What a disgraceful bunch of fanboys. Phil Kearns and whoever the other two commentators were. Sounded like a bunch of 10 year old girls squealing when aussie players made breaks, disrespecting NZ players. Never thought id say, I wish I was listening to Gordon Bray.

I agree 100%, all three are simply a disgrace. Completely one-eyed

Usually the bias during the Super14 season is border line acceptable, but they really took it to the next level in tonights match. Greg Martin is by far the worst.

Good game though.

I actually complained to Fox last year about the biased commentary of Phil Kearns in particular...there was no objectives comments last night.

Kearns is another Tallis...good player but no idea on commentating the action as it plays out.

Very pathetic display and I actually muted it...the Wallabies played well but Kearns made himself out to sound like a conceited, arrogant merkin...

As for Greg Martin...read above. Class clown really.

our rugby coverage is recognised as the best in world rugby.... the only guy from sky i really have a problem with is Tony Johnson... hes a biast prick. i dont think Mex is all that biast... hes just a poor commentator i think. Nisbo, Drakey & Smithy are the best.

Also... Grant Fox has to be the best comments man in the world. i just wished someone would pick him up between world cups.

I couldn't agree more shiznit. Tony Johnson's ok when the ABs aren't playing but when they are, he's unbearable to listen to.

At least the Kiwi commetators balance it a little with objective comment...the Aussie Bozo's still crap on about how good they are and sit there like screaming kids.

Can we all agree that regardless of how bias the Fox sports team are...and the NZ team...they are both nowhere near as bad as the South African team.

I remember seeing someone get rucked on the face and the commentators said "Ah tell you. Thet was some vintaahge rucking. Wonderful footwork from the big man from de veldt...".

To SA commentators the Boks can never do any wrong.

I like the way Setanta commentators do teh six nations (maybe they are BBC) usually a team of two from different nations. Much more even commentary, mind you they have no idea what the elv's are.
