G'day Mates! You Keen for Some Gridiron Glory? How to Watch the NFL in Australia (2023 Edition - No Time Machine Needed)
Listen up, cobber! It's that time of year again - time to ditch the cricket whites and snag yourself a foam finger because the NFL season is upon us! But for us Aussies, catching a glimpse of all that pigskin action can be trickier than wrangling a rogue emu. Fear not, fair dinkum fans, because this here guide is your golden ticket to NFL nirvana.
Gone are the Days of Dodgy Streams (Probably)
Forget about dodgy internet streams that buffer more than akoala on a gum leaf bender. This year, there are a few legit ways to watch your favourite teams battle it out for the Lombardi Trophy.
Here's the lowdown:
-
DAZN: Your One-Stop NFL Shop (with a Catch)
This is the big cheese, the main course, the whole shebang! DAZN has snagged the rights to broadcast every single NFL game, from the season opener to the glorious Super Bowl. Here's the kicker (no pun intended): you'll need a subscription. But hey, at least you won't miss a single touchdown or epic fumble. -
Kayo Sports: Pick and Choose Your NFL Fix If you're more of a "catch a few games here and there" kind of fan, then Kayo Sports might be your huckleberry. They show a decent selection of NFL games throughout the week, so you can still get your fix of touchdowns and trick plays.

Channel 7: Free NFL? Now You're Talking My Language! Looking to save a few bucks? Channel 7 throws a free bone to NFL fans with a select few games throughout the season. It might not be every match, but hey, beggars can't be choosers (and free snags are always a win).
Bonus Tip: If you're feeling real fancy, Foxtel also offers some NFL coverage through ESPN. But that's a whole other ball game (and likely requires a bigger wallet).
So, Crack Open a Coldie and Settle In!
There you have it, legends! With a bit of planning and maybe a cheeky subscription or two, you can be yelling "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie, Oi, Oi, Oi!" for your favourite NFL team all season long. Just remember, even if the jet lag makes you want to take a nap during a 3am game, there's always the replay (and the highlights on YouTube, but shhh, that's our little secret).
Now, grab yourself a barbie snag, crack open a coldie, and get ready for a season full of bone-crushing tackles, Hail Mary passes, and enough touchdowns to make a magpie jealous.
