      @nta Right now it's Mark Howard, Mike Hussey, and some absolute fuckwit called Kerry O’Keeffe. Come across as three smug dickheads. Really unprofessional.

        Yep, we have Kerry O'Keefe already trying to relive his non-glory days of the 70's, and it hadn't even reached the first drinks session...

            England 24/3 at drinks after 12 over. Root out for a duck. Nightmare start for England. Australia bossing it.

                29/4. England will struggle to make it to triple figures.

                        @tim I thought that was quite funny (and true) 😉

                        Mark Howard is appalling. Hussey is boring. Warne and Mark Waugh are terrible.

                        Brendan Julian and Border are the best Fox have ever had

                          All of the above, plus he's not always as funny as he thinks. When it's the first hour of the Ashes in 2021, and you're on air claiming you could bowl out Glenn Turner with a soggy tomato, the shark has been well and truly jumped.

                              Back when I started playing at the Gabba, tin was what you used for making things.

                              Thought it was more like bark in your day, Kerry.

                              HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

                              Big laughs all round in the Fox commentary box today.

                              Pitiful.

                                      They obviously couldn't find any tomatoes in this game, but should've look harder. KOK didn't even get a bowl and Turner made two hundreds.
