Having lived in London for the past few years, I can safely say that unless the game is on ESPN the chances of watching it live on TV are nil. You might get a replay at one of the Walkabouts.
If you do feel like watching a live game of footy at a pub, Belushi's bars usually play the Friday night games live - handy for me as I work near one and get to have lunch on Friday while watching the footy.

I read somewhere that ESPN took over the rights to broadcast games when Setanta became defunct. I have to make an unscheduled trip to London next week so will be over there for the Dogs game. Need to find somewhere to watch that game so this thread is very timely from my point of view.Leave a comment:

When I lived in London all be it briefly, we watched the AFL at the Walkabout Pub near Leicester Square. Always shown on their big screens.Leave a comment:

Your best bet is the officially sanctioned one of The home of global sports online. Its not cheap, but at least now you can watch games live (Lst year the same service wasn't even in live.) You used to be able to see most games livethrough justintv or one of those, but the AFL seems to ahve cracked down on those feeds very much so this season. Walkabout pubs are useless- only Australian themed really, rarely show much good Australian sport or anything and are just like any other UK pubs.Leave a comment:

Doesn't look like they have our game on live, but look into Welcome to Walkabout, officially the coolest Australian bars this side of the planetLeave a comment:

I'd send a notification to Larissa at the Swans redandwhiteforever and ask her. She may well know, she is pretty good like that. And do it very soon.Leave a comment:

Watching games in England
Hi all,
I tried to find where it has been mentioned previously without success.
How do I go about watching games in England?
Are there better pubs than others? What is the best internet site to sign up to?
Can anyone help please, I don't want to miss my Swannies!
Cheer Cheer
