im thinking of getting foxtel this year so that i can watch MotoGP and World Superbikes.

what channel/s do they show them on?
Im hoping that this channel is in the basic package. ie the 36.95 per month package.

it sux to pay for TV but watching motoGP on channel 10 is heart breaking.
In a 24 or 26 lap race you miss atleast 8 laps cause they are showing advertisements.

Fox Sports 1,2 and now 3...

Or you're welcome to watch 'em at mine and have a few beers...

I will hire couch time at your place.

Payment will be made in Beer

when are you bringing elvis over to meet the slime (father inlaws name for my bike)

The fox sports channels are not on the basic package.
To get these it will cost about $52 a month I think..

typical that anything worth watching is not on the basic package.

that is going to be a bit harder to get by the boss. luckily for me she actually loves motorcycle racing - just hates being on them (with me).

mine's the other way around

Unfortunately to get the sports channel you need to purchase almost all of Foxtel, and after being stuck at home for over 9 weeks with nothing to do but watch friggen tellie, I honestly believe that FOXTEL is latin for "57 channels of shit"

Stompy take the beer option,

Shit we are paying $92.80 PM but have got just about everything to keep the whole family happy.... interesting note... we never watch free to air these days!

dave - mon is going to get real sick of seeing me every sunday evening.

oh well atleast you will be drunk... (so will i)

its a shame you cant just buy the channels you want. (in my case 3 channels....)

F**king foxtel thieving C**ts bugger shit bugger damn crap...

shame the WANKERS show the world super stock in January.. for rounds 1 or 2 from the year before...


Instead they pan off to a 1990's WSBK race rather than show the entie event... Utter load of crap.. I am rather pissed about it after seeing the super stock races 2 weekends ago... Kwaka on the podium in atleast 2 races...

We did it not long ago. You need to get basic plus sport which I think is about $60 .....BUT......when you sign up you get a free month with everything. You then discover that to get the Comedy channel you need the lifestyle package and to get Nickelodeon for the kids you need another package. Clever bastards. We ended up just getting the lot for $100.

I was always really anti Foxtel but now I wouldn't be without it. There is a lot of shit but theres also a lot of good stuff.

Thats true glen ... what happened to us is start on a small package then more chanels are released & you have to pay more to get them ... its a shame you cant pick chanels you want based on a set rate per chanel

Nah, I always had mates over in brissy to watch the racing...

Besides, if she's talking to you, I can watch the racing uninterupted...
