Just tuned in for the first time tonight, and was wondering what on earth is Jason Taylor doing on the Fox League coverage? With all the dropkicks on the Fox League lineup, Steve Crawley has really outdone himself.

Just gone from one job and waltzed right into another.

Flicking through Fox and would you believe they are showing a 12th replay of 'the Professors poor attempt to keep himself on tv' on Fox 8?? WTF.

Flicking though the tv guide trying to find the times for the games and found a tv show in the middle of the day which is just all Micheal Jennings career tries. Recorded it and have found time to watch it today. What a simple but enjoyable show. All it is is Jennings scoring tries. But you see the evolution of his career and the nrl in General. You see a small fast kid scoring a try against El masri, congratulated by the Pulatua Brothers, Frank Pritchard and Luke Rooney, you see him slowly get better, you see the team evolve around him, he is set up by gower, then Wallace, then walsh etc through to his rooster days.

Something so simple and i assume cheap was a great watch. More stuff like this would be great

Various Premier League clubs have been doing stuff like that for ages in the UK. I dare say that is what gave Fox Sports the idea. Liverpool FC TV and Man U TV have shows like that all the time.

Kent showing his true colours.
Webster: 'I'm sick of all this contract and off field talk.'
Kent: 'I love it'
Webster: 'I'd rather talk about on field stuff'
Kent: 'There's only so much you can write about the on field stuff'

f**king germ.

Went on to say that no one cares about the quality of the games.

Webster's a wank but called him out
'You've forgotten why you got into the game'

They've had a bunch of players featured so far - normally linked with someone who's playing on the Friday night. I've seen - Hayne, Inglis, Brett Morris, Jarrod Croker & Jennings.

It's great.

I sat there and watched every single one of Gerrards goals one day.

WAR LOOMS TO KEEP RABS, BOLTS AT NINE

THERE could be some intriguing movements inside the corridors of power at Channel 9 over the next few months.

We are told both the network’s leading NRL callers, Ray “Rabs” Warren and Ray “Bolts” Hadley, come off contract after this season.

Fox Sports and Nine are at war over rugby league ratings so don’t be surprised if Fox Sports throw some serious coin at the pair to shift over to pay TV.

It would certainly leave Nine in dire straits.

Doubt it, there's any article somewhere when tv deal was signed that states fox's intention of a youthful line up of ex players to provide a point of difference to the stale ch nine approach.

Fox have tried to get Rabs and Gus before. Fox have so many former Ch 9 people it wouldn't surprise me at all.
