    @OMGTheMess Hahaha. Yeah televise women’s sport. That was proven to be bs. That’s what they ‘claimed’ it was for. And estimates proved not a single additional women’s sport was televised. Also Foxtel never even asked for the money or reported what they did with it. $40m given away.

    @BigdogGC77 @gilby_gillard @kayosports When you say losing customers? Are people moving over to Foxtel? Or how else do you watch sport? Genuinely curious, I’ve got Foxtel so never had Kayo, seems like a terrible service

    @thebigjohnnyd @MercJestr I had recorded something on my Foxtel box, came back to watch it and it wouldn't play it because they no longer had the rights to it. FFS not asking you to keep streaming it, but let me watch what's recorded. This never happened back in the olden days when I recorded to a VCR

    @Pivotonian1838 @10 @FOXFOOTY Ditto. Foxtel is becoming quite dear. We'll hang onto it because of the footy but they don't reward you for being loyal.

    @hillfolkAU Yep let’s sack the guy who was COO for a private uk bus/train operator and worked as a higher up in London rail for someone who’s experience was customer operations at Foxtel … Maybe she’s good but wish they indexed more on transport expertise 🤷🏻

    @FkYeahMatt Is it really? Or is it a Foxtel rebroadcasting service? Channel 504 showed the Swans game then the AFLW international.

    @leighjones0212 @Foxtel Haven’t watched that show since he started hosting. And Lyon for Robbo was a poor trade as well.

    Karalee Katsambanis has blocked me on Instagram, but my complaint is in with Sky via Foxtel who is my streaming platform. If they don’t respond I will be lodging a complaint with ACMA. She could just apologise.

    @craigspeculator @Foxtel Sorry for your loss Craig. I am working through my mum’s huge pile of paper to find out what needs paying and cancelling. Worst so far is her lawyer who was incredibly rude and refused to share her will without her death certificate despite me being the executor.

    @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 🤦🤡

  • WSWanderingEels
    RichitiGrub (@WSWanderingEels) reported

    @Debre947 More games this year have a FTA component to them than previous. So Foxtel for the AFL will more than likely be down due to competing Free to air and doubling up multiple games and sometimes 3 game like the Sunday just past. Looks rosie but the numbers you don’t see will be poor.

    @hpglassford i joined foxtel the day they started doing afl no regrets never watch 7 at all now

  • dougjones90909
    “Smash Her” (@dougjones90909) reported

    @NRLMedia What an awful outcome for fans. Higher prices. Still have to watch the biggest games on nine in their ****** “HD”. Games covered by nine still not in 4K on Foxtel. ******* pathetic. It’s 2026 FFS, not 1990.

    @FOXFOOTY @Foxtel what the hell is going on??? Why am I watching 2 channels of footy in INDIAN???? Sort this crap out #afldogstigers

    @Markedw For the SBS to outbid the likes of foxtel or Amazon . If a publicly funded network can outbid paid services.. maybe it should be looked at

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

    @filmgeek_rq Yep absolute **** show. Murdoch said you’ll kill Foxtel so don’t let fibre happen, so Abbott dutifully obliged said ‘25mbps’ was sufficient. We’ve wasted billions on this the original plan was clearly the way to go.

  • wallybechara
    wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported

    @WSWanderingEels All those games where afl show multiple games on seven as one game, the Foxtel ratings would be awful. Guess we never know but I used to see some games getting 80k on Fox. On par with what a league and super rugby used to get

  • Ports83
    Adrian Portia (@Ports83) reported

    @Kaneeade @DrewPavlou @MsMelChen He never said he watched him play. He just said he watched him on television. Boz was on tv often when Foxtel had the A-League and EPL rights

    Why does ******* Foxtel need 5 firms if if to register a complaint . Seriously get some consumer action scout you for gods sake

    @SportMoments0 You do realise the population has more than doubled in Melbourne since the 80s.. and there are more games. Crowds are down, without the Foxtel deal the AFL would be broke

    @Chris1qjt @ItWasATea I just looked up to see if it will be on Hayu here in Aus, and it's currently saying no, only on E network via Foxtel and their VOD services. So streaming on some dodgy site it is, I guess lol

  • FreoPope
    Freo ⚓ Pope (@FreoPope) reported

    @FkYeahMatt I think Kayo just picks up Foxtel channels & re-packages them into streams. Foxtel is focused on their channels & they stayed to the end of the Swans game that ran over due to a bad injury, before they switched to the AFLW. Don't think Kayo produces shows that are on FoxFooty

    @centralNRL Holy ****, we are finally close to being rid of Matt Thompson. Go on Foxtel

    @craigspeculator @Foxtel Gross.. when we had to cancel our dog food subscription they asked why (can cancel online) we told them he died. They sent us a candle with his name on it. Honestly such a small gesture.. trying to keep a subscription in this situation feels a bit gross.

    @Kjmac89 @gilby_gillard @kayosports Which means I’ll miss games But I refuse to pay $50 a month for a **** service I’m not sure foxtel is much better How much is fox?

    @banditkayfabe WWF RAW was on Fox Sports 1 on Foxtel at 8.30pm on a Tuesday night for us. Always a few hours late but I was glued every week for about 5-6 years solid without fail.

    @Sheiknbake1313 @kanecornes @Colvick Old mate in the rugby league PVL loves tv ratings its all they have, and fair play they were able to convince foxtel and the like to pay a stupid amount of money to air 20 ppl in a stadium watching it
