If you watched the channel Nine news tonight in Adelaide, you would have seen one of the most impressive debuts by a footballer as a sports reporter.

James Begley gave a report on the Thunderbirds tonight. He looked totally at home, and very professional. He speaks very well, sounding both natural, but confident.

James already sounds much more professional and at home than Mark Bickley, and IMO could really make a career in TV sports reporting if that's his intention.

Not a bad footballer either. James is a man of many talents.

Did anybody else see the Begley report on the news tonight?? If you did, I'd be interested in your thoughts on his performance.

Both.

You saw him as he introduced the item, and then heard him as the vision rolled, with the camera finally coming back to him as he finished by saying "this has been James Begley for Channel Nine News".

He was first class.

Yeah, have to agree Begley was pretty impressive, particularly compared to some other (ex-)footballers. Just need him to take over presenting the sport to put us out of our misery...;)
He should take over for channel 7 on Bruce's team.

That Lee Jeloseck character reads the report like hes starring in a really bad episode of Days of Our Lives :rolleyes:

Begs, you are a natural mate. ;)

Next time however, stick to something with more testosterone. Netball isnt good for 'the look'. *shakes head*
I thought that was the most impressive thing about Begley's presentation, Radar, my little speedster, as he was in an area that you wouldn't think he would have been comfortable in as opposed to footy.

He looked like he'd been doing it all his life. My missus has become an on the spot James Begley fan!! ;)
