Andrew Gaze has been doing crosses back into the main channel program from the venue.
God they truly are pathetic arenât they, was it written by Sharp?
Lol. I will admit it was pretty awkward when it was live but sill a stupid article.
Nine and 9Gem are both showing menâs park skateboarding preliminaries, but in different order. 9Gem is showing from the introduction of players, while main channel just joins in for the final stages.
It was awkward when it happened. Especially since in the previous 2 goldâs by Jess, Richard was able to go immediately without Dave saying wait. The only thing I can think is that Dave wanted him to help him commentate the menâs which was immediately following the womenâs but then saw the family celebrating and told him to join them
This is a total non-story, Fox is there to be a professional expert, he has obligations beyond celebrating with his daughter and the Australian lounge room fan club. Culbert was trying to focus on calling, a fine job as always might I add, probably just shouted and wrong phrasing in the heat of the moment.

edit 11:10pm
3m womenâs springboard final underway and neither 9 or Gem airing it, focussing on Aussies in the sailing and skateboarding respectively. Wonder if Taylor and Fricker are even calling or if theyâll use the world OBS feed?
Nine should create a 9Olympics X account different to the WWOS account for their Olympics content similar to NBC with NBCOlympics and CBC with CBDOlympics
I would have thought that the diving would be "more popular " than the sailing. Skateboarding is a new event, so I understand airing that. Some odd choices from Nine recently.
Stan Sport is the greatest thing ever invented. Itâs made the Olympic experience better for most Aussies. On the swimming you could listen to Matt Thompson or the world feed. i wish theyâd do this when the Wallabies go to NZ, so you could get the Sky NZ calls on a different stream from Sean Maloney and co.
I could be wrong, but didnât they do this?
Stan Sport is my favourite feature but we donât get any coverage from CBC in Canada or Supersport in South Africa
Hope for Milan-Cortina there is an option for CBC to hear the CBC NHL callers during the ice hockey
Not a growth platform.
The result in the sailing should at least partially vindicate Nineâs decision. It was for a medal when the diving was for qualifying for a semi final place; and they did end up showing some dives.
Amazing ranking on the medal table
Wearn and Palmer like an hour apart, back-to-back golds, now 16
Expect replay, highlight, interview etc saturation across Thursday!
The thing I wish they did with Stan is add the ability for split screen. With so many events going on, split screen is ideal for an Olympic viewer
They are using Instagram and tiktok to show the videos instead of Twitter. So they are still posting videos on socials just not Twitter like 7 did and like what NBC still do
Just saw Tony Jones interview Nina Kennedy after her gold medal and she finished with âthanks chompersâ. He wouldnât have liked that. His ego wouldâve taken a massive hit.
