We had the Aussie comms here in Pomgolia and I thought they were ok actually.
Kearns a bit whinge at times as usual, but all in all, not bad.
Did have to laugh at "Wyatt Crockett, the most penalised player in world rugby" though.

@stargazer I try to block them out but somehow the bastards get through.. I like to hear somethings like injury tests results replacements etc. The disease has spread to the NPC where we get bombarded with useless stats and every try is a great one. I presume this ‘ fan boy ‘ approach is at sky’s behest but surely we know and accept that not every game /play /try is going to be a great one. Plus dont let me get started on the league copying young ladies they seem to have introduced

found it amusing when Marshall said something along the lines of 'I dont mean to talk about him, but i'm just gonna blurt it out...'
Hate to be the one to tell you Justin, all you do is blurt shit out!

Mute button is your friend. Haven’t listened to a rugby test in ages.
Quite enjoy the NPC commentary teams, although Sumo is starting to grate a bit.
Don't you miss the ground noise and the whistle?

Not really.

The FTA station here has Gordon Bray
I'd rather stab my ears with a fork. Repeatedly.

@antipodean Yes. The attempts to give everyone a nickname loosely based on the place they grew up or went to school are, regrettably, still in place.

Not sure who BEIN Sports got their feed off. Am pretty sure it was Miles Harrison and Moore doing the comms work.
But fuck! Scott Quinnell!
You expect to hear English with a hint of accent, rather than accent with a hint of English.

last week's cantabs loss commentator: SUMO
this week's cantabs loss commentator: NESBONO TJ.
Sumo & Nesbo calling the cantabs games. The commentary booth windows, a standard, transparent consistency without TJ's steamy red & black self-love fogging up the whole show, no sign of his gallons and gallons of man-spunk sluicing down the panes
NO TJ.
Ergo, visa visor, THE CANTABS COLLAPSE WITHOUT THEIR #1 CHEERLEADER EXHORTING THEM ON TO GREATER HEIGHTS. No sideline Smithy either, buttressing his liege's ear with breathy and breathless pied-up incantations of the glory of Izzy. Fat Guts Smithy must be currently bedside at the infirmary ward, plucking Izzy's truss around straight for him, his hand lingering just that beat too long under the motherfucking bedcovers.
Yet another magnificent rant. Bravo .

@rocky-rockbottom that's odd, as noted by nepia, Smith is solid hurricanes.
His love for Israel Dagg is a love that transcends teams. Probably warps space and time too, it is that strong.
Smith supports the Hurricanes, officially, but you can tell where his heart lies.
