I actually don’t mind either of them, a good pair to lead the broadcast. If they get McGrath and Hame, on the other hand, I can not see that working well

Flemming is painful. He honestly thinks bowlology is stuff is hilarious.
He used to actually be pretty good on Fox years ago until he started to sniff his own arse thinking he's the funniest man alive.

I would have thought you are very much in the minority thinking Ponting is a bad appointment.

actually I am looking forward to the cricket this season and can't understand the constant dribble about the problems..
leave that with you cos I know it is either those who complain and do it to get a rise out of people or else it is done so that
someone will have a chop out and let it be the story rather than the real story...

Dearie me. As if there needed to be another reason to listen to TMS.
Channel 9 trying to sabotage cricket now?

Wow. Even not taking the suspension into account, who the * thinks David Warner is a good media figure?

Pretty clear they are doing it as a publicity stunt over anything else.
The best thing for all of them to do would be to fade into the background for a while and do their time. There is a precedent for this though...Shane Warne spent his 12 month suspension in the commentary box
People were sympathetic to Shane because his mum apparently did it. Warner is on the nose with both the Australian public and the Australian players. If he still had hope of returning to the team then it's poor judgment from David but if he's resigned himself to never coming back then he may as well cash in.
He's got a voice for print media however.
I hope Slater isn't anywhere near the comms for this series. It would become a complete dribble fest if he was on milking sympathy for Warner left, right and centre.

Good thing I have Fox then...before I remember Warne ended up there.
* you campaigners at Seven. Roaming Brian on Boxing Day would be better than Slats. What a serious * up.
With Slats, it depends who he's with, I've seen him be perfectly fine on the rare occasions he's in England commentating. If he's not with the circle jerk bunch on nine, he might pull his head in.
For example, if he's with Punter or someone like that, Slats will have to behave professionally.

Slater signing with Ch7 is a massive coup for Fox
