"And now let's cross to Zac Tuohy on the boundary talking to Magpies director of coaching Brendan Bolton..."

Isn't Zac Tuohy also being mentioned? Danger also does a bit part time. Joel S. Who are the others?

I guess we have Cotch, Jack & Richo.
Not sure .

I find Jack very good , I don’t watch any of the “ shows” so I haven’t seen the Skip , no doubt he’d be exceptional
 

Something that appears to have been slipped into the new agreement is that for the 1st 15 rounds, Ch 7 cannot show any games live on a Saturday (except specials like Dreamtime, Anzac Day etc.) They will be on a 2hr delay (or an hour for night games).
I reckon this is a terrible deal- i know Foxtel have paid the money, but the idea that only those with pay TV can watch a game live on a Saturday night is going to cost the AFL a bit of love i reckon. (and they cant really afford to lose much more.)

I only watch Kayo but that’s shitful for the average viewer, especially 55+

The less the better.
I hate watching other clubs

I hope this doesn’t do for footy what a similar deal has done to cricket. Not every fan can afford pay tv. I keep hearing ‘was there a cricket match on?’, I sincerely hope it doesn’t get to the stage where I hear ‘was there a footy game on?’

*smile*, I'm a long way past 55 n it's not a problem at all. Guess it might be a tad difficult if you've still got a black n white T.V. or something but FMD it's 2024 not the dark ages of the 50s n 60s.

Bloody hell, this really is going back to the future. What year is it, 1995?

The other part hidden away in that article is that Foxtel are going to move some sport including some footy shows on to Binge which is a move to get subscribers over to Hubbl rather than just Kayo.

I dont think they are moving them, i think they will be on both- at least that is how i read it.
 
I thought we was in 2024

Nearly 68,000 attended the 2026 round nine game between the two sides, with six of the Dogs' top 10 home and away crowds featuring the Magpies.
