Sports writers Ryan O’Connell and Brett McKay are joined (and put in their place) by former ABC Grandstand Cricket commentator Glenn Mitchell, in a bumper edition of the Cheap Seats podcast.
In Episode 25, Ryan enjoys Brett’s continued Twitter suspension perhaps a little too much, and Glenn, while revelling in a new broadcast career highlight, outlines where in the pecking order the boys sit in terms of expert commentary colleagues.
Episode 25 talking points:
– A comprehensive preview of the Second Ashes Test, including thoughts on the Australian XI and whether Ryan Harris should or shouldn’t be rested, the England XI and who should replace Jonathan Trott, and predictions of a likely result;
– Australia wins the RLWC;
– The Wallabies finish 2013 on a high;
– And this week’s Splash and Dash, including Israel Folau’s try scoring record, and a great line on Rory McIlroy’s Australian Open golf win.
Stay Cheap.

Nice work Macca, enjoyed it. Glenn is great value. Bit confused with Ryano's pereception of the Wallaby Tour. He mentioned he was disappointed, assuming he was referring to Twickenham only ?

That would've been less mysterious than the input I received from Twitter, Bearfax...

They call it temporal displacement Brett. You been watching Dr Who again?

Astute rugby listeners will note that I gave the Wallabies-Scotland score for the Wales match. I'm putting it down the Twitter suspension, which thankfully, mysteriously, was lifted this morning....

Unfortunately lads I can't read your discussion. Based on England's insane declaration at Adelaide in 2006, I reckon England will take a draw.
