Save yourself a Foxtel subscription or AFL Live Pass and catch every game live on the CrownBet app.

@Mods - Feel free to close this deal if in breach of the "gambling / betting" prohibition. Personally, I thought this is permissible, as no betting is required to access the feature and the post is not specifically about gambling itself.

For those of us without Telstra post-paid mobile accounts, this is a great alternative.

Works with screen-mirroring via Chromecast, but for the tech-inclined, might be worth checking this out to access the app on your PC in Chrome.

You don't need to place any bets or pay a deposit to create a CrownBet account, so even if you're not a punter (like me), you can access this for free.

Mod: Whilst this deal is via a gambling website, it isn't a deal for gambling or betting so we have deemed it permissible (the deal itself is for free AFL Live streaming). Needless to say 18+ only should sign up for this website and you may receive calls from the company.

    No betting just access to your notifications and email (I'm assuming) to market to you whenever they want in order to cause you to bet and you open a betting application in order to use the bargain.

      Really, getting something like this without going out of pocket dismisses most rights to complain. I'd assume they wouldn't market much if any as people who bet with them would be inclined not to if they lost rust with acts like that.

          Forget 7GB $40, late last year we got 8.5GB for ~$33 thanks to $200 joining credit.
          Some of us got screwed around and sent extra credit in compensation, mine worked out to 8.5GB for ~$22/month over the 12 month contract.

          I don't, but it was the offer given to me. I know people who use a lot more than that. It is Telstra post-paid not pre-paid. I think it is a pretty sweet deal and would be hard to beat.

    • sween64 on 16/04/2016 - 14:43

      I do for this year but as I'm on Telstra pre-paid it's unlikely I will next year.

      • GameChanger on 16/04/2016 - 14:46

        Yeah I would make the move.

        I'm not sure how their prepaid compares to the competition, but some of their plans blatantly taking money from people.

        They probably do have the best network but the premium paid and comparison to other network performance there is minute difference.

          @froodh: You sure about that?

          If you have Kodi, there's an AFL plugin that lets you watch all the replays (and the quality is watchable for a free replay) but is split into each quarter.

          I haven't used it this year though since I signed up for the free live pass.

    You have to turn on location/tracking services on your device. I used it last week and it is ok, it hangs a bit and the link disappeared in the final minutes of a close game after I had to restart the app and I couldn't watch the last few minutes.

    • pennypincha on 16/04/2016 - 15:17

      Watching Ess v Gee right now, so far - no issues whatsoever. Screen-mirroring with Chromecast, and the picture quality (at least, in my untrained eye) is equal to and perhaps even better than the SD telecasts on Ch 7.

      I imagine your internet speed would somewhat dictate your streaming quality though, so would help to have fast internet.

      • Maltopia on 16/04/2016 - 15:24

        I have Bigpond Cable and get 35.5 Mbps. I watched a few games last week on my iPhone using my network and there were several times when the signal will just stall (rather than lag - sorry, I should have been clearer).

        Could be the kids watching Youtube at the same time somewhere in the house that is causing the signal loss - didn't check what they were doing at the time on their devices.

      • [Deactivated] on 16/04/2016 - 15:32

        this is via the crownbet app? the Telstra app is designed for a 7" screen, projecting onto a TV screen is just blocky.

        • pennypincha on 16/04/2016 - 16:12

          Yeah, via Crownbet. Blows up to my 46" tele very acceptably.

          Like I said earlier; as good as, if not better than the SD broadcast on Ch7.

      If your staying in the kuta/seminyak and legian area it's fairly easy to find a bar playing the footy.

      Alternatively you could do what I did last year. Prop yourself in front of the pool bar and watch game there, make some new friends, eliminating the need for pee breaks and then losing those new friends

      • Sira on 16/04/2016 - 20:42

        You will have no problem at all finding AFL if you are staying in the tourist areas. Most of those bars have more live streams from around the world than I have seen anywhere in one place. Adrenaline Bar in Seminyak is particularly good, with $2.5 bintangs it's hard to leave.
