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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    mind you now I know why , its funny

    listening to some of the quotes

    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.

  • Quote

    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.

    Are you joking? Talk about the age of outrage lol

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
