NRL on Nine

6 Likes


Watching through Spidercam, NSW Player Cam and QLD player cam so no need to put up with the commentary from chief caller Matthew Thompson.
Tonight’s State of Origin will be the most electrifying match of the year.

I do love your commitment to watching via Spidercam/avoiding the commentary

He’s terrible. He sounds very biased towards Qld to the point of cheering them on.

Ray Warren never showed his true colours.

On a side note, watching a “world” feed you don’t get any of the Nine branding. There’s science when nine go to an ad. Not extra watermarks in the bottom right of the info bar. Didn’t even get the captions for the commentators names.

That’s interesting @cmo because Sky Sport NZ appears to be taking a direct Nine feed which includes those elements you’re missing. Must be opting to take a dirty/warts and all feed

Probably this dodgy bar in Phuket, seems to be taking a feed on a laptop via a vpn. I think it’s FS2 coverage from the US.

The French feed from bein sports is also clean, they add their own French commentary.

This Thai bar lost the US feed for a while so we had to watch the French.

Who is calling Cowboys v Knights NRLW match?

Murray Conallin, with Andrew Johns and Millie Elliott. They mentioned at the top of the game that it was Murray’s first game calling with Nine.

At least they didn’t use the word ‘Blockbuster’, which gets SOO over used these days, and not just by Nine either.

I recall on Friday night, during 9 News Sydney football preview, they described the Sharks vs Dolphins game as a ‘blockbuster’ and even as a Sharks supporter, I shook my head (as they were sitting in 10th place before the game).
