    Kayo is such a rubbish streaming service, all thanks to those retards at Foxtel for giving them exclusive broadcasting rights. When the Footy is over I'm gonna buy another region's F1TV and watch there. This is garbage.

    @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help How are we meant to watch anything when we keep getting playback errors popping up the last 2 days? Surely you come up with a resolution

    **** this, I'm going out today to spend $3k on a media setup. I'm going back to just pirating TV/Movies. It's not because I am not willing to pay, its I am tired of paying subscription services and having everything so fragmented and being Nickel and Dimed by the services. When we worked on HD Streaming in the 2000's we set the foundation up for the industry to make video possible more easier. Even back then convincing Hollywood / TV Networks to abandon physical media for streaming was a huge undertaking in itself. They just were ******* in contracts with the creators of content and couldn't find a way to make online work. Fast forward 20 years later and this is the **** we end up with. It literally is just easier to pirate than its to keep doing this. atm I pay for: HBO Max Stan FoxTel Primewire Paramount Netflix Disney+ BritTv (i forgot to cancel the trial fml) AppleTV+ Its about $160 a month AUD I can't find half the **** i want to watch and the stuff that I want to watch is full of ads, or you have to then pay extra ontop. I'm out. stfu ... I'ma use AI to setup a complete end to end media experience.

    @NorthBankNadim @SkySports I totally agree with this that’s why I’ve pulled the pin on my Sky subscription recently as they have stopped low with this type of hater …Sky sports news has definitely gone down hill I even used to watch it in the 90s in Australia on foxtel

    @LeagueScenePod NRL won’t go for this. V’landys has said numorous times that he wants $4 billion for 5 years. This offer is $4 billion for 7 years which is worst than what the current AFL deal is. Foxtel needs this deal more than the NRL at this stage.

    @onepercentas I have never watched less games, and almost nothing of the AFL tv shows than I ever have before. Will be cancelling my Foxtel and not going again this year.

    @A1dynRL @ALeagueHQ Many issues with the A league, its promotion and its coverage. Love to know the audience on paramount + vs Foxtel days… quality of marquee players has gone down hill and it just lacks the spark it had when Melbourne V Sydney on multiple times packed marvel stadium back then

    Hey @Foxtel the next time I hear your AFL football commentators describe something as "elite", I will 1) Vomit and 2) Cancel my subscription. Enough of this repetitive garbage, I beg you. @AFL

    @bimmyjartel @FOXTEL_Help That’s it, isn’t it? They have no competition so they don’t care how they treat people. Like Australia Post. They don’t have competition, so they don’t care.

    @7AFL I hope so or I’ll be going down the pub to watch Foxtel.

    @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.

    @Foxtel Paying $30 a month for an inadequate Kayo app! By far the worst app streaming. Do you think you might fix your painful app so that we can actually use the forward and replay buttons without being pushed to ads or having to start from the beginning???

    @strangerous10 @ItsBouquet Why does anyone take notice of our former unelected PM. Poor Foxtel backing a losing supporter of the LNP, who are being replaced by One Nation. Will Pauline now get top billing?

    @ColettaFrank @Gatty54 Foxtel are flooding their ‘crap’ programs with the cringeworthy ads for the circus at the White House, calling it the greatest sports event in history.

  • Nigeyboyl7do
    Nigeyboy (@Nigeyboyl7do) reported

    @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.

    @C1_1RIS As an international fan, I find it ridiculous that the entire season isnt broadcasted by the same company But it also isn't my problem cuz foxtel broadcasts the whole season

    @ruicharadrius Wifi here is like wifi anywhere, afaik. Perhaps you mean bandwidth. For that problem blame the government that thought fibre to premises was overkill. Turnbull, under the thumb of Murdoch who was protecting Foxtel. We don’t hate Murdoch enough.

    @fa37376 Do you understand how much money Qatar and the UAE have? Saudi Arabia have a minority stake in DAZN who bought Foxtel which plays Sydney games on it. They can’t take it back, but they could have easily renewed the sponsorship, instead they turned down the money.
