Channel 7 and the AFL media in general arrogantly presume AFL fans love Cricket because "ya not a fair dinkum auzzie if ya don't love da cricket!"

I've always called bullshit on that. The picture is proof.

True.

I used to love cricket, couldn’t really give a toss anymore besides the ashes and tests versus India/Safas

Ever since Kerry Packer died cricket got a lot better imo

What about listening on the radio? I remember fondly many years ago an ashes series where I worked at night driving a van and really enjoyed hearing the descriptions by the very articulate English broadcasters from the BBC.

That's kinda like listening to tennis on the radio - it's just not the same and it's not as easy to follow verbally as, say, footy.

A lot more vivid than football commentary IMO.

Pretty good match this morning. Windies beat us with 1 ball to spare.

On TV it can be as monotonous as hell, same as NASCAR or F1 but actually being there is a whole nother thing.

Has never been the same without Richie Benaud. As long as I have been alive whenever I turned the TV on he was the voice of the game. RIP.

Well at least with fishing you can get yourself a nice dinner, see the occasional dolphin.
