TV Ratings and Revenue

I suspected APL would do this as one of their first steps in taking over the broadcast production. Hill is basically synonymous with Australian football at this point and it’s a no-brainier to have him spearhead the commentary.

I’d absolutely love Peacock to head up the pre-match show or some sort of highlights show.

He’s an even handed host to balance out the Bozza,Harper & Speed buffoonery.

I suspect they may opt for some female hosts/analysts as well.

Love to see Tara back, what actually happened to her, is she still around at Fox?

She’s doing Moto GP last time I saw her.

This would be good. The female players they get in for the colour commentary in the W-League coverage are generally miles better than Archie and Bosnich.

I’d love to see more women on the A-League coverage and more men on the W-League coverage to really hammer home the point that they’re two halves of the same whole.

It would be my dream job to do the presentator roster AND interview at 10. Slamming the door on some of them would feel gooooood.

She’s been on maternity leave. Popped back up on Moto GP the other day though.

I think she’s doing the Macarthur game this weekend, Adam & Boz mentioned it post-game last night.

Cancel kayo after brisbane?

Lucy Zelic has just announced she is finishing up at SBS. Coincidence?

I’m hoping it’s for Paramount. Seems a bit premature to leave now for a WWC two years away?

Maybe. Didn’t SBS absolutely take the axe to their sporting operations?

Looking forward to hear Lucy pronouncing “Rhyan Grant”

I have a lot of respect for Lucy Zelic, but I don’t enjoy listening to her. It’s not even the pronunciations, just the way she speaks like she’s had 5 coffees and hardly ever takes a breath just makes me feel uneasy.

I will 100% back attempting to pronounce names correctly over Fox commentators not giving a fuck.

It’s the pure smugness that shits me.
