/end rant.
When you rewatched...did you see the second hard tackle by prespakis on Hosking? She went off soon after that from memory.
I could not agree more. I always turn the sound off when she commentates. Dreadful commentator.

Probably the best expert-comments commentator, male or female, is Daisy Pearce. Very knowledgeable and concise.

Daisy is OK, and several AFLW players, Lauren Arnell for one, are pretty good. However, the likes of Parkin, Matthews and Malthouse are hard to go past.
Gilbert Macadam provides a different perspective and I think that Tony Armstrong will forge a great media career.
However, none of that detracts from the fact that Kelli doesn’t understand AFL rules, is inaccurate with her commentary, sensationalises incidents, creates her own narrative that doesn’t reflect reality, passes judgement on matters beyond her understanding, and has a grating voice.

That's tackle by the Nthmond MC, to make sure that nobody misses the Sarah tackle.
