Turns out making those ads doesn't take long. See! I made one about #ScottyFromMarketing #AustraliaOnFire

“One thing about Wales is they never give up” says commentator who has been following the Wales team for 6 days. #RLWC26

Not sure how much training, mock calls or prep some of these ‘experts’ did before being hired to commentate a Rugby League World Cup. A Former coach, Kimmorley adds little insight and doesn’t seem to know player names. Emma Verran starts every single sentence with “ooooh”. #RLWC

Michael Clarke joining 2Day FM breakfast is…. Baffling. Seems like they’re trying to do what Nova/MMM/Kiis in Melbourne have done in the past with AFL players, difference being they are all moderately likeable.

Spotted a very prominent NRL journo at the Bledisloe

I lot of nervy and uncertain efforts from a couple of commentators and the broadcast team on 7 who aren’t used to televising league. Director just went bananas with shot selection in those final seconds. #rlwc

Bloody hell this is entertaining #rugbyleagueworldcup

Turbo just had his Billy Slater moment

Jacob Preston’s dad loves a chat #rugbyleagueworldcup

Dan McPherson is Aldi Matt Nable, but without the Sky News endorsements

Ah yes, well known Essendon AFL supporter/racing expert Emma Freedman helming Channel 7’s rugby league World Cup coverage

That CCTV vision of Kelly Clarkson in the bird shop is this generation’s Zapruder footage

Weird how Blakey is now in some kind of way acknowledging some kind of wrongdoing (club standards or otherwise) now that he’s being paid $11m after crying poor me a few days ago

Purely from a footballing standpoint, it’s funny to watch the 180 being done by some Swans fans (and some media) about Blakey’s onfield liabilities now that he’s out the door

Hey @themiasandrist Did you hear about this 30 Rock 20th Anniversary event at Radio City Music Hall?!!! Looks like they were ALL there. Even Dennis and Kathy Geiss

The men can’t let AFLW have one week to themselves, can they

Not to condone booing, but I reckon if there was ever a former Swans player who might cop it when they return to the SCG, it would be Blakey. This whole episode is not painting him in a favourable light.

I’ve heard a lot of brekkie radio over the years. Made the mistake of listening to some of Beau Ryan MMM Sydney a couple of times recently, and it’s truly bottom of the barrel. He first up asks callers their favourite s*x positions, there’s homophobic jokes and generally is 💩.

RIP Richard Morecroft. The soundtrack to staying at my grandparents’ house in the holidays.

Nine crossing to Roosters ‘heartland’ where one person is wearing a Roosters tee shirt

Niav Owens the only one providing relevance to #offsiders NRL coverage. When it comes to AFL, they rotate a billion experts and journalists. NRL, they continually go to experts based in Melbourne - V’Landys-loving Hoffman and Roy Masters, who has no business being on TV in 2026.
