I really wish the C9 commentary team was simply Mark Taylor, Michael Slater, warney, Nicholas, healy and even gilchrist!! That's all no one else!


Healy is an annoying incredibly biased Twat.

He would not get anywhere near a gig on my team.

True for sure but as much as i love Ferguson, is his technique tight enough for test cricket yet? Khawaja's form has dipped of late too. Who else is in the picture?[/quote]
You could push haddin up the order and bring in an all rounder like O'Keefe maybe????

Okeefe, can't believe people talk about him as an all rounder! Steve Smith is way ahead of him batting wise!
Okeefe bats 8/9 and has had lots of not outs hence his average being high!

Mark Nicholas I really like as a commentator and Healy well I added him in with the rest simply because I liked him as a cricketer so he has some browny points

Lets hope we see episode 2 of the Hussey and Haddin show otherwise we are in more trouble than the early settlers.

O'Keefe's batting form has been impressive of late but i think we need a speciallist batsman. If Doherty fails im sure O'keefe would be next in line for the spinners spot. Having said that a 5fa from Hauritz has put him back in the mix.

Everyone thought it would be the end of his form slump as he could focus on his game, that didn't work. I have to wait til 8:30 and watch the highlights for todays game for any action.

Sorry mate but Nicholas is absolute crap and Healy is as dumb as dog shit. Chappell might be a repetitive old git who flogs a dead horse and who still thinks it's 1972 but he's got more of an idea than both of those idiots put together.

Not a massive fan of healys commentating, I just like him because of his playing career.

Is it a myth or fact about grieg having a contract for life? I really think him and lawry are the biggest hack of commentators to be heard

Liked this snippet from cricinfo :)

This is the sort of dedication we like to see: "I'm sat at home in Canada. it's -35 outside, but I'm feeling very warm after such a great start by England. My Canadian wife thinks I'm stark raving mad essentially following some words and numbers on a screen! I love being a bloke."

If there was a "life" deal, I'm not sure how valid it would be since the death of K. Packer.
Greig is a VP of Marketing at Nein, which is why he often spruiks the merchandise.

Not a fan of too many on the Nein team really except for Taylor, Chappelli and a dash of Benaud.
