TV and radio commentary line-ups / Which radio station do you listen to for footy?
one-eyed:
Spud is doing special commentary for Fox Sports. Apparently his first game is the Dees vs Hawks this weekend.
--- Quote ---Fox Sports has finalised their commentators with Clinton Grybas, Gerard Healy, Jason Dunstall and wikipedia's Dwayne Russell lol to head the coverage.
Fox Sports is opting for one play-by-play caller only, supported by two special comments callers.
Insiders suggest Fox Sports will use the pre-season coverage to test a number of new callers, including recently retired players Alastair Lynch, Glenn Jakovich, Rohan Smith and Leigh Colbert and former Richmond coach, Danny Frawley. Plus Liam Pickering, David Parkin, and Tony Shaw.

Did anyone else who saw the game tonight on tv think Bruce was flat in his calling and didn't have the usual enthusiasm even if it was just a NAB Cup game?
We turned the sound down and switched on SEN's call with Anthony Hudson and Dermie and they were pretty good.
Stephanie:
I thought it was a bit boring, maybe because it was just the NAB cub? :-\
I watched the first half, then was flicking between that and Charlie's Angels :lol

3AW drops the ball with ratings
20 June 2007 Herald-Sun
Michael Horan
RADIO 3AW's long-standing dominance of football broadcasting is over after it took a belting in ratings released yesterday.
Figures yesterday revealed the ABC was the clear winner in three of the four football timeslots.
Triple M won the other timeslot, while 3AW -- No. 1 across the board this time last year -- had slipped to third in every slot.
Since the departure of Hutchison and Sam Newman from Triple M, the station has risen to seize No. 1 in the coveted Saturday market with its preview, call and review on the back of its 2007 team, fronted by Garry Lyon, James Brayshaw and Brian Taylor. The ABC and Triple M rate one-two across the board.
The new player in weekend football coverage, SEN, has had no impact, with a miniscule market share.

That amazes me - they are good. Rex is impossible to listen to once the game starts but their pre-game is the best imho.
