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: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
