You are describing my least favourite TV commentator: James Brayshaw. He’s completely incurious about everything. Kills me that they always pair him with Ponting.

I like Ponting as you learn a lot when he’s on. Though must admit I didn’t listen to him this year as Kayo/Fox better with no ads and better overall team I think.

Brayshaw was one of those in my mind when posting. Embarrassing. One of the main reasons I watch Fox. Can just imagine him salivating over the size of Mitch Marsh as if he’s playing footy. “Oh the Bison, he’s a huge human” etc.

Why is Fox a full 30 secs behind Live Action ?

Yeah, i reckon Ponting is the best on any channel. Brayshaw is equal worst alongside Dirk Nannes on radio. If either of them was a woman people would complain that they only got the job because they were 1) a dyke, 2) a ball-breaking bitch, or 3) slept their way there. Seems that being a good bloke will take you far….

Perfect, you have just named my two least favourite commentators. Brayshaw the bull-horn and Ponting the never-shuts-up. Thank God for the mute when these two are on.

JB and JL. "Punter" should have had a training course with Richie. Too much talking dilutes the better parts.
