Watching Freo in Canberra...

[stormee]

Hey lads

I've just moved to canberra to do a masters at ANU - I know the ACT in General is not a footy mad state, but can any of you who have lived here possibly fill me in on whether there are any good pubs around where I could watch freo play on a regular basis?

If worst comes to worst I might have to get fox footy but that's going to stretch the budget, would rather just head to a good pub.

Any suggestions or am I out of luck?

Mate I live in Sydney and the AFL app was the best $80 I ever spent last year !! You can watch every game live and re watch any game whenever you want. I also have Apple TV so I just used to watch them on the TV and was just like having Fox. As long as you have wifi at home that would be the way to go.

Sweet that actually sounds perfect. So you get Apple TV, put the app on that and watch it through there?

What about the Nab cup? Afl.tv as well?

No. Or at least it didn't last season.

Damn. Any way to watch internationally?

Well Apple TV works from an IPhone or iPad and wirelessly puts it on the TV. It's worked great for me

Yep. You click "match centre" for any game then you can watch it live. As long as you are paid up of course

There are streams available to watch all sorts of sports

The AFL app this year says Aust/NZ only. So I think it will work in NZ. Don't forget there is a game there and they are trying to break into that market

Good pick up. But we all know that NZ is really just another state of Australia nowadays anyway.

stormee they're only updates for tomorrow nights match, but I suppose it's better than nothing. Although, I see it being rubbish.

This is how you watch Freo in Canberra.



I swear I've never been to a colder place.

Buying the app for $80 sounds good.
Then just set up a VPN to trick the APP that you are in Australia.

I used a VPN (I think I used Astrill) in Hong Kong to watch Champions League on the Foxtel app last yr on IPad.

Hey Stormee, i live in Canberra and what FreoFalcon says is definitely on the mark, bloody cold in winter.

On the south side the Eastlake Football Club has a licensed club in Kingston with plenty of beers on tap, a decent bistro and generally shows the AFL games on the big screen. I believe they have premises in Kaleen as well which may offer a similar experience.

Out of interest what is the quality of the video like?

I'm looking to get rid of Foxtel, but I can't really stand subpar streams.

It is straight from fox. Obviously you have to have an ok internet connection. But I watch them on the road too and it's pretty good. Put it this way I have re subscribed for this year I would not have if it was crap

Just wondering - if you watch on the iPad does it allow you to connect to HDMI?

The Foxtel Go app doesn't allow that (for obvious reasons), but I can't see why the AFL one wouldn't.

Cant see why not but can't confirm

I live in Japan and yes, you can watch.
They don't have an app for iPad yet although they have promised one. (Is available for android. I imagine it doesn't comply with the App Store) But you can get the stream live through their website.

I just air played it from my ipad to my Apple TV. Or hdmi does the trick, too.
Also, all nab cup games are free to view. Just need to sign up. From the season proper, you can pay weekly, monthly or a full season subscription

Ps. Am I allowed to post that link? If not I can remove it
