break.

  @SteveMolk @WSWanderingEels Take the lot Stan/Ch9. Lifelong Foxtel subscriber, I’ll cancel subscription for Stan sports Rugby League & EPL

  I haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job. **** you #Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?

  @lui_zacher The foxtel clock froze. The actual time clock was still counting down. So in the end it was explained last night of the coverage & no time was lost.

  Span (@leespanos) reported 51 minutes ago

  @centralNRL Watching the games on the Ch9 1080i broadcast is horrible viewing vs Foxtel true HD and 4k. It just can’t be awarded back to @NRLonNine on this basis alone, with their complete disregard for the @NRL fans viewing experience. Commentary is fine, but low res is just rubbish

• 
  Mr_Ives (@Mr_Ives_) reported 52 minutes ago

  @BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.

  @hook_gc @FOXNRL It's Fox, try and cancel foxtel for an elderly relative. I wouldn't recommend them to my worst enemy.

  Warthog (@edwarner57) reported 54 minutes ago

  Just received a text from Telstra, I thought it was about today's outage but no it was a more important issue, they were having issues billing customers their Foxtel subscriptions. They will organise refunds for over charges. The important things. #telstraoutage

  Nat Geo (@___Geo__) reported 54 minutes ago

  @kayosports how do you expect people who live in remote Australia to be able to watch any live sports? These restrictions are absolutely ridiculous and anti consumer. The only way I can watch anything that Kayo has access to is by paying full price to a Foxtel service box?????

  @10SportAU @alexbozmorty Getting the A League back onto Foxtel or Stan Sports would help.

  Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported 56 minutes ago

  @Sarcastic_Cow @FOXTEL_Help Costs keep going up and standard going down. Few years ago there would be maybe 2 or 3 replays for every club.

  @sandylanceley @Channel9 @wwos I think with the new rights deal Foxtel will have the broadcast duties Maybe that may help with the coverage Stand corrected

  @JonesPam7777 @OMGTheMess Kinda sorta bloody oath. I got my pay rise, I'll be paying $22k in tax plus all the other taxes and council rates and water rates and electricity. Then I pay for Foxtel and internet and mobile phone. And then have to eat. And I don't live in a city. Poor people who do.
