The Gabba scoreboard was not working so they were showing the 7 broadcast and when 7 showed that it was also shown on Fox footy to silence - most probably because Fox didn’t know why it was being shown.

Last nights broadcast was a technical mess. Ch7 keep freezing while audio was playing, while Fox was flashing green screens

Assume its a Gabba thing

Fox flew the whole crew over to the Gold Coast tonight


then after the game, they started promoting their call of the Finals this year

this shot stood out to me; not sure I’ve seen anyone go to the footy with an "I heart [commentator] sign before

Pretty rare for Huddo and Dwayne to call a game together.

I remember last year they called the Geelong vs GWS game in round eleven (?) last season, when Toby kicked the winner with seven or so minutes left.

I wonder how they do the commentary split. Will they stick to their typical Thursday & Friday line up with Saturday afternoon final called by Dwayne while the Saturday night final is called by their WA team or will they completely reset the lineup etc.

Looks edited to me

Fox might do what they’ve done for some WA games in sending either one of Dwayne or Huddo to accompany Adam Papalia for the call.

Just use the Thursday and Friday night teams and call 2 games each.

Fox unveiled secondary logo tonight as seen on the mic flags.

Nah m8, those mic flags have been seen since April, sparingly at first, then ramped up the last part of the season on Sundays.
Wouldn’t be surprised if we see them for the rest of the season, unless they have some ‘Finals Footy’ ones ready to go.

  • Thursday and Friday Night Footy, which featured Fox Footy’s dedicated commentary and graphics for the first time, saw audiences lift 22% and 9% year-on-year

Only 9% increase for Friday. That less than what I expected since Friday night is Fox A crew

Correlation being BT commentates on Thursday night.

True and also 7’s Brayshaw & Nicholson combo isn’t too bad. I think it Fox had Huddo and Wheatley on Thursday that increase could of been even more :joy:
