I thought we were done with f**king Healy.
Tbh, I don't find Healy that bad.
With Heals now at Fox, that left Mark Nicholas, Ian Chappell, Mark Taylor, Kevin Pietersen and Michael Clarke as the only ones from the Ch9 stable that didn't get a gig at Ch7/Fox. After more than a decade since he joined Ch9, at least I've finally been spared of Nickelarse's adjectives and superlatives.
I don't mind Heals, Warne is really the only one I depsie on fox
Glad Slater not there, heard him at the CPL god he is worse than awefull now
This.
If only Warne had signed with Ch7, that would've been close to the perfect line-up Fox assembled. I would have no reason to tune in to Ch7 at all and be bombarded with the constant AFL references. You guys thought it was bad enough putting up with it on Ch9 (which it was)? Well, Ch7 are going to up the ante in that regard, especially towards the end of the summer with the frequent cross-promotions.
So happy Slater's gone to Ch7. It's a shame Slats has gone the way he is now because he was a good commentator when he started out during the mid 2000s in England. It seems after he joined Ch9 in 2006/07 that everything went downhill from there.
That cocksnot Healy has found his way over as well by the looks.
If it's a choice between Healy and Brayshaw/Fleming/Tim Lane and all the other AFL lackeys at Ch7, I'd prefer listen to Healy any day of the week.
Irrespective of whoever the commentators are on Ch7 or Fox, I predict that TV ratings (across both Ch7/Fox combined) will be down this year, largely due to the fall-out from the South African tour.
