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.
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.
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.
