Roast No replay on Fox!!

[OldCrowBloke]

Just checked the Sports channels for the week:

• Collingwood / Essendon 4 or 5 replays
• Saints / Freo at least 3 replays
• Geelong / Melbourne - 3 replays
• etc, etc

BUT NO REPLAY OF THE SHOWDOWN

It was on live. You should have taped it!

It's a funny superstition we have in our house - Crows never seemed to win when we taped the live game!! (Although this year hasn't made much difference )

Never known there to be no replays at all....

 

[RichardMarx]

Watch it online - it'll be up in a day or so.

 

[JP Sauce]

Hmm, that's annoying. I forgot to IQ this one.

I always iq it and either delete if we lose or keep if we win. I've deleted alot this year.

 

[afc1991]

Noticed that too, wtf!

Also suffer from the IQ superstition.

Stems way back to our VHS days - even my mates wouldn't let me tape a game live!!

 

[Hank93]

Considering Saints v Freo hasn't happened yet, that may be the Adel v Port game. I thought they always show a replay of every game.

 

[King Elvis]

I thought so too.

If they don't, download it from the AFL website guys, not idea, but better than nothing.

 

[JP Sauce]

Yeah it must be that "Saints v Dockers" game, surely?

 

[Stinger...]

Yeah it must be that "Saints v Dockers" game, surely?

When is that supposed Saints/Dockers game on?

I thought they always replayed the games on Tuesdays?

 

[Cap]

so is there anywhere a fella could get a erm copy of the game...............

 

[footy4ever]

It'll come up on the afl site soon. I watch all winning replays there. Just watched the last qtr. - the other 3 qtrs will be there eventually.

Check the port board, probably a few copies over there they don't want.

Is there a direct link to download them?

 

[Cath73]

Just checked the fox menu again and the replay is on Wednesday 1pm on Fox Sports 1.

 

[footy4ever]

Am watching whole match now.

Here is the address.

You can change the quality(resolution I guess) but even medium quality is ok when you go to fullscreen.

 

[Gets!]

Nice one, cheers.

Thanks Cath! Here in ACT it will be 1.30pm.

My other half wrote a scathing email to Fox - perhaps they actually listened!!


PS - looks better on the plasma than the laptop!

PPS - this is the text

Wondering why there is NO replay of the Showdown yet the Collingwood/Essendon game is being replayed 4 or 5 times this week? If this is an oversight, could it please be corrected? Or is this related to Brian Taylor's hatred of all things to do with Adelaide? Our family is most concerned that this ignorant buffoon will be the main face of AFL Footy on Foxsports next year. In this is the case we may consider ending our ten year subscription to Foxtel.

To add to this roast, increasingly I am seeing fox sports commentators bag Adelaide as a city. This has been common place on free to air footy shows over the years and most South Australians just let it go, don't really give a shit, on PAY tv its a bit harder to take. In the past fox footy and fox sports have always been non Victorian friendly, I take it this was the case as it is PAY tv, not really good for business to denergrade a whole city you want to be subscribing to your service. I imagine it would be a real kick in the balls for South Australians who pay to watch these shows when they are watching them hang shit on Adelaide, thinking the whole time, 'i'm paying to watch this?'

Foxtel IQ2 is your friend.

Good points. Although I now live away from Adelaide for work, I grew up there, my wife grew up there, our kids grew up there, we have family and friends who live there. It p******s us off with the mindless Adelaide bashing that we get force-fed. It was bad enough when Sam Newman started it to promote his own ego, but now flogs like BT are getting involved. Even on "360" tonight, we had to listen to Robbo downgrade Adelaide as a place to live.

Come on Fox!! Make sure you are serving ALL of your paying customers.

 

[Peter Doherty]

Even Gerald Wheatley was in on the act on 360 last week with veiled comments, which surprised me.

BTW, what email address did you send that email to?
