Press Red for Ed

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

Are people serious when they are saying that Eddie is bias with his commentating and that he shouldn't be allowed to do Collingwood games?!
IT'S PRESS RED FOR ED, which means it's meant to be unashamedly supportive of the the pies, to give the viewer the feel (if they are pies fans) of watching the game with their mates etc.

Perks of being the biggest club in the league.

No problem with that, but do you think it should be forced on all people who want to watch the replay, especially those who don't support the Pies? All replays are listed as the Ed version.

Fox Footy are idiots.

I've enjoyed all of these in the past, not as much as today of course.

The point is it's a Collingwood broadcast, it's meant to be one eyed.

The Richmond version with KB was hilarious last year when they blew a 7 goal lead v a the Kangaroos.

Every team should get a go.

Yeah they shouldn't replay this version every time.

Their walkout at the end was gold, and seemed genuine and spontaneous. The one they did yesterday was clearly orchestrated.

I agree that other teams should get a run.

[Chris 2,892]

Now everything is the umps fault. Hahahahahaha

[MrMoose 261]

Eddie at half time - "We've let Melbourne have an 11 point lead!" HAHAHAHAHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

It was a Collingwood Eddie commentary session, of course it was totally biased. I'd love to see a Melb one when we win. It would be hilarious.

so how the hell do you turn it off then ( thats if you can)

he is so bloody bad, but now i understand thank you

[mollydee 22]

I ,for one, will be contacting Foxtel, The AFL, and the MFC tomorrow to complain. It is offensive that every replay of the game this week has this rubbish as commentary. Imagine if this was done to Collingwood on one of their wins

I couldn't watch the game yesterday and am currently being forced to watch it without any choice about Red Eddie and the other clowns. I've phoned Foxtel (no complaints allowed on weekends apparently) and tried to complain electronically but they don't allow complainants enough words to say anything coherent. I'll have to wait till tomorrow but I'm furious. There's some sh*t you get used to living in the country, but this is one dunny too many for me.

[Mazer Rackham 14,969]

Press Red for Ed is self-indulgent and undisciplined. Looked at another way, it's childish. Shouldn't those people be above that? What happened to the idea that the commentary should be straight and objective. If I was a Foxtel subscriber I'd go off my nut thinking that my subs were paying for Eddie's gang's tripe.

Having said that I turn off the commentary on TV for any game that I watch. And listen to the radio if there's no other option.

[Deestroy All 14,262]

"What is this, gridiron??"

lol

[markc 975]

mind you now I know why , its funny

listening to some of the quotes

[Skuit 9,194]

Don't know why people are complaining. This is the best replay I've ever watched. And we get to listen to Eddie whine for the entire week.

[Uncle Fester 2,835]

Did Ed go red is the real question. I love it when he gets frustrated / angry and his head turns into a beetroot. I half expect him to explode one day when it is suggested that Collingwood might not be the greatest team in the history of world sport.

[Matt Demon 1,387]

Just record the game live, if we lose delete it from your planner. Doesn't everyone do this?

Are you joking? Talk about the age of outrage lol

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

This is hilarious, Eds losing his [censored], and replaying Ed press red whatever it is is like a constant replay of embarrassment for mcchins, love it

Was considering starting a new thread for this, but it might as well go here:

If we had a "press red for dees" match on Foxtel, who would we as supporters want the commentary team to be?

So far I've only come up with... Garry Lyon, David Schwarz... Dr. Turf? Gets a bit thin about there.

You'd need some comedy in there, so maybe Hamish Blake or Ryan Shelton?

Rob Sitch probably wouldn't stoop to it.

It would be great to have a Max Gawn on the field and another in the commentary box.

[DemonOX 8,540]

Listening to this is farkin hilarious.

Nearly every call is high from a Melb player or holding the ball against a Melb player etc

It's very entertaining but only cause we won.

Would be unbearable if we lost to listen to these bozos.

Everyhing is a disgrace or an outrage nowadays. And that's the just the right wing's opinion.

There might be some contractual issues, especially with Lyon.

Ox definitely if you could get him. First picked.

I'd love to have Mike Sheahan in there. To actually hear what he's like when barracking would be priceless.

Brett Anderson from Sen/Inside footy is a mad Demon.

[Skuit 9,194]

Titus O'Reilly and Supermercado. The only way a likely loss would be tolerable.
