Are you sensing a thread trend at the moment?
Can't watch the AFL in China - desperate enough to go to Hong Kong - any suggestions on the best place to watch it?
Anybody?

I do! Do we need a mega thread for this topic?

I'm feeling it though! I'm asking the same thing on the central coast of Qld.
I'll be watching it with a bunch of uneducated rugby leaguers I think. They think i'm a nutter. They're just ignorant.
Them: HuhHuh don't you watch GayFL??? HuhHuh!!
Me: GayFL? Aren't you the crew sticking your fingers up each others arse!
I'd be more open to rubgy league if it weren't for the AFL vitriol I think.
 
My old man has just flown over to China and was there this time last year on business - had to watch the Preliminary Final and the first GF at a pub. Not sure what it's called but it was definitely in China.

I'll text him now and find out, maybe you can share a beer with him as he'll be there on his own no doubt. :D

Be patient, Quicky, life is hard enough for them. :D

Good on ya, Pera.
Any help much appreciated.
Go Pies!
 
Can't stream?

I did that in Vietnam, when I was last in China the season wasn't in full swing, so no idea there :(

I'd imagine it'd be on somewhere if you're in a major city though.

Kangaroo Bar, Kowloon.
A few of the Hotels have the Australian Network Channel which should have live coverage.
 
The Jockey Public House in Happy Valley is a good option.

AFL games shown live.

Thanks, Pendles, but to my utter frustration, I can't get my passport back today to go, so if for no other reason, barrack hard so we go over the line and I can go to HK next week.

Smiling at my colleagues, while secretly having murderous thoughts...
 
Kila or Coast in Soho should show it.

But instead of Hong Kong, you should go to Macau and sit in the sports bar at one of the casinos. Although Hong Kong is pretty awesome...

Thanks fellas - bloody happy to have the chance to go see it next week.
Think Macao is a good idea after all.

I just couldn't stand to get internet updates for this one - I went drinking with a pretty Spanish girl and tried to forget about it [she's very pretty].

Can I just add why I love it so much:

The game remains a great one because there is nowhere to hide at the MCG when two teams are both up for it like that and the crowd roar is like that.

Players with strong minds claim what reputation they want to take for themselves - some rise, some don't; some get a chance to redeem themselves for past struggles; some are left with questions to answer, but it's always 'take no prisoners' and it's a very pure contest.

Is it life and death? No, but it;s like life in a way.

I just love it - just as much now as ever - like I was out there myself.

It's in my bones.
