    Oh well. I will just have to spend the rest of the afternoon watching old eps on youtube trying to remember.

    I've got a feeling that might have been Ian Robertson.

    Re: Watching the Footy on TV

    Did anyone else take up $200 per year kayo offer to dogs (& presumably all AFL team) members? I signed up today and because I had already subscribed for a month or two last year I had to let them know to have option if putting in discount code.

    Interestingly they did not email me they they had done anything but when l logged into kayo later on there was new option of $200 per year discount button and when I clicked on that I was able to enter discount code emailed/sent to me In original offer.

    Anyway-I find kayo quite good and at $17 a month considering current exclusion of fans attending plus ability to watch replays (fingers crossed we do well this year!!) it should be worth it.

    Unless you are watching a Ch7 game on Foxtel Channel.

    PS: What are you watching Kayo through? Apple TV or app on your TV, or some other way?

    Re: Watching the Footy on TV

    I-pad or I phone-these are 2 devices I have kayo app on. I understand I could mirror to TV but we do not have the ability to do that plus have heard folks have had problems with quality of image doing that. With high quality headphones I-pad is AOK. Mobile phone image quality and size is ok too if only 1 person on each device (as only a household of two no need for a bigger screen).

    I do not normally watch enough non free to air sport to justify Fox sports. However enjoyed watching end of Roos beating plastics this arvo though!!

    I usually use the Kayo app on my Apple Tv upstairs, but I have recently started pushing games from the Kayo app on my phone/ipad to my Chromecast connected to the downstairs tv and it works perfectly. I think the HD Chromecast sets you back around the $40 mark.

    +1 to the chrome cast. I use it exclusively on a few sets and Kayo or Foxtel GO stream well and in 1080p (HD).

    Thx Grantysghost. Sounds like chrome cast is worth it.

    We recently fitted out a home theatre room in our house. This was the first opportunity I had to watch the boys live on the big screen in surround sound - such a shame it turned into large and loud assault on my senses!
