Wouldn’t have to if they made the effort to broadcast from the ground where possible, not just games in Sydney and Melbourne.

Fox calling the WAshes from the studio and using 7’s graphics. Thought they would use their own like they did for the previous one & probably only going to be at the stadium for the matches at SCG, AO & MCG

This is approaching shambolic - they’re not even bothering to call the action at various points.
Currently, they’re talking about an injury that Alex Blackwell sustained some time ago, meanwhile, the game continues as a secondary element

They also don’t even make an effort to hide that these days
I genuinely think they should take the 7 feed cause they don’t have the player mic and not at the ground
or do what they did during Covid.
I’m not sure if they are doing sponsorships and reads but not mounting their own commentary and shoulder coverage means they can’t do any of that. It would likely be a purely commercial decision.
The phrase phoning it in comes to mind
So they had Kirby Short in the “commentary box” (assuming at Artarmon) only to have her go down to North Sydney Oval to do some lunch break work at the ground?
It always feels like to me that Fox have never really cared about womens cricket

Also with Kirby Short. She’s probably freelance cause this is a Summer Holiday job for her. Apparently is a school teacher
Must be on contract at a private or Catholic school, or on short term temp in a government school.
Permanent teachers and those on 12 months contract in NSWDoE get paid through Dec-Jan holidays. I dont think the do in the othet systems unless they are permanent.
Kirby must really wanna get into media or is a glutton for punishment. Most teachers switch brains off and do SFA during holidays.
Yeah she is a Deputy Principal
Yes. MacGregor “The Best We Can Be” State High School.
