After just recently moving to the Caribbean ( ;D) I was just curious on which website i could watch the tigers games after they have been played?

Cheers
 
I have bigpond, so all games are replayed in full on the site.
I don't know if there is an option to sign up as a bigpond subscriber without actually using them as an ISP, maybe check out bigpond.
The AFL site years ago also had a yearly subscription you could get which would include footage of games.
Otherwise you could always try torrents.... I don't know which ones though.
 
Best way is to apply to Bigpond as an International subscriber - costs about $55 AUD per year, money well spent. There used to be some airtime on ESPN in the US but i think thats no more, but worth trying. Good luck
 
Hey jase

Where abouts in the caribean? I just spent a week in anguilla/ st martin (french side) beautiful place.

Tv wise you might be lucky and have setanta as an option. But you won't get every rfc game.

Afl.com.au used to have games to watch - but it has since moved to aussie sports.tv. Need a broadband connection and a pc (not a mac) I think about $90 a year, cheaper now the season is half over.

The best option unsurprisingly is the illegal option. Explore torrents.

Hey Jason

As mentioned there is always the torrent option but if you want to watch the games live you might want to check out a Slingbox.

The owner of my local pub here in Bangkok gets the Foxtel feed from Oz through this device.
All you need is to know someone who has a Foxtel connection back in Australia, connect this device up to their machine and you'll be watching TV(Tigers games) on your laptop wherever you are in the world. The Oz TV doesn't have to be on for you to get the feed.

Pretty clever technology I reckon.

I'll certainly be looking at getting it when I move to Singapore next year. 8)

In that case make sure you get a place with a decent sized balcony and BBQ pit. I'll bring the beers.
 
Thanks heaps everybody.

Sound slike there are heaps of options available.

Appreciate eveyones input. So now win/lose/draw ill be able to watch.

New York Tiger....I'm living in the Turks & Caicos Islands (not far from he Dominican Republic). Awesome beaches and dive spots.
