Being a loyal Hawks supporter and member it is so exciting to finally have our lads in the finals. Having no access to Direct TV, I did the right thing and ordered ITVN through the local footy website in Florida, and have enjoyed the odd game here and there when I am lucky enough to be around. Imagine my dismay finding out that this weeks 2nd finals game is only available on Setanta Xtra ... available only on Direct TV (the channel I am unable to receive).
Now theoretically I could go to the pub ... if they opened at 5.30 in the morning. I also noticed the comment listed in the Setanta Schedule that mentioned they do this when two games are on live at the same time? Could anyone see which game they are referring to? It seemed to me that the game wasn't overlapping anything listed on Setanta.
Setanta are improving week by week, and I am grateful to be able to watch some footy, but I was hopeful to be able to see all the footy finals. Especially when my beloved Hawks are there for the first time in a long time. I will watch the delayed replay, but isnt "live" what it is all about?
Can anyone else feel my pain? Hawks or Roos supporters?

The other live match is...
ITVN
Thanks for your info.
It's funny you mention the link through your website for the ITVN sign-up.
I did actually try to do the right thing and use a link so as to support the volunteers over here. I really don't remember if I did it through the FLL Footy Club or if I tried through the AFANA site, but I did attempt to do it that way. I'm not sure if it was due to my error or the link not registering correctly, but I sure did try to do that. I know in the end your Steve Irwin like tears were meant as such, but I thought I would let you know that somewhere along the line my good intentions were somehow in vain.
