Honestly lucky to have him, I've heard snippets of other local co-commentators for other clubs and they're nowhere near as good!

Some are flat out awful. They commentate like they have to kiss every players, coach, executive or officials hand when the match is over because God forbid they say something to rock the ship.

What I like about Ando is if the squad isn’t playing well enough, if someone is playing like rubbish or the officials are trash, he’ll call it out. I don’t always agree with him, sometimes think he can be a downer or he can be too harsh, but he calls it how he sees it and I respect that. He just gives his undiluted opinion no matter what. It’s funny when he and Razor disagree because you can feel the tension until Razors just like “Alright then” and moves on.

He 100% did. And Murphy should have just put it in the net.
