Channel Nein has scored the TV rights.

At least it would mean Ray Warren rather than Dennis Cometti calling the swimming.

by Zat Sat 13 Oct 2007, 03:13

Yep, and he'll still be at Nein.

Rumours are that most of his pay is direct-banked to his bookie, and will be for quite some time to come.

May not be true, of course...

by Zat Sat 13 Oct 2007, 03:14

Doesn't help with the other sports though.

And visions of Brayshaw, Fat Ed, Garry Lyon, and Nafan Buckley on the commentary/hosting team make me shudder.

What's this? A Zat & Henry reconciliation thread?

Who goes on top during the make-up sex?

by Zat Sat 13 Oct 2007, 03:22

by Henry Sat 13 Oct 2007, 03:22

At least Ray "I know f*ck all about sport" Martin has gone. Im still haunted by his efforts at hosting the 99 world cup coverage.

by Zat Sat 13 Oct 2007, 03:23

I forgot Ken 'I can't commentate to save my life, and ask lots of stupid questions, but I've got sexy eyes' Sutcliffe.

I really will have to start saving.

On the plus side, at least we'll be spared from Bruce.

Wouldn't bother. The 2012 Olympics won't be in London. Nothing will be ready on time and the ICC will embarrassingly have to move it somewhere else at the last minute.

by lardbucket Sat 13 Oct 2007, 07:00

I'm saving for June 2009. Stuff 2012.

by JGK Sat 13 Oct 2007, 07:00

And the way the AUD is going it should be on parity with the pound by then too.

ICC? They in charge of the Olympics now as well?

by lardbucket Sat 13 Oct 2007, 07:04

Buy overseas on credit now.

Who are they? IOC? Something like that.

Who gives a shit about athletics anyway - drug-addled retards running about in ball-hugging lycra. Yay.

You've got a way with words, Dell.

Ah, the bumbling Kenny Sutcliffe. I don't think I have ever seen him deliver a sports report without stumbling over his words. How the hell he survives has got me farked. Your point is well made Zat. It could be a pretty horrendous coverage.

by JGK Sat 13 Oct 2007, 07:37

HTF can Nein afford the Olympics - they are broke as?

by skully Sat 13 Oct 2007, 07:38

Stoopid banks will lend money to anyone these days.

by Guest Sat 13 Oct 2007, 11:41

More Australians in London. Just what we need.

by JKLever Sat 13 Oct 2007, 12:11

If they bring the spondooliks for the economy who cares if they come from Mars?

No ozzie rules coverage

There's plenty of cheap hostels in Earls court to accomodate them. Especially if they've rebuilt the Earls Court YHA that burnt down (Probably because of a stray Antipodean cigarette) last year.

Most of them do.

It burnt down? I used to live just near there.
