What did he even do at ESPN? Report for the website? With his accent he was never going to commentate anything higher than the lowest level college basketball. ESPN has fired a shitload of people since he left so he might've seen the writing on the wall.
I remember seeing him host Sportscentre on ESPN at some stage, but didn’t ever hear him commentate on any sport.

I think that was Australian Sportscenter which had about 3 viewers.

Bennett did a 30 on 30 documentary on Cadel Evans - A good piece, especially considering Evan's reticence in front of the camera.

Top commentator.
Tells you what you need to know & noticeable with McAveney absent that BT seems to have toned down as well.

Why the * do 7 have this guy commentating the VFL?
He's one of the best commentators in the business.
Laughable you have a guy like Darcy doing play-by-play commentating over him.
