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!

Hi Deanox, in Berlin as well, will know more on Thursday. let you know.

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.

Same here!


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.

I’ll be in Bali and will miss the game live ( by a day) and yes, thank goodness for the ABC coverage

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!

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
