  @cmkusher @NRL @kayosports Foxtel has some good deals now, I am going to flick it and go with them, the recent updated app brought in a whole new realm of issues for me. Enough is enough.

  @Tuxy81 @Raiders_24Sep89 You’re both kinda correct - if no FTA network bids, then the rights can go exclusively to Pay TV - but in this instance we know a FTA network has made a bid, so Foxtel/DAZN are compelled to find a FTA partner

  @thedannorris @hawthornzone @kayosports Can always pay twice as much and buy a Foxtel subscription. But just a warning. You’ll get the same service.

  Is there a worse company to deal with than @ Foxtel absolutely **** service

  @centralNRL Watching the games on the Ch9 1080i broadcast is horrible viewing vs Foxtel true HD and 4k. It just can’t be awarded back to @NRLonNine on this basis alone, with their complete disregard for the @NRL fans viewing experience. Commentary is fine, but low res is just rubbish

  @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.

  @Foxtel day off 3 games of NBA and you pick the worst game to show.

  @realRick_AUS @LeagueScenePod Foxtel had him effectively sacked the week before too. I suppose they couldn't find a replacement. Dean Young will coach. Idk what the hold up is. They're a **** team. He should've gone after last season. Still not as bad a coach as voss and bead Scott tho

  @simmos83 @jarrodwalsh Criticising ****** behaviour from Foxtel? And you want to try and pull out club v club ****? The fans of the Hard-done-bys are a ******* weird lot.

  @GusLefty @BenFordhamLive Yeh but we have a choice whether we pay for Foxtel but no choice whether we pay for your ABC! Some people are slow thinkers.

  Micheal Elliott (@MickElliott11) reported 29 minutes ago

  @CamMagicMan Would def cancel foxtel & get kayo only ( if they get partial only)

• 
  Joshua (@shiggy74) reported 32 minutes ago

  Why the hell are Foxtel waisting Jess Webster on a VFL game? She is better than the majority of commentators on any network.

  @Xenosmilus4 @MisanthropeGirl Presumably you can stream to a Sky box as well as get satellite, but can you get it to use only as a streaming set top box? The equivalent here, Foxtel, just has an app for people who don’t want the satellite service, which means using a Firestick, Apple TV or the like.

  @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

  Jalin Cedar (@JalinCedar) reported 43 minutes ago

  @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?

  Adrian Sal (@adriansal80) reported 45 minutes ago

  @SC___Scout Have never and will never get kayo. I've had Foxtel since day one. Never one issue.

  Trent Steel (@TAStanton2323) reported 45 minutes ago

  @lauren_vasiliou Have dealt with them a lot, one thing that’s scary is they have no fear, not of police, not scared of consequences. Because the worst they get is Aussie jail for a bit, and that’s 3 hot meals a day, gym and Foxtel.

  @AFL @SuperCoachAFL @Foxtel Ffs Foxtel, we customers pay big $$$$ for your service - your efforts for the massive Anzac Day match between the Pies & Bombers was absolutely PUTRID Lift your fk’n game you 🥔‘s

  @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

  @FIAWEC @beINSPORTSASIA thatd be right Foxtel ditched its BEIN sports channel partnership a few years back now i gotta shell out for them on top of everything life sucks being a poor schmuck on DSP😕

  @NetballAust Well done to Netball Australia for a historic TV Rights Deal with the Nine Network for the next Five years and taking it off Foxtel.

  @Ausbobsmit Knifing Tony Baloney was a fine public service. You forget Tony brought us world slowest copper wire internet to save Rupert Murdoch’s satellite Foxtel crap from being dumped in the bin. The man in the photo had to sell the dog to us. Not me - I was one of first fibre connected.

  @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

• 
  Brett Cox (@b_dog_78) reported 58 minutes ago

  @NicNegrepontis Foxtel is borderline unwatchable. Signal dropping in and out. There is no rain and not a breath of wind outside, so the “poor weather” excuse is not valid. Just a poor service all round.
