  Late to starting Dynamite because I had to install a new cable box (**** @Foxtel btw). But starting now so hopefully it’s a good show #AEWDynamite

  @RWBFooty Yes Channel 7 is ****, not everyone can afford Foxtel. 🤬

• 
  Mr_Ives (@Mr_Ives_) reported 9 minutes ago

  @BigOtrivia 100% footy is utter garbage viewing. Foxtel record it & fast-forward most of it. Gould offers absolutely zero. Ch7s new show is much better viewing. Don't get me started on the Hello Sport segment.

  @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.

  @Quartermain10 @7AFL Just as bad on @Foxtel / Kayo.

  Squiddy (@Aquae_Sq) reported 14 minutes ago

  @robb_j_m Making it useless and bad was the primary purpose of the 2013 Abbott government. Almost certainly at the behest of Murdoch, as it would hurt his Foxtel business.

  @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.

  @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

  @golfon5 @AFL It was fine on Ch7. Hust a foxtel issue.

• 
  George Munro (@ornums53) reported 24 minutes ago

  @1116sen Because Ch7 "Allegedly" have the footy rights but have 4 less games than Foxtel. No footy on Sat's poor elderly that AFL don't get any Sat footy anymore G but what would you blokes care. Broadcaters fault. And camera work is pathetic. Game is in chaos. Poor Laura took the hit.

  @RayJCapo79 @kayosports Reach that short arm into your deep pockets and come to the Foxtel side Pisano. Never seen a green circle in my life.

  Mike Oxbig (@Manbearpigzebra) reported 25 minutes ago

  Never thought i’d have a phone call with anyone as absolutely useless as @Foxtel All I wanted was a replacement box, it took 1 hour to reach that conclusion. They were supposed to call me back 3 days ago and never did, this was me calling them a second time. 1/2

  @PieNorthern @Foxtel The netball was on earlier… it was agonising watching it stop starting all game. I can’t even get social media on my phone because of the Wifi signal, it’s been getting worse every day at my house.

  Has @Foxtel been breaking down for everyone else or just me today?

  Jimmy (@JamesBa40189175) reported 28 minutes ago

  @ausbtcclub We get absolutely **** all for working hard here in Oz. I had job and separate business with mates. Struggled for 8 years and everyone made money from the business except us. Electricity, Gas, Foxtel, wages, rent, rates, tax, gst, employee super. @mrYodaJ @fiftyshadezof1

  @gimmieghostie foxtel not letting me down for once

  Tom Baker (@Duckimusprime) reported 35 minutes ago

  @Sam957063743921 @jamesxclean @jarrodwalsh That would've meant a lot, not Foxtel deciding to broadcast his emotional reaction. If you want to see how bad a call that is watch the Crows post of the moment, where they cut Jordan out.

• 
  Flinders Ranger (@FlindersRanger) reported 36 minutes ago

  thank goodness for @Foxtel and online services, because watching a local commercial TV “news” service (@9NewsAdel) that carries a football story as lead in the middle of a fuel crisis, is just not an option any more

  Dr G (@DrG2020V) reported 37 minutes ago

  @codenrl **** I feel sorry for people who don't have Foxtel and have to put up with retarded old **** head every week!

• 
  Joe Blow (@JoeBlowthoughts) reported 37 minutes ago

  @a_eugol @DanGinnane is a moron. Why do you even listen to him? Doesn't even know the rules. Sucks up to everyone at Foxtel! Goodbyyyyeeeee

  @lui_zacher Lui pull the post down. It was a Foxtel error not a game day clock. ****

  Jake McCormack (@jakeemccormack) reported 40 minutes ago

  @kayosports @Foxtel tv director has to lose his job after this performance. This might be the worst major sporting event coverage I’ve ever seen #AFLDonsPies

  Did Foxtel just **** itself?

  Andrew (@amea05) reported 44 minutes ago

  @Foxtel wtf is going on... Ads in the middle of the Hawks GCS game and now no vision?

• 
  Voicey (@Dubhgall90) reported 44 minutes ago

  @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?

• 
  Jan (@bimmyjartel) reported 52 minutes ago

  @H_the_Strange @FOXTEL_Help I'm going to go through what we've got and cut it back to the basic. Maybe even get rid of it for the summer and come back as a new customer in March. They offer new customers cheap packages. But don't give that offer to existing ones. As you say, they don't care.

  bndt (@banditkayfabe) reported 54 minutes ago

  @c0op111 I just don’t want channels though I am using Kayo a streaming service. If I wanted Foxtel Now I would’ve gotten that. I just don’t understand because all they have to do is flick a switch. Doesn’t cost them anything

  Judy Bourke (@judithbourke) reported 55 minutes ago

  @benonwine I agree it’s bloody awful got Foxtel and your paying for repeats Sports channel maybe different

  Liz 🐨🦈 (@clarkshollanov) reported 57 minutes ago

  Great now I have to pay for Foxtel again. This **** ain’t cheap.

  Ashley Warren (@Peanut87Butter) reported 59 minutes ago

  @Foxtel shitting the bed with the #Anzacday Bombers vs Collingwood game with no game sound. And people pay for this ****. Disgraceful
