    It's got Australian streaming now... but only on Binge and Foxtel Now (both owned by Foxtel). **** that. I got rid of Foxtel, not going back for 1 movie.

    @NatalieGermanos Foxtel showed the ENG Women's series live -including SA games, Women's T20 Challenge & WCPL They really need to start televising ALL WBBL on mainboard cast TV instead of via streaming service - or they could find themselves failing behind with more Women's T20 leagues starting

    @julia_zemiro @RocKwiz I see after all your morally righteous blatherings against News Corp and Murdoch you're now off to pick up a check from him on Foxtel. Christ the left are thunderously stupid and even worse epic in their hypocrisy. Don't ever talk again until you say "no I refuse to work for RM"?

    @BurkeHellibee @mjgal Foxtel is the reason this programme will fail to continue since the majority of Rockwiz's long term fans will avoid Foxtel with regularity!

    @BatcaveSlimer @FreoSceptic So why let Foxtel broadcast their games? Surely News Corp has done more damage?

    @upyacoight @FOXFOOTY @AFL Gil is another imbecile. Blind Freddy could sell the TV rights to Ch7 & Foxtel....same crap every year. All ex footballers on the TV talking the same scripted rubbish. Insular recruiting and recycling....Look at Wayne Carey, it took 20 strikes to finally see him banished!!

    @PeterMags3 That's so bloody stupid. So it's purely just using the Foxtel feed off whatever channel they have "baseball" on. Ridiculous.

    @me_dc @steveburgess23 He will never say a word about the AFL, they are way too powerful, it is easy to have a go at Rugby League. He worked for news corp/foxtel for 20 years & he never said a peep against them, until he had left & then went on an anti murdoch tirade. Isn't that right @simonhill1894?

    Using Cricket Australia’s coverage of WBBL on @Foxtel is very poor. Wrong batters indicated, wrong bowlers, slow scoring. Is this to save money?

    @FOXTEL_Help The power in my suburb was down for planned maintenance. Ever since my power came back on my Foxtel IQ3 isn’t working. It keeps coming up with an orange light. I’ve restarted the box, unplugged and plugged the HDMI cable back in, and checked the coax cable. Thoughts?

    @DamTom79 @GemmaTognini Apologies, I misspoke. I thought this was ‘repeats’ going to Foxtel. Hence she should donate any royalties. I just discovered it’s a ‘reboot’. Wow what a hypocrite! I like some of your work Julia, love Fisk, but come on, really!!! At least admit Murdoch companies are not all bad.

  • NBLpocketpod

    The bad news - NBL opening night failed to crack the Top 20 on Foxtel. Audience sub 18K. 75K tuned into the Women’s World Cup but didn’t hang around for the NBL men (perhaps deterred by the outage). For comparison; a replay of Escape to the Country banked 27K that day.

    @Goto919 @poya_gabriel @PeterDellaPenna Issue was there was a 2 over period on Kayo in second inning when you couldn't see it as they cut the broadcast to the WBBL pregame. Your point is valid, but for this Scotland case can't change it from 503 to 501 if not watching on foxtel

    The bad news - NBL opening day failed to crack the Top 20 on Foxtel (sub 21K). 31K enjoyed the Women’s World Cup, but declined to hang around for the Mens NBL. Perhaps deterred by the broadcast outage.

    Renata (@itsrenatak) reported

    My mum has Foxtel but had a problem with the box not responding so I told my mum how to reboot her box without actually switching it off as you just hold and press the on/off button on the Foxtel box until you see it rebooting on screen.

    @WWE @WWENetwork @WWE why do I pay for wwe network in Australia to watch raw live but there is no raw live ? It’s a waste of money we left missing out. Foxtel is a joke in australia no one cares about it. Why don’t u stream raw live
