NRL Channel 9 Commentary
Chaps, you MUST do something to address the following problems on your NRLTV coverage of League.
1 We are not yet another state of the USA, so why do we hear "Dee-fence" and "Off-fence" on Australian TV????? I find these two words very offensive !! What about "Defence" and "Attack", two good old Aussie words ???
These are American words, used to describe their dreadful games - Gridiron, Basketball, and Baseball, and should remain in SeppoLand where they belong.
2 When using the phrase "between him and ...", why do we hear, almost always "Between HE and .." Did these guys all leave school in 6th grade, after failing English grammar ??
C'mon fellas, get it right.
3 Both Ben Ikin and Laurie Daly should be "benched" from the commentary team until they learn to make intelligent, concise observations on the game, in under 10 seconds. The pair of them just don't know when to shut up, and it is VERY annoying to hear them going on and on and on.
I hope you can attend to these matters ASAP as your TV audience is gradually swinging over to the other football codes, mainly AFL.
Cheers

Currently watching Broncos vs Eels, 24 April 09. The commentary is so obviously biased towards the Eels that I have stopped watching. There are seldom any positive comments about the Broncos, just the bare facts. Even the level of excitement in the commentators voices is entirely different when the Eels have the ball. I can't watch anymore. Does anyone have an email address to send this comment to?
