Howie is an excellent facilitator of test cricket commentary. Calls the ball, but also casts the spotlight on the legends in the box. Easy, interesting listening.
Agree
He’s really good at his job.
And then walks straight across to the Fox cricket booth!
The most important thing is he doesn't make it about himself
Agreed
This is quality. Love Tubby Taylor and could listen to him all day...
Tubby taylor gets a rough rap, he's a delight to listen to especially when he's in the sensible company.
Was a bit of a tool towards the end of 9's coverage. Over the top carrying on. So was Healy.
Also nicely done by Howie. Fast becoming one of the best interviewers in the business.
Right up there with Huddo
I was listening to this live on the radio. All these commentators have such fascinating stories. They commentate because they are cricket fans and just love the game. The addition of Andy Lee is a master-stroke.
Well said. And also, how good was it to hear 'Tubby' talking about Richie's advice after the "what a tragedy" call. Just goes to show that he was still willing to learn and accept feedback even after a successful playing career
Love hearing these stories, I wish 9 still had the cricket. It’s would have been amazing having Bill call Bolands spell in the 2nd innings.
9s commentary was pretty bad by the 2017/18 ashes
I miss Bill, but I don't miss constant ads for "The Block"
Hadn’t Bill pretty much retired by the time the cricket left nine.
@@donna25871 he had but would return for the MCG test.
I really wished nine had the rights to cricket. Nine needs to get the cricket back. The cricket doesn’t seem same on fox and seven.
I love this producers expressions in the back of all these videos. Absolutely humble to be in the room and loving every minute of it.
Love listening to passionate knowledgeable people. There are so few around. Ex sportmen. Tubby Taylor , Ian Chapelle , Ian Healy in cricket , Craig Foster for football.
So good! So enjoyable. Tubbs reminiscing. There are people over the world who will never know the joy that is cricket.
Great insight - well done Howie and Tubs
Tubby. A true Australian legend 🙏🏏🙏🦘🍻
Fantastic. What amazing memories of channel 9. Thank you Tub
Cricket on Channel 9 was just a quintessential part of my childhood. Me and my granddad parking our butts on the seats for the day every day during the summer, every summer, listening to Richie, Bill, Tony, Tubbs, Heals, Chappy, I'll never forget those days. Granddad passed away in late 2015 and even as an adult I'll always feel like a big kid watching the cricket, even thought Channel 7 is nowhere near as strong. Watching this getting to relive those days with Tubbs and Howie has been a blast!
Tubby’s been brilliant on MMM this summer. Love him!
What a likeable character, Tubby
Howie is fast forging a commentary legacy of his own, he's absolutely excellent. The Scott Boland "BUILD THE MAN A STATUE!" is already legendary and I'm sure there will be many more to add to that one.
I could listen to this stuff all afternoon
This is fantastic stuff. Thanks Triple M. The best.
I’m with mark taylor on the commentary of ch 9 back then when all the great legends of the com box were doing commentary in such nice and calm manner, I like those good old days commentary, I can listen to bill lowery , great tony , my favourite Richie Ben. , nowadays as mark t said too much noise in comm box , ps- sorry if I mispronounced or misspelled any name
I had to get out of the car when this chat was going on and I was devo, thanks for the upload guys
Tradegy that you missed it
I grew up watching cricket fanatically. Waking up as early as possible as a 3-4 year old and watching old tapes. Loved cricket up until I couldn’t play anymore as a teenager due to an eye condition. But over the years the thing that has really made me fall out with it was not having the whole channel 9 production behind it. I guess you could say I’m not a pure cricket fan. I just loved the way those old commentators sounded. And as Mark mentioned, or at least indirectly mentioned, the art is in what you don’t say. I still follow cricket now and love it but not like I used to. Miss the old days and I hope they can make it as great as it was again someday.
It's hard to see the stars aligning again to reproduce those amateur era stars. They played for love of the game in an era of full employment and low house prices. The modern world is less forgiving of dreamers.
Even the music for the channel 9 cricket coverage was the best. Along with ‘ Soul Limbo ‘ on the BBC. I miss Richie, Bill, Tony and Ian on commentary. Even though we didn’t get to watch and hear it that much in England. Especially before TH-cam and social media. We would get a bit of the coverage on a break for rain but that was about it.
How considerate were the England players, didn't play a stroke through that entire story so we weren't interrupted. Kudos England.
Howie you are an absolute master of your craft👍
Amazing piece, triple M.
Genuinely brilliant content!
Wonderful interesting story thanks Tubby and Mark for that, such great radio and thanking MMM for hiring such good commentators.
I love when he says oh ho what a ripper
I wholeheartedly agree with Richie regarding the use of the word “Tragedy”. Also when commentators refer to a batter “paying the ultimate price” for an error and lose their wicket.
th-cam.com/video/vSpBOYzoKyk/w-d-xo.html oh dear Richie
I remember watching a cricket documentary and Richie actually used the word tragedy in regards to a passage of play in a test match back in the 70’s I think it was!!
The sounds of summer, cicadas and RBs voice wafting on a summer seabreeze...
Dozing on the lounge only to be rudely snapped out of your slumber by the dulcet tones of a wicket taken called by Bill.
Nice to hear Tubs here and see Eth get a word in too 🙂
23 years of tears for cricket.
This is Gold. Awesome stuff
Tubby does some great impersonations.
My favorite Taylor line is
Sounds superb and it is superb, going live on the Gilchrist sixes of Panesar and Hoggard.
That's probably the first time I heard someone say those lines
This is a gem hearing all this
Maaaarrrkkk! Love this guy ❤
Richie was such a great commentator for a number of reasons - one of which was that he was an old-school journalist and knew how to report without over embellishing. Yet his method of delivery was always entertaining as well as informative.
Commentators these days use so many cliches and spout so much drivel. Mark has his own style, but he's always added to the vision and isn't one to (obviously) talk nonsense just to fill the silence.
Had the great mantra of "If you cannot add to what the viewer is watching, say nothing."
Mark Howard has my dream job! Howard is also fantastic. He brings life to the com box!
superb Howie and Mark Taylor
Mark Taylor was in commentary when Langer edged it through to Moin Khan in Hobart! Taylor called the HUGE inside edge!!! Umpire Parker robbed Pakistan of a famous win! HAHA! Always great listening to the great Mark Taylor!
No one except a few desperate Pakistan fans care.
Love ya tubby!!
How I wish to hear bill again on a Boxing Day test
Richie and Tony both complimented each other.....Richie was the quiet one and Tony was the excitable one.
It was normally Bill and Tony commentating together but I agree with you as well. Great comment. 👍👍
This is brilliant
Not sure who the guy in the background is, but he loving his job!!!
There is no better commentator than Tubby
Great Tony Greig impersonation
Thanks Kerry P.
Hey tubby it's Andy Bowen from Sydney you should look into joining the fox cricket team so all your fans can see you on TV again because there are fans that miss you calling the cricket from channel 9
Tubbs is Wagga's finest export.
Mark Taylor Greatest commentator ever after Tony Grieg
My favourite commenter Mark taylor
'You've done some amazing things as a cricketer..' some? Tubby is one of our all time best. Plamavizhun
I am watching this on boxing day 2022. Today we paid tribute to Shane Warne.
Mark mentioned his mistake of describing Warne getting out for 99 as a tradegy and being corrected by Ritchie.
Sadly Shane Warne has died and it is a tradegy.
Wonderful.
On this discussion, give me Richie Benaud's commentary every day of the week. Benaud's understatement let the moment speak for itself as opposed to Bill Lawry's OTT hyperventilation. Enojyed this discussion, but there is no comparison in quality of cricket knowledge of commentators of the past (Benaud, Lawry, Chappell, Greig) vs those of today (ie Fleming, Brayshaw). Fleming in particular can stick his Avenues of Apprehension, Boulevards of Bamboozlement and any other type of road where the sun don't shine! The sooner he is off the airwaves the better!
Prelude to the howie games podcast..
Of the crop that came to join Richie, Bill, Tony and 'Chappelli' at Nine, I didn't mind Mark Taylor. Ian Healy, Mark Nicholas and Michael Slater were woeful. I also like how 'Tubby' was a good sport when it came to Billy Birmingham's impersonations of him 😂
Agreed, except Healy's observations (as ex keeper) regarding field settings and bowler/captain tactics are pretty good. But he stuggles in everything else.
@@rocknralgood points. I enjoyed his 'Masterclass' segments on The Cricket Show back in the day. I just wish that when he was doing match commentary that he didn't waffle on so long and expect something to happen every single ball
@@aldpag88 same. I missed watching the cricket show. It was so much fun where they talk about tactics in bowling and batting.
No Geoff Boycott was way worse than the guys you mentioned. I think you will find what made those commentators you mention being not very good is down to channel 9 having 3 commentators in the box instead of two. Also I bet you grew up listening to the big 4 so when new commentators joined the coverage it was always going to be different and hard to get use to.
I cannot get use to channel 7 commentary at all. They may be good and most viewers may like their commentary but for me it doesn't feel like cricket no more.
8:55 I listened to the great story about Richie getting stroppy over Tub's "what a tragedy", then found Richie saying the exact same thing back in 1975 in this archival footage: th-cam.com/video/vSpBOYzoKyk/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/juwy2Xi5Qxg/w-d-xo.html oh dear Richie
I saw a documentary on cricket and I saw Richie saying that exact word!! It was in the 1970’s so it might be your footage!!
Mark Howard is OK but could learn from Richie who knew when to talk, but more importantly, when to zip it!
yeap! i've noticed he gossips and waffles on way too much in the foxtel commentary. Richie mastered the art of "less is more" with his commentary.
I agree with you but I think it's the way this tiktok world is going, we need constant stimulation
On dayboo
Benaud used the word "tragedy" often.
Yeah seems a dumb thing to complain about. Especially since many words are very contextual. A batting collapse could be called disasterous but so could an earthquake. Context makes all the difference.
as a 26 year old, Do not relate to that "noise" comment. In fact id pay extra for a commentatorless version of the game where its all game sounds and no shane warne
Sadly Warne was to pass less than 3 months after this comment 10:49
Telly Tubbie!
Can't wait until channel 9 gets the cricket back
It be a long wait. Foxtel will always have control of the rights so nine will try and out bid seven ie having more money to show the odis on free to air etc.
@@phil5208 Foxtel haven't always had the rights,but what gets me is the Foxtel is using there comontators on seven
@@peterbarber7613 what I mean when foxtel buys sport rights ie afl supercars they stay as the primary broadcaster for a long time.
@@peterbarber7613 foxtel simulcast their games with seven for tests and big bash that's why see the mixture of broadcasters
Same. When channel 7 and fox took the coverage I was bitterly annoyed. 7 did a terrible job at broadcasting cricket. Seven’s Cricket ratings have gone down the toilet due to the simulcast deal.
I think channel 9 should have the cricket back
Simon Odonell was an awesome presenter as well
17:12 I may be the exception, but I generally didn’t really like Richie Benaud’s commentary. Regarding Shane Warne’s “Ball Of The Century”, I think it would have added to the moment if there was more enthusiasm in the commentary. I preferred the excitement generated by Bill Lawry - “Got ‘im, knocked him over!” I also like Tubby, the excitement he showed in his commentary when Peter Siddle got his hat-trick made it more memorable for me.
I totally agree with that. His calling of the ball of the century was just so flat. He just said, "he's done it" and that was about it.
Great Captain of Australia cricket... painful to listen to as a commentator
Key word is bloke. Cricket coverage for lowest common denominator
Tubby bores me to ...

Wheres Alan McGilvray?
1999 and hobart and Langer knicked and never walked.
No he shouldn’t stop crying
What are you suggesting? If you get a lucky decision you need to correct the umpire and walk? I’d be happy with that only if when I get a bad call against me I can change that too.
@@tiborsol6376 exactly, thats what Ian chapel did too, in 1970s, to Holding too, and yet when Stuart Broad didnt walk after knicking, the bloody drunks called him a cheat.The hypocrisy..
Get over it mate, build a bridge. It was 21 years ago. Do you want a tissue?
@@alikhan-ri5ye Wah!, Wah!, Wah! You're a sook.
Triple m have a knack of hiring annoying commentators. Howard is another. I only see it on you tube and realise why I dont listen to them. Its woeful
Channel 7 is way better than channel 9. Channel 9 was male focussed commentary team. Channel 7 tries to appeal to women and lgbt and other minority groups. Channel 7 is way more woke which is what we want. Channel 9 was way more male focused which is isn’t good.
Lol
An effeminate male feminist. Well done! not only will women want nothing to do with you, either will men.... Only fans has gained another simp..
Lisa isn't too bad, but she isn't good either. I have to mute the tv everytime Isa (on Fox) talks.
Who in the name of Christ wants woke nonsense
@@SFTaYZa Tossers
"......involves someone passing away is a tragedy, Shane Warne didn't do that" How ironic that he says this considering what happened to him...... that indeed WAS a tragedy!!! RIP Warnie!
This commentary interview occurred before Warnie's death.
