Seven is only available for NFL fans in Australia who are signed up to the free service.
For NFL fans that are traveling or working outside Oz for the season you will need to use a VPN to access Seven's free broadcasts.
A VPN (Virtual Private Network) allows you to set your devices to appear as if you're in your home country even if you're not. For example, if you're travelling or working away, you can use a VPN to make your device appear as though it's in Australia so you can watch Seven's coverage of the NFL.
There are lots of VPNs but NordVPN is our favorite and will allow you safely unblock Seven's NFL coverage — plus you can save 70%.
It's really simple to use a VPN to watch NFL on Seven Network.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose a location to connect to in the VPN app. For example, if you want to watch the free NFL opener between the Eagles and Cowboys next week on Seven, choose 'Australia' from the listed countries.
3. Sit back and enjoy the game. Open Seven on your chosen device, sign in, and enjoy the start of the football season for free.
