I thought she did alright for her first shot at it.
For those suggesting Christy Malthouse should get a go, you really have no idea... Kelli is very well respected within football circles for her professionalism and for what would have been a very nerve wracking experience, she did well.
It's not an easy job to think off the cuff like that, most people aren't up to the task (it seems much easier from the arm chair) so good on her for giving it a go and hopefully she has more opportunity to improve on her first game.
And to those not doing their research properly, besides the single quarter she commentated for 3AW she's also done a couple of games for ABC radio, but TV's a bit of a different beast.
I agree she may have reverted to newsreader/reporter mode a bit, but overall, her knowledge was good.
