Channel Ed is here

[Snoop Dog]

Now I have had a crappy week posters......Pies lose again on Sunday to the Dawks, hit a couple of speed bumps at work, then find out Dayne and Bally are still 6 and 2 weeks out respectively (i know collingwood says 3 and 1 respectively but Walshy BS's us all the time).

So anyway good news was went out and had a few beers and came home and saw The Club was on. Well great interview with Dane but the real good news is 'Channel Ed' is here. No longer do I have to put up with listening to other commentators poor crap on us. I can listen to a completely unbiased perspective from Eddie and Tones.

Its gonna be great!

Wouldn't mind listening in to hear Eddie's perspective... but listening to Tony Shaw is like having teeth drilled.

Gotta Love the Pies Shows

 

[TradeDraft]

Hoping someone can Record it and Then Send it out to People who went to the Game because I would love to hear it

 

[TradeDraft]

and Don't have to put up with the Usual Anti-Pie Commentary

 

[Sidebottom2Beams]

The first ever approved bias coverage of a footy game, couldn't be sweeter

 

[FromDaics2Dids]

I saw this on the club. Is this for real ???

 

[Sidebottom2Beams]

I saw this on the club. Is this for real ???

yup lol

 

[pinky951]

Please explain?

 

[half_back_flank]

No Dwayne Russell, no BT, no Bruce.

No problems.

 

[jefffff34]

I would only listen to it if they were actually barracking like mates watching the game.

Otherwise it would be like 5AA/6PR.

 

[blaze036]

The hawks get their channel when Bruce commentates, only fair we get ours

 

[Snoop Dog]

Its just gonna be great and how funny is that promo!

I actually always listening to Christian and Daicos commentate so am glad they are back on and to be fair i never thought they were overtly biased. Shaw was always certainly happy to whack Mick when he was coaching us to.

Anyway going to be great as hate listening to commentators bang on fior the last half about how good the Dawks were and less about some crappy umpiring at crucial stages, the injuries to Pendles and Reid and the impact that would have had and then 7 blokes missing who might make a difference.

BRING IT ON ED!

 

[Chief Ten Beers]

Good on Fox Footy and Ed. Brilliant idea. Can't wait.

Although I like BT. Funny man. Will be interesting to see how one sided it gets!

 

[theaussietilt]

Only problem I see is that if it's a red-button option then it will only be transmitted in SD as far as I know.

Tough decision...

Slip of the tongue?

 

[kickazz]

I recon this is a great idea. I've often thought there should be alternate commentaries available, one example being an R rated one with a bit of swearing here and there.

FYI I've experienced it before with K-Rock doing Geelong games. The final minutes of the 2009 GF are quite horrendously biased with Andrew Bews scream "come on the cats" after Chappy's goal.

I'm gonna have to check this out - it's a great initiative, so long as people take in the spirit it's intended. What I mean by that is people don't arc up saying "I can't believe xxxx said that, what an idiot!" On the other hand, as a consumer of the commentary you would also need to take what they say with a grain of salt lest your own prejudices become entrenced!

But purely as an entertainment factor, I recon this is a winner!

 

[Carusiii]

I'll also be checking this out, pretty good idea! Would love to see how Ed goes if the game has a close finish

 

[Snoop Dog]

Slip of the tongue?

you like it?

 

[Beary17]

Question, as its a red button option, am I able to record the game, then hit the red button while watching the replay to get ED tv? Or will the recorded version only give me standard commentary?

 

[Old Spice]

Can see this taking off as a general idea for big games. Ed mentioned approaching Mick Molloy and some other Tiger person to share the desk. That would work well in future. One caller from both sides, eg, Ed and KB, special comments by Shaw and Richo and boundary riders in Hellier and Molloy. That would be hilarious.

Same pattern could apply for other big clashes.

 

[jmac70]

Can it be recorded with Ed's commentary?

 

[MegaBob]

Sunday at 10pm there will be a replay of the game on Fox Footy with the opportunity to 'press red for Ed'.

 

[Suspense]

thats cool but im still waiting for the option to hit a button and get the blazed malcolm blight commentary track.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I REALLY hope that if you record it while the Collingwood audio track is on, it records that audio instead of the normal audio.

Fingers crossed. I REALLY wanted to hear it.
