I'm flying to NYC tomorrow for two weeks and fear that I won't be able to watch the Queen's Birthday game live.

I would really appreciate any guidance as to how I might be able to watch it on my iPad - preferably live, although, if not, without the website giving the final score next to the replay.

I have Foxtel and pretty we'll every product/gimmick offered by Telstra, although, given that I reside in Sydney, I am not an international subscriber.

I'd be grateful for any advice as to what I should do to set up my iPad to watch the game live.

Thanks in advance.

PS. Canning the holiday is not without merit, but that would be tantamount to canning my marriage.

    I use Foxtel Go when overseas. Watched the Melbourne-Adelaide game last August while in Germany. You have to hook up your Foxtel account to do this,I think it's a matter of creating an online account using your account details (like account number, name, address, all that jazz). I registered ages ago so can't quite remember the process. You might be best served to just download the FOXTEL Go app for your iPad now, and try and organise it before you leave.

    Although, some members hear have reported that it doesn't work for them overseas. It worked fine while I was in Germany, and I plan to watch the QB game while in LA on Foxtel Go on my iPad.

    Give it a go. Let us know how you go!

    I use it for every game and very rarely have a problem.

    A weekly subscription is only $15USD

    Same here. Be aware they have an App for iPad etc. - have found the App more reliable (connection-wise) than watching via a browser on the Web.

    Watch AFL Global Pass in the iTunes store.

    There may be other alternatives. Apparently. Not that I've ever resorted to them myself of course, cough cough.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
