GEELONG FOOTBALL CLUB 2008 - UK TV GUIDE

AS THE CATTERY will be watching Geelong games from London for the foreseeable future, we thought it appropriate we share our knowledge of just how the hell you manage to watch our games in this place! We're pleased to report at least the first couple games will be on Setanta Sports, available within the United Kingdom and Ireland. That's on top of the sometime coverage at the ubiquitous Walkabout pubs.

Unfortunately, the live coverage is only on Setanta Sports 2, whereas the most readily accessible channel is Setanta Sports 1, which is available on 'Freeview'. To get Setanta Sports 2, you need to do one oft he following:

  • Get it on Satellite direct www.setanta.com
  • Get broadband from Tiscali (which is what we've done) www.tiscali.co.uk
  • Get it from Virgin Media (Cable - in very limited areas!)

NOTE Setanta's 'Broadband' service does NOT INCLUDE AFL - blame the AFL for this! Why, we don't know. It's limited to the UK only, anyway, and AFL.com.au does not offer live coverage anyway.

You COULD pay 9.99 a month view 'Freeview' and watch the games on Setanta Sports 1, however this would typically be the next day, ie. not 'live'.
