Matt Nable promo for Eels match

I like the 'timber' in his voice.
Apparently he writes the copy so he is a lot smarter than the average ex-footballer.
 
am i going mad or have they changed the track in the promo. It was a Queen soundtrack wasn't it and now its just a bog standard one? must have been copyright issues...
 
I love the fact that FOX rates us with the big boys and deemed worthy of intros.
You can tell Matt loves it too.
 
Love Matt Nable's work for Fox promos.

I tell you who is a punish though, Matt Thompson who commentates for 9. A real shocker.
Yeah, I heard an interview with him on the fifth and last podcast, he seems like a decent bloke, but his commentary is terrible.

I remember when he first started and Jorge dropped one early in the game but held the rest of them but every time they bombed him Thompson said "he's having a problem with his hands tonight", it's as if he wasn't even watching the game.

It was the Queen song 'Don't stop me know'. I recorded it when they played it on 360 the other night. That's a shame if they changed it.

Most, if not all, of the commentary is being done from a studio via a TV screen so it must be a lot more difficult without witnessing the full spectacle and feeling the atmosphere.
When you have to rely on information from the ground from those Queensland nit-wits it makes it close to impossible.

They have unfortunately and whats even more crazy is they have gone back and re-edited the 360 version online to the non Queen song.

Must be a copyright issue to go to that length.
 
I liked his book "we don't live here anymore" - it had a northern beaches vibe and a family who were descended from a league superstar, and had trouble living up to the standard.
