Who else would take it?

9 have the infrastructure from having it for years, they just need to drop a large part of this 'new breed' and have a proper scout so that by the next Ashes series, we'll have a decent commentary team.

7 would have a keen interest
 
Agree. 7 butchered the footy after doing it so well during the late 90's. Don't want to see Bruce doing yet another sport he has limited knowledge of

Billy Birmingham is the only reason that Channel 9 still has the over-the-hill blokes who used to be good in the 80s.

Most people love Richie, Tony, Chappelli and Bill because of the impressions done of them.

It's like how people thought it was sad Kim Jong Il was dead because they'd seen Team America.
 
Yeah, I gave up half way through. It's a shame because he's usually a good writer, and wrote a fantastic book on Hughes.

Golden Boy was a cracker wasn't it. Well researched and well balanced. If you watched Australia play in the '80's you should read it.
 
earlier today Warner nearly plays back onto his stumps, but the commentary team were too interested in discussing themselves dancing before the game to bother to talk about the near-dismissal. I would like for them to remember who the actual stars of the show are.
 
someone like tom moody comes in having spent most of the past few years making his living through involvement with cricket, and it shows up against some of the channel 9 clowns who have lived in their commentary box bubble. they don't have to learn about the players from other countries, they don't even have to learn the rules, and so on. one of the old guard (greig) talks about learning the players and pronunciations for a week, slats and heals joke about turning up and making a mess of the names. i still think bill and even richie can't stand slater and healy and their approach to commentary (ie talking about everything except cricket).

and they had a few graphical errors this game on top of the usual shit we've become accustomed to. that dancing stuff, forrest wedding.
