bdenner Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 There's just no pleasing some people, especially one eyed Magpie supporters! Keep up the good work Australia Network, no complaints from me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moetownblues Posted April 30, 2010 Share Posted April 30, 2010 Moved to Pub forum. It is maybe because in Australia you get saturated with everything collingwood and that is why we left. Over here you do not hear collingwood this and collingwood that. As a Saints man I would rather watch freo/west coast than a game involving collingwood. p.s there is an Aust Rules topic running.

kabal1234 Posted April 30, 2010 Author Share Posted April 30, 2010 yeah nah, i'm not saying collingwood should be shown specifically, i'm saying the best match of the day/round should be shown. wce have 1 win for the season in 13 spot. carl and coll should be a cracking game.... both in form.

moetownblues Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Hope they didn't ignore an NRL game just to show that crap! NRL a minor code does not even have a big following in Australia and only played in two areas. Afl is the National game and played right across the country.

Will27 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 The only game you're guaranteed to get is the Friday night one. The other's seem to be a bit of a lottery. I don't know how they program, I think a lot has to do with the different times in differents states though. For me, I'm just grateful we get any games at all. BTW, I'm an Eagles supporter and wish we were getting another game as I'm not looking forward to the pain Regards Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triplegee Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 BTW, I'm an Eagles supporter and wish we were gettinganother game as I'm not looking forward to the pain You might just enjoy this one Will - I have a feeling the Eags will be up for this one! BTW - I am a WC supporter too. Back on topic - just be thankful you can get Australia Network - I've just moved to a new place and there's no clear line to the required satellite! And none of the cable companies are here yet (Kallaprapreuk Road). Doh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As my local Dynasat man informed me The Australian network is the most expensive channel they provide it costs them huge money for the rights, that is why it costs me 16,000 baht per year and they give me the BBC for free. PAS 8 is the only satelitte channel I get that's the BBC and Australian network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be free if you subscribe through a broadcaster I have it set up and there are no ongoing fees. Regards Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boksida Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 Australia Network is a free to air service and, on request, they will courier you at no cost a Smart Card to enable the encrypted Rugby broadcasts to be watched. The catch is that many brands of decoders are unable to read it. They will also supply this card to cable providers. True Visions could supply this channel at no cost to themselves (apart from a decoder) but told me "there is no interest". ESPN are also now showing a delayed broadcast of a complete AFL game each week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murrinman Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 great broadcast who realy cares about the pies and the bluebaggers the real deal the mighty dockersgreat game pumping westcoast again 7 times in a row Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkinbkk Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Its funded by the Australian government and is free to all. No one has any interest in getting it from True because they're all getting it through other means! Its in every hotel in Thailand <deleted>..... Beware if you're a rugby fan and paying the 16k to get a box to watch rugby next year as the rights have all gone to Setanta for Asia who are 'looking for a broadcast partner'....... which also explains why Australia Network have been ramping up the coverage of Australia's most watched sport (NRL) ...haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
