  @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

  @PhilGould15 Sir, could we please look at starting our own channel to watch just our own games? I'm tired of giving those sour ***** at Fox my money. After listening to Voss and whatever the other has been's name is, I'm ready to cancel Foxtel after 20 yrs.

  @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

  @lui_zacher The foxtel clock froze. The actual time clock was still counting down. So in the end it was explained last night of the coverage & no time was lost.

  @FOXNRL I signed up for Foxtel in 1992 primarily for the rugby league coverage….i hope like hell they lose the broadcast rights ! Ennis, Voss, Duke, Alexander are ****** terrible commentators

  @LisaB_29 $350 is not bad compared to foxtel & Kayo.

  @vanOnselenP I wasn't poking fun at you just using a factual example . If this game was on Foxtel / ABC its a non issue .

  @LeagueScenePod Paying fans that get kayo or Foxtel shouldn’t be forced to watch grand finals and origin games on a **** free to air with commercials.

  @Foxtel and @Telstra will yiu get rid of your not answering chats in your page. I’m a human and want to speak with a human . ***** sake where is customer service these days

  @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.

  @Kate3015 Just like Foxtel, AGL, & others do, the broken English is so difficult to deal with most times

  Mark Fawcett (@mfawcett1977) reported 46 minutes ago

  @Tuxy81 These streaming companies will never learn. Prices here in Australia are more than the Foxtel everybody replaced them with. Streaming was meant to be cheaper than cable, but here we are.

  @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.

  never forget when my family had foxtel iq and my dad had every single episode of bar rescue recorded

  Trev (@trevapchichi) reported 50 minutes ago

  @SoundingBoardEp @DrinkWiseAus For next years Hall of Fame, will Foxtel be asking Crown to serve meals on plastic plates? The sound of cutlery smacking crockery during Bill Walkers elevation was just horrible TV

  “Smash Her” (@dougjones90909) reported 52 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.

  Wtf, what's going on you overpriced pricks @Foxtel #NRLRaidersPanthers

  @MichaelPascoe01 NRL before the kids. It’s directly related to Foxtel and Nine's broadcast rights with the NRL. Non gambling Advertising revenue is down so the only income these mobs will get for the footy is from Gambling. If labor bans Gambling ads the NRL won’t get same the money for the deal

  @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.

  @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?

  I hate watching on nine but **** foxtel and Kayo. Go hard nine.

  mark macca 🐅🐅🏆 (@mcdonellaussie) reported 58 minutes ago

  @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

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

  @RalphyHeraldSun Channel 7 is blurry crap. Hate Grand Final day when Foxtel can't telecast the game in 4k Ultra.
