Don't want a token SA identity. Would rather just good commentators. Matt Campbell is South Australian and I can't stand his comentary.
Seems though that they are going down the path of 'colour men' and manufactured rivalries between commentators to make things more interesting. Has the reverse effect.
What used to come naturally for guys like Commetti and Taylor now seems very forced and there is a new generation trying to follow suit. If you're trying to create chemistry then you don't have it.
The simple set up of two guys sharing the play by play and one special comments guy making the higher-level observations worked fine. There's about six different guys piping up now at various times.
