-
Matt McDermott (@MattMcDermott74) reported@vanOnselenP I wasn't poking fun at you just using a factual example . If this game was on Foxtel / ABC its a non issue .
-
antqld (@antqldbwog) reported@timellisau @Jousting_Sticks Never used Foxtel but I always assumed they deliberately made Kayo so ****** you had to pay the extra $$$ to use Foxtel and get extra features like 4k.
-
Arts Desire (@artsdesire) reported@LisaB_29 $350 is not bad compared to foxtel & Kayo.
-
Voicey (@Dubhgall90) reported@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?
-
.H.Ɔ.ꟼ (@IWasBornIn1975) reported@Benjahhhmin @ReadingThePlay I had nothing but buffering issues with Kayo to the point where I thought "**** it, I'm paying for it anyway so.....I got Foxtel. Sometimes I think that's the whole point of Kayo's ********* all-round service.....get their customers frustrated enough to go pay for Foxtel.....
-
Fine Cotton (@mr_finecotton) reported@Foxtel u say u provide the best entertainment & sport.... the latest series of The Secret of Skinwalker Ranch premiered 19 May 2026 in the USA.... It's July & youre still not screening in Aust - why am I paying $100/mth for second rate service? @HISTORY @BrandonFugal
-
Andrew (@Andrew664621) reported@Jousting_Sticks Of course it is, but consider the majority of your footy watchers are 10 cans or pots deep on the couch or at the pub, it’s hardly something they’re going to cancel their kayo or Foxtel membership over.
-
DJ Jazzy Not Jeff (@DJ_Jazzy_JD) reported@golfon5 @AFL It was fine on Ch7. Hust a foxtel issue.
-
K•A•N•E (@kanethesaint) reported@KobieThatcher I'm still unsure how they measure how many people watch it as I've never seen a survey for it. Free to Air over Antenna is receive only as is Foxtel over satellite. I don't know many that watch FTA via the app.
-
John Money (Real name on ID) (@DrJMoneyPHD) reported@ItsPoletti foxtel chose 2 clubs that should have never have been picked before dumping the league & now one of them is statement fc
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels All those games where afl show multiple games on seven as one game, the Foxtel ratings would be awful. Guess we never know but I used to see some games getting 80k on Fox. On par with what a league and super rugby used to get
-
Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reportedI 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.
-
Paulo Yarb (@PauloYarb) reported@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
-
wolvesjr34 (@wolvesjr34) reportedI legit think anyone who pays for Kayo is not very smart. Pay a little more and get access to so much more with Foxtel. Kayo is unreliable, and a rip off... legit the only streaming service I ever tried for one month and was like, nope, never again.
-
NRLBOSS (@1WeakGuttedDog) reported@banditkayfabe WWF RAW was on Fox Sports 1 on Foxtel at 8.30pm on a Tuesday night for us. Always a few hours late but I was glued every week for about 5-6 years solid without fail.
-
MelMorris (@morrisperry) reportedUm @Foxtel we seem to have a language programming problem hahaha
-
dixy (@DorothyDixer12) reported@barblbake @CaraMia200 Yes l know. In a large rural town l was staying at a friends house watching Aust open through foxtel (Yes l know) all went down no storms sound lost not one call centre knew what was going on Rural Australia has been thrown out with the fish kills
-
Kurt (@kurtjj95) reported@centralNRL Holy ****, we are finally close to being rid of Matt Thompson. Go on Foxtel
-
Renee Pope-Munro (@RenInOz) reported@Chris1qjt @ItWasATea I just looked up to see if it will be on Hayu here in Aus, and it's currently saying no, only on E network via Foxtel and their VOD services. So streaming on some dodgy site it is, I guess lol
-
Briggsy (@champingyon) reportedThe Foxtel commentary team for this Titans vs Manly game could be the worst of all time....
-
Crowdiegal (@crowdiegal) reportedRealistically 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.
-
Jackie Chan (@JackieChan87805) reported@Tksed_1 @FinancialReview Stan is struggling with B grade sports content Rugby EPL etc & thats the groups biggest income source.. They made a bold , HUGE play for the biggest sport in the land the NRL & that would have seriously harmed DAZN/foxtels viability so DAZN/foxtel said **** you !!
-
The Steps (@mcnamara_team) reported@clarke3110 @bondiroosters Yep, Kayo is just the revamped Foxtel rip off. The AFL and NRL have let down the supporters, won’t be long until the attendance to games drops because the general lack of interest is.
-
Tiger Pops69 (@tigerpops69) reported@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
-
Judy Bourke (@judithbourke) reported@TraceyLee_07 Try Foxtel all it is repeats Really we are paying for a service not repeats
-
Chris. ⚓️ (@mr_chitafa) reported@Jousting_Sticks This isn’t a kayo problem. This is a Foxtel problem. If you hate the Kayo app so much. It Foxtel instead.
-
Biscuitman (@biscuitman007) reported@Hugh_96 @balumbah I agree, as there's no accountability in RA. You can fail and fail again, and no transparency. My view is that 3 years after the RWC, when the money runs out, Foxtel will buy rugby for peanuts. Only then will it get fixed.
-
wb1234 (@wallybechara) reported@WSWanderingEels My idea down the track is Saturday 930 nrl game (good for Perth) feeding directly into an earlier super league game. That would get them decent coin. Like when they go to 11 or 12 games. They can afford Foxtel so much more value down the track, afl can’t.
-
Ric S. AU (@RicS37759479) reported@Pivotonian1838 @SkyNewsAust @Foxtel ADS...bad ads for retards,ultratards who might want to light up the ole fishn hole.
-
Matlock (@Matlock47825386) reported@filmgeek_rq Yep absolute **** show. Murdoch said you’ll kill Foxtel so don’t let fibre happen, so Abbott dutifully obliged said ‘25mbps’ was sufficient. We’ve wasted billions on this the original plan was clearly the way to go.
