AFL Live 2015

[sue 9,145]

If you used AFL Live last year and used Airplay to view the match of your TV, watch out.

Without warning in the update to the app they have changed the terms and conditions so that you can't do that anymore. It sort of works, but a lot of the screen is covered by a gray band and some say audio doesn't work. Check out the comments in the iTunes store. There are a lot of angry customers who paid $89 assuming what worked last year would work this year.

Presumably they have done this to protect their other investment, Foxtel.

Several bugs introduced as well, but I guess they will fix those because there is no marketing reason not to.

Prlcks. As if they aren't making enough money already.

If l can't watch the Dees live, then there is no better option than the big screen at the local pub with a counter, a bottle or two of red and a group of Demon mates. I cannot seethe attraction of subscribing to Foxtel when the local pub is happy to pay.

Whilst 90 dollars a season for just AFL is a better investment the $50 a month for foxtel is at least now somewhat reasonably priced. By the time you've brought the counter meal, bottle of red etc you've spent most of the $50. Now you have to get value for the rest of the year as well so it helps if you like the international cricket, NFL/baseball/NBA and A league they show but it's at least not a horrendous rip off any longer. On the couch and AFL 360 are pretty nice as well, but I'd put the value of them at about 5-10 dollars a month really max.

start an afl fantasy classic league, fill it by march 2, win an afl live pass for the year. [censored] easy with so many celebs available to add to your league.

site has been rock solid so far, app the same, and the new match centre feature is unreal. it depresses me to see petracca and alex neal-bullen atop the 'u18s stats' in the stats centre (i have fantasy coach, hence i can see it).

In my case, I will buy a meal and a bottle of red at the "G" so same cost just different venue/ Also at the pub I don't have to listen to commentary as they generally have League on another screen so have the sound off.

In 2012 I got the $50 spots Foxtel package, it was pretty good but after 12 month they wanted me to start paying full price for the sports channels so I cancelled it and got afl live for my iPad and iPhone.

Best $90 any afl lover can spend!! every game live and replyed by demand, even if its on a small screen I still get to watch the action.

Get Apple TV and stream it from your iPad to your tv.

There are other ways to do it with cables but Apple TV is wireless and simple.

I haven't had any problems.

Just update the software on your tv as well.

I do apologise for not reading the OP in it's entirety. What would I do without you Sue?

ET old chum, I wasn't asking for an apology, just wondering if you had read it. Remember my ? and that read and read mean slightly different things depending on how you pronounce them....

I'm pretty sure I have the latest software updates.

So are you getting it to work using AppleTV with airplay? Doesn't seem possible according to Telstra, nor the many complaints in the iTunes reviews:

The Ts and Cs do not permit AirPlay:

http://www.afl.com.au/livepass/telstra-terms-and-conditions

"Airplay: Airplay Mirroring and any form of external video output of streamed content is not permitted and is not provided as part of any AFL Live Pass.

"Telstra’s agreement with the AFL restricts the display of live match videos to the current screen size. Match highlights and match replays are available for viewing in full screen size."
