  • bimmyjartel Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported

    Foxtel said they found footage of Ryan Lester's concussion incident. Moons says an elbow, Dunstall says a hip to the head. I'm beblowed if I saw either of that. Wrong incident? #AFLPiesLions

  • Johnybegood911 Johny be good (@Johnybegood911) reported

    @WNSODM @Foxtel It’s horrible

  • fritz_n_sauce Fritz n Sauce (@fritz_n_sauce) reported

    @Johnybegood911 @Foxtel It seems they can't help themselves.

  • neverbesarah sarah 🤍 (@neverbesarah) reported

    So yeah I’m a 2007 Smiler… I didn’t even have the opportunity of being an OG 2006 Smiler because I was poor hahahahahhahaha. Ok not poor but not rich enough to have Foxtel/cable ✋

  • SirTiger9 SirTiger (@SirTiger9) reported

    @rohan_connolly How bad is the commentary on Foxtel? Is Garry Lyon paid by the word? He needs to shut up….and most of what he says is bullshit. It seems they are all in competition to see who can speak the most. Very, very annoying. Free to air….yeah.

  • mary_glass MARY GLASS (@mary_glass) reported

    @Foxtel can you please expedite the fix for the app which is no longer compatible with the google tv update recently carried out. I cannot watch Foxtel on some of my TV’s rendering me paying for the app useless. Please ensure your customers needs are being met or we will cancel.

  • Brian30988662 Brian (@Brian30988662) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports It’s from NRL360 on Fox.A show where they make up stories and attach commentary.Hooper was the worst but Crawley is just as bad.Irrelevant the lot of them.Stopped watching that show at least 2 years ago.

  • SonOfAWookiee Matt 🇦🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@SonOfAWookiee) reported

    @RalphyHeraldSun @FOXFOOTY To bad that @Foxtel’s app FoxtelGo is a useless piece of crap. I have to watch on my iPad and it freezes and plays up all the time. This on top of my Pies struggling made that game frustrating as hell.

  • Mike09127415 Lloyd Duff (@Mike09127415) reported

    @8biteric Remind me NEVER to have RTU in a cottage in the 70's Him "No Foxtel? I'll trash the place Why Eric because "I'M BORED" Eric "So? Read a book Take a walk into town and sit in the park and NOT go Johnny Depp on the place SHEESH" smack to the back of his head walking out

  • PiesMag PiesMag - Tobes (@PiesMag) reported

    @susan81444243 @3AWisfootball But no free to air on Saturdays. It doesn’t affect me cause I have Foxtel and watch every match there but I can understand the problem for those without it.

  • dangerpresent dangerpresent (@dangerpresent) reported

    @FOXNRL @Foxtel @kayosports Get them off the field. Such a crap response by the NRL. It's up to the field manager. This is why we have poor decisions week after week. No leadership and no accountability. I pray for the day we have a change and some person comes in and cleans all this BS up!!

  • KTsavaridis Kyri (@KTsavaridis) reported

    @Leo_Puglisi6 Absolute woke bullshit from Fox Footy. Maybe as well call the network Foxtel Football.

  • mackaysuzie Susan Mackay 😱 (@mackaysuzie) reported

    So a Foxtel NRL commentator stood down for drink driving

  • odden56 Andrew Kerr (@odden56) reported

    @BazNMFC @RalphyHeraldSun @FOXFOOTY Well get Kayo or Foxtel then nobody owes you ****

  • SonOfAWookiee Matt 🇦🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@SonOfAWookiee) reported

    FFS @Foxtel your #FoxtelGo app is completely useless. Not even half time of the @CollingwoodFC game and the feed has cut out three times. Every damn week. You’re a waste of money!

  • happyharrygrant Harry grant (@happyharrygrant) reported

    @3AWisfootball Majority games have always been on foxtel every week. Why is it only an issue when collingwood are playing in the game that’s not on 7, the club the gets more fta games then anyone else. What about north and saints supports etc that get a couple fta games a year

  • Johnybegood911 Johny be good (@Johnybegood911) reported

    @Foxtel Tell your commentators to stop calling the game as Collingwood supporters. I pay good money for this ****. #AFLPiesLions

  • michaelentwist Michael Entwistle (@michaelentwist) reported

    @mary_glass @Foxtel Did you get a fix? This issue has been around for more than a year. Foxtel were shifting people to a beta app which fixed it however the beta no longer works

  • saidwhat_now Say What Now? 🇦🇺 (@saidwhat_now) reported

    What is wrong with this stupid Foxtel Go app

  • Mike09127415 Lloyd Duff (@Mike09127415) reported

    @8biteric Because he better have the money to fix the damages. My grandmother paid 1000's to have that place built and not to have a polar bear throw a "I WANT FOXTEL" ACT.

  • FarCanall Far Canal (@FarCanall) reported

    @3AWisfootball Yep, we dont watch AFL anymore because we dont have Foxtel & we dont have Kayo. Subscription based watching of the AFL will actually eventually be the end of them. Support your supporter base or lose them. We’re in a recession ffs, not all of us are on six figure incomes

  • RGSchulzy16 Nathan Schulz (@RGSchulzy16) reported

    Sanders kicking the ball inside 50 and @FOXFOOTY show ******* replays. Or should I say Foxtel Football. Literal awful company #AFLDogsGiants

  • Seriously2022 Mick (@Seriously2022) reported

    @FOXFOOTY Seriously, what's with this ban on nicknames. Who makes such idiotic decisions? It's un Australian not use nick names. You know what, **** Foxtel and Fox footy, time to scrap my subscription.

  • TheRealPropMach PropMach (@TheRealPropMach) reported

    @RealMarkLatham They all flap their arms around like they are about to take of. Unfortunately they don't and are inflicted on poor Foxtel subscribers in what is meant to be news.

  • DannyB_4 Danny (@DannyB_4) reported

    @JohnnyAshler @Leo_Puglisi6 Wait till you find out Laura Kane doesn't work at Foxtel...

  • Mike09127415 Lloyd Duff (@Mike09127415) reported

    @DrPikachu69 @THEREALRTU @8biteric Remind me NEVER to put this guy in the 70's RTU "You know Foxtel is not on the TV when I really trash the place RWWWWWWWWWR SMASSSH" Eric "What ********? Me "Dad chucking a Foxtel mental. Lets get ******** out of here ASAP. YO DICKY your still a babe" tv thrown

  • HotVogue DANI (@HotVogue) reported

    @Foxtel it absolutely sucks that Foxtel is now American owned. Foxfooty and trying to stop comentators from calling each other by their nicknames. It's so un-Australian! This isn't America, and it's NOT AMERICAN FOOTBALL or American culture. Stupid ********!

  • mytweetsarehere 🪩 (@mytweetsarehere) reported

    @my3epaulets Binge and Kayo are the worst. @Foxtel needs to work on their apps for the prices they are charging for them. #Logies2025

  • PeteNelis Pete Nelis (@PeteNelis) reported

    Is there current issues with @Foxtel
