  “Smash Her” (@dougjones90909) reported 3 minutes ago

  @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.

  @mary_hail20316 @KirstiMiller30 So pirate it then. Binge and Foxtel are both Murdoch properties. **** Murdoch!

  @pantherman45 Kayo is all ready $46 a month for a flawed service. How much does it go to if Foxtel has to pay more for the NRL?

  @IWonderWhyNow @Foxtel Like ffs, Carlton made it a 3pt game & the 1st thing kingy mentions is that Daicos has been on the bench for a few minutes....... *******.

  @FOXTEL_Help so apparently your live chat only works up to the point of saying “it’s still not working” and then they drop the chat.

  @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

  @Benjahhhmin @ReadingThePlay I had nothing but buffering issues with Kayo to the point where I thought "**** it, I'm paying for it anyway so.....I got Foxtel. Sometimes I think that's the whole point of Kayo's ********* all-round service.....get their customers frustrated enough to go pay for Foxtel.....

  @lui_zacher Lui pull the post down. It was a Foxtel error not a game day clock. ****

  @WSWanderingEels My idea down the track is Saturday 930 nrl game (good for Perth) feeding directly into an earlier super league game. That would get them decent coin. Like when they go to 11 or 12 games. They can afford Foxtel so much more value down the track, afl can’t.

  @ParamountPlusAU the Chelsea wanderers game is not working through Foxtel app

  Alice Stewart 🦂 (@Theretributor) reported 31 minutes ago

  @Ryandally08 Tony Abbott was made leader by his old mate Rupert Murdoch in order to put a very slow third rate internet system into Australia so it would not render his Foxtel by satellite service as being useless. Rupert has since sold Foxtel.

  Good goal, too bad we missed it because Foxtel are obsessed with showing replays of absolutely nothing #AFLLionsHawks

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

  @Katzo60 @smh I know it’s hard in a small country to have meaningful competition but the lack of free to air broadcasts is really bad . The foxtel/kayo offering is pathetic for the money they charge

  Tom Garner (@tom_garner) reported 39 minutes ago

  “There might be a change in broadcasters” Reading in far too much: - “might” - All on Sky on table? - No BBC? Bad IMO - huge reach. Unless ITV want it to add to rugby pfolio - On Pay TV. DAZN? Owns Foxtel so aligned with NRL, but £26 pm. TNT? Not the same production quality

  @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.

  @codenrl **** I feel sorry for people who don't have Foxtel and have to put up with retarded old **** head every week!

  and i need to find out how im gonna watch it cause i am not paying like 60 bucks a month for foxtel **** that😭😭

  GrumpyOldDad.bsky.social (@BjWittwer) reported 47 minutes ago

  @xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires

  Given how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1

  Ben (@bennyshelts) reported 48 minutes ago

  @andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.

  @footyindustryAU I reckon stays at kayo/foxtel. Look what happened to A-League and Rugby when they left. You never see them on pub tvs anymore. I mean the deal for that might not be worth it but for eyes on product?

• 
  Nat Geo (@___Geo__) reported 55 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?????

  @simmoh666 @FOXTEL_Help @Foxtel Everytime Kayo plays up I find Foxtel is no good too. I just presume they using the same platform to stream with. Paramount were crap for two year just with sports the rest was good. They obviously took notice and worked to improve their technology & fixed it! Or viewers dropped

  @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
