A someone watching via Kayo, I did not know thatI like how if you watch the 4k channel you dont get score of other game in corner
Browny.
King and his 13 screens stayed home
Did he move back?Browny lives on the Gold Coast.
Yeah, moved back once his radio gig was up.Did he move back?
Wonder if in same place as before. Its down road from meYeah, moved back once his radio gig was up.
So he flies from Brisbane to Melbourne every weekend / Monday for games and On The Couch.Yeah, moved back once his radio gig was up.
Is there anyone he's worked with he hasn't called 'superstar' yet?Mark Howarth practically sucks Buckley’s dick whenever they do a game together.
Or “the great man”Is there anyone he's worked with he hasn't called 'superstar' yet?
You recall correctly, even right at the start back in '02 you could press red for stats for example, that's about the only things that's moved to Kayo.IIRC with foxtel IQ the viewer was able to change camera angles, turn off the commentators (crowd only), or press red for ed. It that still a thing.
That would mean getting agreements with said tv and radio stations, who may already have their own exclusive contracts (e.g. Triple M & LiSTNR). Same with clubs doing their own call; all the ex-players in the media are tied down to a tv and radio station. Even if that wasn't a barrier, the cost would be. Remember, this is the network that won't send commentators interstate.in order for streaming services to take the next step we need to be able to do that, as well as chose commentator stream, Ch7, foxtel, radio (MMM, 3Aw etc) or clubs could have their own call. The footage itself would still be the Ch7/foxtel feed so all the ground sponsors, would still be air.
They say that they do, but why does it seem like their commentary is like they're just calling off the same s**t we're seeing? It's so embarrassing. Is there any other major professional sporting league in the world that does this? There needs to be more attention brought to it.
the amount of times they zoom in on the face of someone about to kick it inside 50 is insane. i don't want to see the player trying to think what they'll do, I want to see what they might be able to kick it toI'd love an option to just have the wide shot when watching the footy, it's really annoying the way they cut in and out and from different angles so you lose some awareness of the position and direction of play. With HD and UHD you can easily follow the wide shots, and you could probably do so even on a phone let alone today's tellies that take up half the wall.
Why bother with the commentators having to tell us why a player stops and props when he's free in space when if they kept it on that wide shot we'd see for ourselves that he's got nothing on down the ground
Not sure if this has been mentioned before, but a number of Fox commentators are a very long way removed from their last formal involvement in football clubs.
Dunstall, Lyon and Brereton all peaked in the 1980s.
Fun fact: Brereton's debut was several years closer to World War II than to Nick Daicos' debut.
Not being ageist, just suggesting there's got to be some more contemporary views on the game.
Just bc u are older doesn't mean you are removed from the game. Thats a bizarre comment. If this was the case then Wayne Bennett and Bellamy wouldn't be considered 2 of the best coaches in the NRL. You can be young and have completely no idea in the same way that an older commentator might prophesise that you need to "kick the ball long" in every situation.It's not just Fox Footy. Throw the net a bit wider and you'll find names such as:
Dwayne Russell: last played in 1991
Gerard Healy: last played in 1990
Brian Taylor: last played in 1990
This is the equivalent of watching Channel 7 in the 1980s, and having no one younger than Lou Richards or Jack Dyer. Or having Peter Landy endlessly ask Lou Richards what he would have done instead of watching the game in front of them.
If it wasn't such a boys' club none of them would have a job. They all like to think of themselves as the cool kids but they are now so far removed from the game their opinions don't matter.
Good summary imo. Think you could add with Kingy that he becomes so "data metrics" focused he doesn't realise when he has contradicted himself from 2 weeks previous.too many have either been there too long or are there for reasons unknown
Foxtel
Whately - has become a holier than thou pontificator of how the game should be. Used to like him, but his AFL/Geelong cheerleading has worn thin
Robbo - not denigrate TGO, but health aside, i think he's the other side of the same coin to Whately. It should be this, rather than just providing insight
King - Stats heavy bore with narrow ideas that aren't that well considered
Dixon, Mooney & Gaze - Buffoon squad.
N.Riewoldt - now Rossy has a job, his usefulness has disappeared
Foxfooty
Kane - s**t stirrer for the sake of it
Lloyd - Lisa Simpson - answers to questions nobody asked
Dunstall, Dermie, Montagna and Lyon i don't mind.
Bucks is good too. Good insights into the footy side
Brown im on the fence with.
Good summary imo. Think you could add with Kingy that he becomes so "data metrics" focused he doesn't realise when he has contradicted himself from 2 weeks previous.
