  • timmartin32 Tim Martin 🇦🇺 (@timmartin32) reported

    Any true Australian has just cancelled their Foxtel, not one Aussie remembered on Anzac Day, just crap fake Hollywood. Rupert Murdoch, you filthy selfish scum.

  • dukesrule Voyage (@dukesrule) reported

    @JakeNiallTHEAGE @AFL If it means we get new commentators and get rid of the crap from Foxtel and 7, I'm all for it!!

  • benno_76 Ben 🏆 (@benno_76) reported

    Like with Cricket Australia, the AFL will use Network Ten as the patsy to sharpen the Murdoch pencil. Foxtel/Kayo is not a viable product sans footy in the cord cut era. News will pay meggggga bucks

  • Fred95290375 Fred (@Fred95290375) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Sensationalised women's day gutter journalism. They won't change until people stop watching it. Just watch the games and leave the women's day crap to the so called experts

  • Mattys123 Matt (@Mattys123) reported

    @Will_O_Journo 153? You mad? I pay 43 a month to them and I think that's too much lol. I hope they lose the rights. No reason to hang onto foxtel after that

  • AnthonyDepaoli Anthony D (@AnthonyDepaoli) reported

    @JakeNiallTHEAGE @AFL Would any game shown on paramount also be shown on foxtel? Surely u cant have a game only shown on a streaming service?

  • teresi_tommy Tommy Teresi (@teresi_tommy) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Paul Crawley is a hack journo. The bloke gets on and criticises everyone yet deleted his Twitter because he was struggling with the constant crap he got from fans in the comments. Stick him in the bin

  • BillWatterson6 Bill Watterson (@BillWatterson6) reported

    @Shiner82480499 @abcnews The nbn was set up as a government run company. The NBN was gutted by the LNP because Rupert didn't want competition to Foxtel. There was always government funding for NBN. You have just shown how ignorant you are and how stupid you are.

  • BenitoFolino Benito Folino (@BenitoFolino) reported

    @JakeNiallTHEAGE @AFL Fantastic. I can finally cancel my Foxtel subscription. I only have it for the AFL.

  • DAM01983 DΛMΘ (@DAM01983) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports If that was a player from a bottom 8 side or a player with a bad rep - would have been binned straight away or even sent off

  • LightKnightAceT LightKnight (@LightKnightAceT) reported

    @rPrequelMemes Wait, srsly... Commercials? Every movie service has ads now. Remember when VHS tapes were ad-free, and when DVD rentals were ad-free, and when digital TV was ad-free, and when foxtel (or similar) services were ad-free and when pirating was ad-free.

  • Calbert1994 Chris (@Calbert1994) reported

    @Nerds4lifeSC @SENBreakfast @Sammy__Edmund Is the Foxtel sports package spun off in a streaming service. Foxtel and Kayo are the same.

  • waghorn25 NOVA (@waghorn25) reported

    @AnthonyDepaoli @JakeNiallTHEAGE @AFL No. Foxtel is essentially also a streaming service. Paramount would hold the rights in this scenario and games would be shown there and not on foxtel, as per the article.

  • azmaidman08 Az Maidman (@azmaidman08) reported

    Didn't realise how good foxtel 'fox docos' channel is. Can find out anything u never thought u needed to know. 👌

  • pong_dong_ Pong **** (@pong_dong_) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Can we please get Crawley off TV? Kenty,and Hoops are bad enough to put up with with this flog makes me turn it off

  • GazSol65 Gaz Connoisuer of Spaghetti Marinara (@GazSol65) reported

    @Foxtel FFS Foxtel or fckn Kayo, sort ur fckn **** out - replay Magpies v Bombers not active!! Why do I pay????

  • ToddyGreaser Todd G (@ToddyGreaser) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Well guess what, new **** happens every day…just cause something hasn’t happened before doesn’t mean it’s not allowed to happen now…hey champ while you’re at it, how’s sticky going?

  • evilray67 evilray67 (@evilray67) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports I don't believe that there has been any hype about Verrills. Was injured and hardly played last year, and only just come back in to a struggling outfit. Slow news week with no ammunition for him after Wests won two in a row.

  • brycewould Bryce (@brycewould) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports I think someone has daddy issues and is jealous…

  • JimmyFo41767163 Jimmy Fox (@JimmyFo41767163) reported

    @AnthonyDepaoli @JakeNiallTHEAGE @AFL Foxtel is basically a streaming service now anyway

  • RobbieR06269513 Dave Cena (@RobbieR06269513) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports I don't think Verrills was the problem.

  • jenko0923 JESSEE JENKINSON /. (@jenko0923) reported

    @Mattys123 Football Australia don’t really care tbh they don’t operate the Aleague anymore. CBS owns a stake in the Aleague now. Paramount bid for the EPL but lost. Building their network of sports like Foxtel did and subscribers which is the main metric.

  • PaulLenkic Paul Lenkic (@PaulLenkic) reported from Melbourne, State of Victoria

    My iQ5 has gone crazy. All of a sudden, it’s not detecting the Hard Drive and it’s not responding to the remote control. Super annoying when the person on live help chat closes the conversation before resolving anything. @Foxtel @FOXTEL_Help

  • kokain_dawkins Kokain Dawkins (@kokain_dawkins) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Some players need their manager in the waiting room to help with selection nothing wrong with that

  • yourcricketgod i cricket your ***** off (@yourcricketgod) reported

    @RationalPies The only difference would be that all the AFL Foxtel/Channel 7 staff would switch to 10/Paramount+ otherwise they're jobless. And, clearly, A-league was purchased just to do some practise and piss-around, treat it like a toy before they go for the big stuff.

  • garry1951b Garry (@garry1951b) reported

    @HumanHeadline @meadea Happily I don't waste my limited resources on Foxtel & Skynews. So won't be bothering to waste my time on this crap.

  • KylieT23 Kylie (@KylieT23) reported

    @Andy__Munro @AFL If that happens goodbye foxtel, I'll cancel that atraight away,

  • KrishanthRaja Krish (@KrishanthRaja) reported

    @Foxtel I've been a customer since 2009 and am on hold with you for 10+ minutes trying to cancel my subscription. Why don't you allow customers to cancel online? You certainly allow us to add packages and spend more money online! Dodgy tactics!
