  @footyindustryAU Can i ask a stupid question? Why did Dazn need to buy Foxtel? Why couldnt they just save there cash and bid for the rights of the NRL, AFL when it comes up etc? I mean Foxtel (Fox Sports) are worth nothing without the rights in the first place?

  @MotoGP why do I actually give you money ? Your app coverage is **** and completely inconsistent. No functioning service . Cancelation request incoming. Guess Foxtel gets your money now.

  Logging into Foxtel to see Newcastle up 42-38 What ******** is that? Congrats on ******* up your product @NRL

  @LeagueFreak Kerry Packer believed you bid the maximum you can so if you loose to anyone else - you know they will be worst off than you. Foxtel knows it will lose half their subscriptions if they lose the NRL. And that means it will go broke because they already over paid for the AFL.

  **** 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.

  @BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.

  @puntingbattler @WSWanderingEels It’s near useless data imo. It doesn’t include Foxtel. It may be the same for Ch9 and the NRL but the Ch7 AFL commentary is garbage. No one that has the choice would be choosing that and the ads after goals

  Late to starting Dynamite because I had to install a new cable box (**** @Foxtel btw). But starting now so hopefully it’s a good show #AEWDynamite

  @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help And if you ring up you get someone from overseas who has no idea, offers you nothing and you get nowhere. If only there was another pay service to give them competition.

  @hashjenni Foxtel is garbage now, they keep replaying the same crappy movies in a loop.

  T158 (@trobb158) reported 17 minutes ago

  @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.

  RatFinky (@de32344) reported 17 minutes ago

  Surprised Channel 7 didn’t choose to show Foxtel broadcast for an AFL milestone; Pendlebury breaking AFL games record. Not a Collingwood fan/supporter, but there are loyal Collingwood fans/supporters who only have access to Free to Air. Stupid move as usual from Channel 7. 🙄😒

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

  Shaun ⚽️ (@InTheMixer) reported 22 minutes ago

  The WU are unlikely coming back and Reddit Rumours that Macarthur are handing back their licence. Literally every Code Football article is negative. I hope David Gallop never gets a job again and that Foxtel/Kayo is liquidated and offshored by DAZN. #BestLeagueInTheWorld

  kristen (@_kjerkovich) reported 24 minutes ago

  @Foxtel can you please fix your Kayo Minis and full replay for the Freo v Hawks game last night?? Having only the 2min Sportsbet Preview available to stream is poor form 20+ hrs later!!!

  I haven’t been able to record for a month, now i’ve lost all the recordings I had. Did they help? No, of course not why would they it’s not like it’s their job. **** you #Foxtel How about giving some help and care to one of your few remaining customers, or am I asking too much?

  @DrG2020V @GregDavis006 From what I have seen on Foxtel, it’s pretty bad

  @footyindustryAU Well if that happened I would immediately stop my foxtel service

  catherine (@CathP82) reported 34 minutes ago

  @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.

  Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported 35 minutes ago

  @GregDavis006 Imagine the poor ***** who don't have Foxtel and have to watch channel 9 for all their footie all year! I'd just stop.

  one of the main reasons i persist with foxtel is to watch #redv games. saints are really tempting me in to giving it up. if it wasnt for cricket and a few shows i really like it would be gone cmon, @NRL_Dragons , get your **** together

  @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

  Rock Sniffer (@SniffRocks) reported 41 minutes ago

  @Raiders_24Sep89 We need Foxtel not to own it kayo is garbage & will cost $500 a year soon for a tax payer subsidised sport. Channel 7 & 9 split coverage, ad free games on stan or similar

  @ausbtcclub We get absolutely **** all for working hard here in Oz. I had job and separate business with mates. Struggled for 8 years and everyone made money from the business except us. Electricity, Gas, Foxtel, wages, rent, rates, tax, gst, employee super. @mrYodaJ @fiftyshadezof1
