Overseas Dees - How are you watching the finals?

For our overseas supporters or those travelling, how do you plan on watching the final?

This thread can be a place to post looking for others to watch the game with, no matter where in the world you are!

 

To kick it off I'll be in Berlin for work, with a conveniently scheduled late flight, meaning I'll be free to watch the game during the day (1250pm local time).

Will any locally based supporters be meeting anywhere to watch it together? Or does anyone know any Berlin AFL haunts that show games so I'm not watching on my laptop in the hotel lobby?

    I’ll still be in Europe as well, but I believe the game starts at 11.50am local/Euro time, not 12.50pm - wouldn’t want you to miss the first half!

    You could try a regular Aussie hangout Belushi's on Rosa Luxemburg Strabe, but there's no guarantee they'll have the game on. You could ring beforehand. 

    Otherwise there are a heap of illegal streams that are very reliable. Send me a message and I can provide the best ones...

    San Francisco Bay Area over here. 

    I'll watch it on the WatchAFL app and cast it to my TV - night games on the Australian East Coast mean 02:00 start times in California

    Like @Hatchman, I use the Watch AFL app.  Specifically the version available on an Apple TV.  Works very well. 

    You receive a subscription with the international MFC membership, which is about the same price as a yearly subscription with watchafl.com.  But you get to support the club for the same price (I assume they get a discount on the subscription price).  You can also buy short-term weekly and final series packages subscriptions on the watchafl website.

    We had a thread on this late last year if you're looking for more info: 

    P.S. I'll be watching from Nairobi on the odd chance there are any Dees fans here. We usually host a small GF party but currently only know of Hawks and North supporters.

    Absolutely correct sorry. I'm currently in Parnu, Estonia, and forgot I'm an hour behind!

    Am in Helsinki for 1st Final, fast streaming net and mad sports friends, Sudan for the Grand Final sadly, will use a diplomat mates house for the fast net there.

    Watch AFL is ok, sometime the sound doesn’t run the same as the picture which can be frustrating.

    I watched Collingwood in Lagos (Portugal), Carlton in Agadir (Morocco) until I literally had to leave four minutes before the end to get a 1pm pre-arranged taxi to the airport (where I was reconciling myself with a loss) and Brisbane in London, all through the Watch AFL app. Fortunately (from a watching perspective, not a lifestyle one), I’ll be back in Melbourne for the Sydney final.

    Flying to Hawaii the Friday night before the GF if we’re in it I’m thinking https://www.watchafl.com.au on iPad will have to be the go if there isn’t some sports Chanel taking the feed .  On at 6pm Hawaii time - be watching from my hotel room.  Maybe cast to tv.

    If you are in Thailand, ABC Overseas show all AFL games on FTA if your lodgings can pick up that channel.

    If in Pattaya, go to Tree Town area and Danny's Sports Bar. Plenty of big screens with cold beer and Danny is a good bloke.

    I learned a lesson in 2017 not to book overseas holidays in September (unluckily it wasn't catastrophic).

    For those of us in the UK it's either Watch AFL or the BT sports channel. There will be plenty of pubs in the cities who will screen it for the games that are on during opening hours. Early kick offs Australian time will be problematic.

    I live in the countryside so I'll be watching from behind the sofa at home until we get ten goals in front.

    Watching from the Japans using the WatchAFL app. I hook the PC up to the telly and it's no different from back in Oz.

    I'd get Kayo but the app can detect VPNs apparently. Any Kayo users on here based OS? I'd also like to watch the NRL finals too.

    I'm in Berlin too. I use the watchafl app (I share the costs with a pal in London and never been a problem watching concurrently).

    Would be up for a meetup though, let us know if something pans out.

    I'll be watching, like I always do, with my father in Hamburg on the watchafl.com website cast onto the Tv from my Laptop. Watched the grand final with one of my German mates last year and he loved it!

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
