    @PollyPorridge My town didn’t have channel ten until I was like 12? Or maybe later so if you didn’t have Foxtel you never saw it, and when I visited my aunty in Adelaide it was banned so it was a double whammy

    @Ryandally08 Tony Abbott was made leader by his old mate Rupert Murdoch in order to put a very slow third rate internet system into Australia so it would not render his Foxtel by satellite service as being useless. Rupert has since sold Foxtel.

    @puntingbattler @WSWanderingEels It’s near useless data imo. It doesn’t include Foxtel. It may be the same for Ch9 and the NRL but the Ch7 AFL commentary is garbage. No one that has the choice would be choosing that and the ads after goals

    @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.

    @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.

    @PhilGould15 Sir, could we please look at starting our own channel to watch just our own games? I'm tired of giving those sour ***** at Fox my money. After listening to Voss and whatever the other has been's name is, I'm ready to cancel Foxtel after 20 yrs.

    @andrew_whelan The problem is, it still just uses the same linear channel feeds from Foxtel.

    @Markedw For the SBS to outbid the likes of foxtel or Amazon . If a publicly funded network can outbid paid services.. maybe it should be looked at

    @lui_zacher The foxtel clock froze. The actual time clock was still counting down. So in the end it was explained last night of the coverage & no time was lost.

    @Pivotonian1838 @10 @FOXFOOTY Ditto. Foxtel is becoming quite dear. We'll hang onto it because of the footy but they don't reward you for being loyal.

    @simonhill1894 @AnthonyPHoran @Gatty54 Paramount Plus have been pretty good for the A-League... with the exception of not being in pubs (which continues to be a massive problem). I did some analysis the other day and P+ have more subscribers now than Foxtel had when the A-League had its TV audience peak in 2012-13

    @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.

    @Cryptozoologis7 @SCWhisperer Slater and Smith are as bad as the two you mentioned. Thank goodness for Foxtel. Channel 9 suck!

    @dunek4ck @Foxtel Seems by providing a really **** service they are pushing people onto Kayo... why the hell am I watching nascar while F1 should be playing!!! @foxtel are providing a substandard service onpurpose

    How the hell does #KenHinckley GetARoleCommentatingOnTheShowdown ? He would have to go down as the worst coach in history for a side. Why @FoxSportts @Foxtel making us listen to the worst coach in AFL history ? He’s rich $ stop paying irrelevant conversation !! #AFL #crows port

    @NadiaWa35758056 Remembering at the time Murdoch Foxtel was a satellite 'service'. Murdoch did not want a good high speed internet as it would 'damage' his Foxtel

    @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

  • mcnamara_team
    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.

    Don't pay for any applications or subscriptions. Cancel netflix foxtel etc all streaming platforms we own the phone companies. Delete bank account & open a new one. Information will be readily available at the touch of a finger. You can i read any encyclopaedia or text book Free.

    @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?

    I misspoke, the Foxtel go app is just as bad as kayo.

    @mickgleeson Kayo is terrible, but oddly enough Foxtel Go never drops out, despite being the same feed from the same company.

    @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
