    Re: Free Afl Live pass for telstra post paid phone subscribers

    Not sure if anyone else has stumbled across this, but one of my Pups has discovered a way to stream AFL Live to the TV.

    We had previously tried to do this with little success, by fluke me Pup was streaming music through Apple TV and swapped over to the AFL live App mid song and it played on the tv.
    We have now done it for heaps of games this season and it works a treat.

    I can see them online for about $80 from a few retailers. Does anyone know if Chrome Cast works?

    I find all of these solutions pretty much unwatchable.

    I gave up on crappy internet streams a while ago for the same reason.

    Even foxtel go from PC to TV is very average quality when watching sport.

    I have been very impressed with Foxtel Play on a Telstra TV media player - HD resolution and no issues with buffering.

    Cost is Telstra TV - $109. Foxtel Play $29 for sports channel, but you need to add one other pack - minimum $10. That will however give you all the Sports channels, plus the pack you choose.

    I understand, Foxtel Play on other devices is not in HD.

    For the past few years have watched AFL Live via an iPad for the increased viewing size rather than trying to make out what's going on via a smartphone.

    This season they (AFL/Telstra) seem to have limited the size of the picture to something like the maximum smartphone size i.e
    can no longer fill the screen size of an iPad. Bit of a shame as my eyesight is not as good as it once was.

    Yeah but you can get Foxtel with sport from Telstra for $40 a month (this was $35 when i looked 3 months back)

    Fair enough. The only thing with the solution above is there are no contracts so you can pull out any time.

    I am renting for 12 months till new place is built and unfortunately can't get the full Foxtel. (F$%King landlords)
