As if CH9 would be smart enough to instruct it commentators to promote the game it broadcasts, no they let them promote a game they do not.

It is hard enough for spinners in the national side, surely they could do without giving them derogatory nicknames.

This f**kinh Mong Brayshaw can't go 5 minutes without talking about fumbleball
Who cares Brayshaw if you Blow this Victorian in the back sheds before the Fumbleball show. Why the needs to constantly pump up and mention their shithouse game???? If it was so good it would sell itself FFS!!

Farkin' weird.

Wonder if that's why Fox Sports put The Closed Talker in the box during last summer's Big Bash

100% agreed. I don't want to get too far off topic, as this is a cricket forum. However, I simply cannot understand why all these Victorians feel the need to RAM and SHOVE AFL down our throats all the time. I'm getting bloody sick and tired of hearing them do this. Never have I seen such a sporting organisation that displays such arrogance and very sanctimonious behaviour. I just mentioned that Flemmo is another cricket commentator who does it, Shane Warne did it when he was commentating, Sarah Jones (from Fox Sports) also made heaps of AFL references during the BBL. If AFL really is AS good a game as it's allegedly made out to be, why the constant NEED to talk about it at any opportunity, hijack other sporting broadcasts with their dribble, and as I said, RAM and SHOVE it down ppls throats? "Victorianis" should be the name of a new disease, referring to individuals from Victoria who exhibit this sort of behaviour and cannot see things from an objective viewpoint when ppl disagree with their views on AFL.

Whilst the ppl at the top of Ch9 are some of the most influential ppl in the AFL, they will always spruik AFL, even if they don't have the rights for it.

Pretty sure the Mong who runs Nien now is a Victorian, and it's not Eddie McChins.
