Press Red for Ed

Featured Replies

I have just rang Foxtel to make a complaint about Ed commentating on the replays.

Got a charming young lad who sympathised with my plight.

Was told to Email Feedback@fox sport.com.au and all feedback will be replied to or

go to their facebook page....Foxsport/aus.....If many people complain...they will change it.

I to wanted to keep this taped game but will be ditching it if this afternoons replay is still the Eddie version

I will email them now.

 

I wish there was a button where you could see Ed's head explode....

Scanners ManDee?

I have emailed them and commented on their Facebook page on sunday morning and have had no response. I don't expect to get one either. Completely insulting.


I might phone The Ox this afternoon on SEN 1116 and get on my Soapbox. See if we can drive a campaign to get Foxtel to do something hahaha.

They're no longer advertising it's the press red for ed version at 5:13 tonight - fingers crossed!

I faxed foxtel, will wait to see if they listen to paying customers.

Sorry - I don't remember the 1990's very well - what's a fax machine? :)

If you have a smartphone download the Foxtel Guide app - you can hit record from wherever you are as long as you and the foxtel box are connected to the internet

I meant emailed.

Yeah,recording it now,good to see someone from Fox Footy reads Demonland!

Will be watching this version quite a bit over the Summer with a few Frothies

Well done Fox Footy.


I pagered them.

i wanted to roger them......but couldn't be bothered when i realised i didn't have foxtel

They listened to us!! They have ditched Ed, 5 o'clock replay is now just the normal woeful commentary team

Yoo Hoo we did it ! Stuff Eddie and stuff Collingwood !

I only changed to Ed during the game every now and again.

It was ridiculously childish, whining about the umpiring and the booing when we were kicking for goal.

I felt embarrassed for them.

I would have thought Ed himself would have pulled it. Surely he is embarrassed by that performance.

Daicos was O.k and at least tried to be rational. left Melbourne alone and just talked about Collingwood.

Tony Shaw should never see the inside of a commentary box again. He was boring, ranting, objectionable and by my count (I didn't really) thought the free kick count should have been 68 to 0. He was terrible

Peter Hellier hadn't done any homework for the job and thought he might get by with his casual wit, and clearly didn't. Had one joke repeated 7 times about the "Straunie" pocket.

I watched the last quarter and a half of the Press Red replay on Foxtel yesterday and loved it. It was gold when all they could do each time we had a shot for goal was go 'miss...miss'.

I did also watch the full replay with the normal commentary on AFL TV last night. There's a lot of love for Jesse, Maxy and Angus Brayshaw from the commentators. Vanders gets the big tick too.

The best part about the miss miss miss thing was that it worked 3 or 4 times, then the captain steps up and goes boom! and shows them how it's done. Sorry fellas, it's not Cotchin, Jones doesn't miss those.

Make that the normal woeful commentary team plus Huddo.

EDIT: For me it was always a non-issue, since I record all our games and then delete them after we’ve lost. This week there was no need though, since we won.

Edited by Chook

Even Huddo sounds brilliant. I have done the Eddie thing which ranges from tedious to occasionally funny to mostly crappy. The normal commentary is a breath of fresh air. Congrats to those who heavied Fox.

Replaying the Melbourne vs Collingwood game in the lead to Roos vs Buckley on 360 is a good move. I don’t usually watch these Monday night shows, but I might do the rounds this week. I’m prepared for a lot of Richmond coverage though….

So funny little thing for them to set up, but not impressed that their first replay available after the match had "red for ed" commentary. Have it during the match, and then advertise the replay for the week but all other replays should've had the proper commentary.

The reason why I'm not happy about it is that it was the replay I've recorded to watch. Ah well, winners are grinners and Eddie can please himself!

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
