My sports bar in Hua Hin is proving a bust!

Is that watch afl app any good ? $20 for a week sub. Don't mind the fee but is it any good?

No others in the area BBO?

I was gonna PT it there but am now in the city, gonna catch a ride with a friend, meeting her at Parliament station. I’m with another friend whom I just ran into (Geelong supporter) and neither of us has been up the posh end of the city in decades. So we’re like MaryLou and Billy Bob Joe visiting the big smoke for the day. He’s had several ppl call out “go cats!” and “carna catters!!” etc. All’s I’ve got is a very distinguished elderly gentleman stepping out of the Yves St Laurent shop as we passed, and he says, “well, as long as it’s not a resounding defeat, I believe a loss this evening wouldn’t be the end of the world.” 😂

watchafl app worked well for me when I was OS - obviously better if you can screen mirror onto a decent TV rather than ipad or phone

    Oh no

    the watch afl app is ok. Resolution is 720p. You'll have to watch on phone or computer unless you can stream to your hotel TV.

    Remember to cancel your sub post game as I think it auto renews

    Good luck

    PS I know how you feel. My kayo sub used to work beautifully here in Asia but alas no more

    Do you use a VPN DJ ?

    Yeah Loges, 2 nearby but this is the biggest.

    A pre game summary was shown a few minutes ago, so maybe mamasan is correct and it will be on.

    The internet is good there so, if needs be, I'll watch it on Mac

    WatchAfl is good BBO, but don't wait until the last minute to do it, sometimes it takes awhile to get it to work.

    Come on Dees,   cream this top 2 pretender,

     

    then look forward to doing the same to the others thinking top 4 aspirants,    Port Ad, Freo, Carlton,  brisbane again, pies and dogs

    easy beats        perhaps  what an easy run home, we should be primed.

    Go Dees

    I really think we are auditioning the team for the big dance or even just the preludes,  Cannot think there will be many other changes come September

    We usually save our best for other contenders.  Here's hoping that continues tonight.

    There was a Deebrief podcast today with Stafford, he said the players love getting up for the "prize fights". 

    Been buzzing for the past two days waiting for this one, lets [censored] go!

    Think cats will always be the most satisfying team to beat, they are arrogant but it’s earned

    Stanley? Was rumoured earlier in the week.

    Not sure. They acted surprised when they reported.

    Not sure which bar you are at BBO, but I can almost guarantee El Murphys will be showing the game. Good grub too.

    Don't really understand the reason behind geo blocking. If you've paid the subscription you should be able to watch from anywhere.

    P.S. we should take out this gaggle of geriatrics tonight. Dees by a goal or 2

    I’ll be watching from tiny Saint Pompon in the Dordogne (France). It will be my last game while I’m in France. We fly out from Paris on Monday.

    We won the prelim by 83 points. Assuming cats don’t have the flu/gastro tonight, I will say they will show 2-3 goals improvement :-  So Dees by 65 points

    It's not kayo who insist upon it but rather it's the content owners who want to sell the same content in other markets.

    Mind you in the case of AFL the overseas revenue would be miniscule.

    For what it offers the WatchAFL service is very expensive

    If you're based overseas and want WatchAFL a great option is an international digital membership from the club. About $180 I think. Includes WatchAFL and supports the club. Win/Win.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
