Wanting to watch today's game in England on pc - is there an option I can purchase other than the AFL Global pass which doesn't work on pc?

Dunno. I'm in Bali and can watch on Australia Plus network, which I think only covers Asia.

The global version has always worked on PC. I think the Australian version doesn't.

Indeed. The version in Australia is restricted to mobile devices to try and prevent people connecting it to large screen TVs to protect the Foxtel/TV rights.

I have used the Global pass in UK, France, Netherlads , Switzerland and Germany. Has worked fine on both laptops and iPads.

As long as your internet is reasonable it works ok. You can select the lower screen quality if it is a bit laggy.

I've never been able to get the live version going myself, but replays are fine.

The Global AFL Live Pass only works when you're overseas. I have used it in both Singapore and Europe - should work well!
