- Brian Taylor could not resist Jab in the rival network
- The War of the Folle broadcasting broke out again
The veteran commentator Footy Brian Taylor took a cheeky blow at Rival Network Fox Sports during the broadcast by Channel Sevens of the Adelaide Crows vs Port Adelaide Showdown in Adelaide Oval on Sunday.
Taylor, known for his non -filtered jokes, could not resist stirring the pot on Sunday, triggering a new chapter in the current diffusion wars.
During the first trimester, Taylor dropped the not so subtle excavation to Fox.
“It’s good to be here at the Adelaide oval,” he said live.
“The only radiudiffusers really on the ground.
The comment was a clear excavation to the fact that Fox Footy was broadcasting from a studio.

Taylor, known for his non -filtered jokes, stressed that seven made their comment as Adelaide Oval – Unlike Fox Sports
The remark did not go unnoticed by football fans, who went to social networks to publish on this subject.
“I love it, bt go whack,” posted an X user.
“Good call. Can always say when the commentators are just in the studio, ” replied another.
Other football fans were not disturbed that commentators were not really in the game.
One of them posted: “I couldn’t care if Fox Footy was in North Korea if it meant not listening to BT.
Another sounded: “So Fox uses their commentators and their money more judiciously.”
Taylor, who played 140 games for Richmond and Collingwood between 1980 and 1990, recently risked getting angry by his own bosses by declaring that he thought that fans could do without a third of the current football shows – including those of his own network, which made a huge investment in AFL panel shows.
“In the past 10 years, we have said:” I have had money to do a Sunday football show or something “and they have done” No, no, there is no money to find “,” said Taylor on the podcast Brian Life of Brian.
Seven spent big on their AFL coverage for 2025
“Suddenly, we have 15 shows, one every hour of the day. So, it’s weird, the competition is red, the AFL must be seated by licking their lips and saying that this is what we want.
“AFL’s complete coverage can not be better than it is right at the moment. It’s amazing.
The comments are at a sensitive time for seven, the broadcaster investing strongly in AFL discussions this season while it broadcasts the settles of the agenda, not filtered, of the additional time, of the Sunday football feast, the call of Kane and washing.
Fox is broadcast AFL 360, on the sofa and AFL tonight, with nine offering a classified football and the Sunday Footy Show.
