    @SydneyCityTV … and while Murdoch only owned half of the network that operated a third of the industry, his charisma overpowered the other proprietors handily: if he didn’t like the ABC lining up on Foxtel-Optus-Galaxy, then there wouldn’t be a place for them. That was a year earlier.

  • TopOfTheHats Mobian-Storyteller (Jaxon) 🇦🇺 (@TopOfTheHats) reported

    @AirCrash_ Assuming Cineflex doesn't take them down the moment they appear online before we can even watch them as I don't have Foxtel.

  • bolangum Alex🇦🇺🖖🌞😎🏊🏽🦈🦠😷 (@bolangum) reported

    @KristyanaF @NickBryantNY @vanbadham Oh, he did, remember MySpace? It was ahead of FB in the early days. He’s such a dinosaur, saw no future, killed it. Then, NBN fibre to premises would have killed his Foxtel cable network in the cities. Guess what happened to NBN? Now we’re 68th in world rankings.

    I never bought foxtel. Pleased with the product, the coverage and the passing tonight. Good to be watching rugby again. #REDvWAR

  • another_luke_ Luke Dingwall (@another_luke_) reported

    @RugbyAU @ScottMorrisonMP Australian public figers are all ***** and wankers. You take our freedoms and choices to line your own pockets. You took Rugby from Foxtel now i need to buy yet another subscritions to another strwming service to watch the NZ rugby. Our NBN never works

  • ScottyP6849 Scotty P (@ScottyP6849) reported

    @StanSportAU Watching some Super Rugby from 2020 using the Foxtel Now box. There's a bad picture judder happening on my screen. This isn't a problem with the fox sports and beIN channels on the same box. It's even worse on Chromecast.

  • Miss_T1000 Lisaaaaa...RP❤️🇷🇸 🇦🇺🇦🇺🍾🐩🐩🛩🐈🐈🐈 (@Miss_T1000) reported

    @parah_robert @Foxtel kool. Its not bad, I like it. There are 2 of them.

  • KR_1973 KR (@KR_1973) reported

    @thewilllow @aflwomens Oh ok, sorry can’t help mate. I’m watching for the last time on Foxtel, Kayo from tomorrow

  • lLaxHp Ian Hopper (@lLaxHp) reported

    @ALeague @Foxtel @kayosports CCM should be about 3 ahead. Had the better chances, controlled the play. Adelaide look so nervous at the back and are still in it thanks to some terrible officiating.

  • ejlarryj Ej holden66 (@ejlarryj) reported

    @Therese_Rein I'd still like to know, why millions of dollars of taxpayers money was given to Foxtel.???...Fifield never explained that..Why does the Lib govt continue to donate money the Murdoch run businesses.???

  • stopit333 ALAN (@stopit333) reported

    @StanSportAU Why's my picture so choppy? It's giving me a headache and the game has only been going for a couple of minutes. Never had any issues with Foxtel.

  • colliric Richard Collins (@colliric) reported

    @SCReviewsmang @hbomax Never. HBO has a longterm exclusivity distribution deal with Foxtel(who also own Binge) which they renewed just last year. The best chance is for the HBOmax content to be piped by WB straight to Binge. Or for Foxtel to agree to rebrand it as HBOmax.

  • jase008 Jason Garner (@jase008) reported

    Trying to watch reply of the Tahs v Reds and stream keeps dropping out! Never had these issues with Foxtel or Kayo @stanaustralia

  • S8toriSatori Anthea Feline (@S8toriSatori) reported

    @Foxtel Hello 👋🏼 I don't have on demand. I don't think I ever have. Can you fix? Don't use multi screen. Anthea I have sent a message. This probs the 5th time. I have enquired about this issue.

  • allaussieman brad (@allaussieman) reported

    @Foxtel Sorry but the show is horrible. Where's BBC Casualty???

  • JamesWatts_ James Watts (@JamesWatts_) reported

    The third is also one of those ones that gets mixed up with the new IFAB rules. However, there was just way too much doubt to prove the wrong decision was made. It also doesn’t help that the quality of equipment Foxtel provides is rubbish. #Aleague

  • Uber331 Eastern Suburbs (@Uber331) reported

    @foxtel. You are idiots !!! Just called re an picture ssue and you hadn’t updated my new address from three months ago You updated it and then cut off my service thinking it’s the address I left three months ago You are useless !!!!! 🥊

  • sportingphotos Sporting Photos (@sportingphotos) reported

    Rupert ran a hard fought campy and got his team elected, they killed the roll out. In 2020 the world went to ****, the country worked out how bad our internet was for those on FTTN. But 2 years earlier Foxtel started Kayo, Foxtel go, owned 50% with 9 in Stan

  • jase008 Jason Garner (@jase008) reported

    Trying to watch replay and stream keeps dropping out! Never had this isssue with Foxtel or Kayo!

  • neil_borg Neil Borg (@neil_borg) reported

    @SCReviewsmang @hbomax Foxtel sucks ***. Shitful quality streaming and an absolute ****** ripoff.

  • DaveMash17 Dave Mash (@DaveMash17) reported

    @westernforce what a disaster a good game spoilt by terrible referee.. this is what kills the sport when you have inexperienced adjudicators its enough that the last RA CEO lost the FOXTEL sponsor due to her arrogant stubbiness .. now we have to watch a good game no referee

  • Parkernomics Brian Parker (@Parkernomics) reported

    Ok @FOXTEL_Help and @Foxtel one of my set top boxes blew up last night how do I arrange to get a replacement sent out and the wreckage returned? bTW your sms service and your main call line are useless. Kindest regards BP Only Twitter seems to work.

  • heywood_admiral Admiral Heywood UK (@heywood_admiral) reported

    @PQuoll @littlefia1 @Foxtel One should never stand on a boat! Far too dangerous 😬 I suppose he feels it’s putting physical distance between him and Charlotte? Like he needed to break the spell, because it was a bit risky them being out there alone together! #Sanditon #SaveSanditon #SanditonPBS

  • alexander_irby Alexander Irby (@alexander_irby) reported

    @Telstra when will Disney+ be available to use on Telstra TV? Its been 2 years since Disney+ was released and it is on every other service such as Foxtel boxes, gaming consoles, smart TVs. Are you suggesting that your customers move to something else to use the services?

  • parah_robert robert parah (@parah_robert) reported

    @Miss_T1000 @Foxtel Never saw it

  • thatbigfattart HRH Fruitloop I (@thatbigfattart) reported

    @KeirAndo @StanSportAU Never grew on Foxtel either...

  • PsychicHygiene Trixie Gorgonski (@PsychicHygiene) reported

    @eatapussrex1 I'd forgotten he shut down 60 community papers, over a hundred regional papers & smuggled Foxtel out of NewsCorp Australia to Delaware, so figure is less now. Soz.

    @randal_m_smith @iiNet Been with @Foxtel NBN for two years. Never had an issue

  • mtngry M.Gray (@mtngry) reported

    @FreemanrugbyJPN Just announced it will stream in Oz on STAN ( same service that has Super rugby) Seriously considering dropping Foxtel/Sky sport and getting it.
