Press Red for Ed

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.

    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

    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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
