SOS to any fellow demon travellers.

I'm in Singapore and very keen to watch the game (5 of us)

Can anyone shed some light on watching the game - by TV, cable, Internet?

I think normally it would be on the Australian Network but as its a public holiday in Melb but not here, it doesn't seem to be televised.

Thanks in advance

    I know you can watch on http://www.afl.livesport.tv but it involves paying a fee of about $100 for the season membership. I'm not sure whether you can get a deal for just one game or not.

    Thanks GTG, just tried to subscribe (it's $7 for 7 days) so would have been perfect but you need Adobe flash player which this 'device doesn't support' (IPad 1)

    Other ideas / modifications gratefully appreciated

    Should be able to get the Australia channel in Singapore. Find an Aussie bar, hotel, guesthouse, backpackers, whatever with decent television and they'll show it on that, should be a breeze over there. Rock up at the airport if you have to.

    Australia Network available in a lot of hotels or bars shows the football.

    Yep - get Australian Network but it's not a public holiday here so there's normal daytime SHYTE (and I mean SHYTE)

    This is a website which I use to watch the Premier League and other such sports. Works for footy too. May encounter slight delay in audio, but still its better than nothing.

    Good luck with finding a bar too watch the game. If not this link should serve you well.

    Just finished up there a week ago and thought I'd get a little Southeast Asia r & r on my way home.

    Looking forward to watching the resurgent Dees live in the second half of the season!

    Thanks all. ended up going to the Boomerang Bar to see it on the big screen ( thanks 3Jacks).

    Interestingly, Melb supporters outnumbered Filth supporters, but then again, I don't think you can get into Singapore with a criminal record.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
