Possible female sideline commentator for Fox Sports

Get that chick in that does AFL commentating on 10....it is the worst thing you have ever heard!

I know what you mean, although it isn't Christy Malthouse. She seems entirely competent but for some unfathomable reason, the whole thing just doesn't seem right. I heard a lady commentating on English soccer the other day. Same thing. Very competent but just didn't click.

Very happy Woolford is gone.

"You don't want token females," Burns says.
This is exactly what they're asking for though.

Burns wants to use female reporters on the sidelines at league matches.

So which is it?

And Warren Smith will never be the next Ray Warren, whilst he is the best of the Fox Sports bunch he still comes across as smug and unlikeable, and is very predictable.

I doubt there are many females that could be chosen on their merits - the only certainty is they wont go for an ugly old woman ie a feminine version of sterlo or rabs. That said, I find the networks polish on the poster Sterlo/Fatty era is lacking, especially in the Pat TV field. One can argue that the polish has been put onto the Johns brothers (Joey is getting better all the time) and Freddy, but is lacking on anyone else. Consider the list:

MG
Ikin
Kevin Walters
Badge
Wally
Tallis
Daley
Freeman
Junior
Chief
Wendell

and probably a few others. Wally took 20 years to make some sense. Ikin could have been great but got carried away being a Queensland dimwit, Daley found the worlds worst hairdresser and the rest just sounded like they were employed by their mates. The coaches are far better. The Wok is great on ABC. Gus gets too much air time and wastes it arguing with Rabs, but that aside he is great. Brian Smith and Bill Anderson were great too, and Daniel Anderson is warming to his task too.

What about some of the chicks from the LU community?

Kiki, Clifford, Hallatia, Stormchaser, Muzby.

They don't know much about league but you could learn em.

Jenifer Hawkins has a very intimate knoweledge of the game. She would go alright.
No one has a more intimate knowledge of the game than that kiwi chick that Matty Johns banged when at Cronulla.
