    @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.

    @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

    @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.

    @rohan_connolly @colonelhogans Don’t worry too much. Enduring the cats swans on Foxtel was painful. If it wasn’t Dwayne the pain talking ****, it was camera work which failed miserably. Absolute rubbish. Switch over to the pies game and you’ve gotta listen to back door Lyon and Howie. And the umpiring…pfft

    @Sarcastic_Cow @FOXTEL_Help Costs keep going up and standard going down. Few years ago there would be maybe 2 or 3 replays for every club.

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

    @xskinn Save your sanity. Screw Rupert Murdoch. Cancel anything through Foxtel, especially the fictional program “Sky News”. If you want something more factual than Sky News, I recommend Nieghbours, Home & Away, Days of our Lives, & importantly, Bluey. #SaveOurABC #FuckBillionaires

    @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.

    I wish. The watered down version of World Movies has just as many English speaking films as it does foreign films. The should give it back to Foxtel and allow R rated movies again.

    Greg Swann should come out in this AFL360 interview and say the biggest issue of the week wasnt the umpiring. It was the coverage of Anzac Day with no crowd noise from Foxtel. #AFL #AFL360

    @Theblackfemini3 I’m with you I have every bloody streaming service but there just all repeats from the old Foxtel and the new crap only a gem here and there but for 3 months now **** all to watch on any of them

    @kayosports @Foxtel tv director has to lose his job after this performance. This might be the worst major sporting event coverage I’ve ever seen #AFLDonsPies

    @BillWiIdin I was on the phone to a foxtel employee who put me on hold 3 times to go and check her son who had broken her leg. At least she was honest about it but yeah a 15min phone call ended up taking 45mins. Not productive at all.

    Given how much we pay for @Foxtel it would nice to see more flexibility like the US version. Why dont we have incar camera choice, maps, timing screens? Why do we get the bog standard international feed with crap biased Sky commentary? Upgrade please or give us @Apple @F1

    @pantherman45 Kayo is all ready $46 a month for a flawed service. How much does it go to if Foxtel has to pay more for the NRL?

    Truly terrible coverage with sound dropouts at the most important moments tonight Foxtel. Not worth the $113/month we pay to simply watch the game. #AFLDonsPies

    @StanSportAU we don’t want advertising during live sport. That’s the deal I signed up to. Now you’ve changed the deal. I’m a Premium continuous customer paying $42 pm. Just like I cancelled #foxtel I will cancel you. #9entertainment

    Realistically Nine are the only FTA TV network that maybe could afford the World Cup rights. Ten would have to partner with Foxtel. Seven...no way could they do it not with AFL, cricket and maybe NRL on their network...they would be paying a lot for all three sports just there.

    @Quartermain10 "Technical difficulties" don't cover the continuous stuff ups where we watching replays instead of live centre bounce contests. Very poor direction from Foxtel, should be 100% better for the subscription cost!

    Do remenber watching this on Foxtel many years ago back in 2012 and recall saying to myself if what she is saying is true i hope people wake up because we are in a lot of trouble

    @FOXFOOTY It’s almost time to cancel my Foxtel membership this is a disgrace. No mic on the umpire (viewer can’t hear whistle), and this camera angle is off centre? Are you guys serious?
