Australia Network is a compilation of all the Australian Networks, with the ABC being the Main Source, so i think the AFL & NRL coverage is safe overseas. It may be a requirement by law-as a service to ex pats. I will ask when i get back home next month.

I think both footy and league are safe as long as they don't kick themselves out of the park, by asking too much money.

There are several pubs downtown and in places like Phuket & Pattaya where they show both codes to pull in the punters.

We have a dish, but it is also on several cable operators.

As long as I see the important matches I'm happy.

Today was one of those...so I'm not!!

But the signs are there now!!

Go Dees!!

I do live overseas. I work in the music biz too - used to be called the "record" biz - so I know what you mean and agree entirely.

Their small minded attitude will open up opportunities for others - eventually.

I wouldn't even mind paying for LIVE streaming - well at least a realistic fee - not this whimpy replay for a stupid price and days after the event.

I do know of another website that finds p2p streams for free but this site would not let me post it..... :)

I hear what you are saying.I am in Chiang Mai and you used to be able to stream the game through Justin tv, us stream etc but the Thai authorities have even closed them.

I have it on good authority that Austnetwork will not be showing Rugby union or league next year and there will be a glut of AFL.

Whilst I am sure there are many P2P sites where games can be viewed, that doesn't really help the club, or expansion of the game internationally via legitimate sources. Being in the recorded music biz most of my working life, I know the legitimacy & piracy issues very well.

But this thread is about today's game and our fantastic win - could have been better if they hadn't "eased off" in the last 15 minutes...but much better than "easing in to the game", eh ?

Perhaps we should start a thread about the international media coverage, but then again, who'd be interested, except us overseas Demon fans ?

I hope you're right that we will get a "glut" of AFL.

It would be good to have all the other programs like the Footy Show and some of the Pay TV stuff too.

But when you say you have it on "good authority", you make it sound awfully like one of those very frequent Thai Rumors...haha or as we say here 555!

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag
