Foxtel Telecasts

Can anyone tell me why for the last two matches at least Foxtel do not have a time clock or even show the scores until after a goal is scored? Does my set simply need adjusting? Also their different camera angles is so confusing and at times it looks like one team or the other is kicking to the wrong end. Has anyone else experienced these problems? Help please.

Do you have an old-fashioned TV or a flat-screen TV with the wider screen? Does the picture look all out of proportion (all the players really short and fat)?

It's a new wide screen TV.(Flat screen). Players seem to have normal appearance.

Can you see the Fox Sports watermark on the top right hand side of the screen? If not, or if half of it is cut off, I'm thinking that your actual television might have a zoom function that you might have accidentally pressed on your TV's remote. It's hard to diagnose without actually seeing it, and in any case, it may have been something with the actual broadcast while you were watching it. Maybe you could check out a different game during today or tomorrow's replays and see if there is still a problem. If there is, then I think that what I just mentioned might be true.

Many thanks mate for your helpfulness. I get a full picture with Ch 7 and 10. But not Foxtel. BTW I am assuming that they do show the time clock and current scores? Once again your input is much appreciated. Cheers.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
