I thought I was the only one who turned on the footy, turned the sound off and put radio commentary on.

I struggle with it every year actually. I find the delay annoying, but the drivel from the TV presenters reminds me why the sound is off. ABC Grandstand for me normally.

I thought it was the opposite and that you need something to delay your tv I think, since ABC radio is a few seconds delayed.

Edit: you could probably do it with a DVR, record while watching, pause for a few seconds, play again.

I think with the digital TV the TV's usually delayed to the point where I can get scores spoiled by Twitter.

It's not like they have to put radio on delay just in case Gerard Whateley breaks out the blue.

The reply from the Australian distributor of sportsync was surprising:

quote:

Hi ewe2

The short answer is no I don't stock the SR 202.

I had so many recalls and failed 101's that I wasn't prepared to work
with that company again. I have been negotiating with a manufacturer in China but they are setting a minimum buy of 3000 units and clearly that number is way too high for the Australian market..
If any thing changes I will let you know but for now a 16 second delay radio does not look promising.

I do have stocks of a more reliable and far better 8 second delay which is covers the delay in some areas of Australia.
Sorry I am not able to be of more help

Cheers, etc

So I'll inquire about the 8 second delay one and get back to you guys. Normally the delay isn't more than 5 seconds here in Victoria, so it might work for me.

I was raised on the dairy, BITCH!
On the topic of the sports sync radio, I have one and it does an ok job.
The biggest issue I have with it is that when you delay the radio it sounds like absolute shite.
There is no stereo sound and the commentary sounds like it's a bunch of blokes shouting into a mic from the other end of a warehouse!

This is a good guide for people who might want to give this a try and not buy the radio.

Gonna be rough but I spose that's what this competition is for. Will be interesting seeing Howe as full-forward (I'm assuming). Who else will be there? Gawn? I know Roos said Pederson will probably play down there.

Yeah Gawn and Howe almost certainly, Pederson unfortunately quite probable.

Can't imagine they would stick Watts down there since it would interfere with his midfield run.

Also I really hope Frawley doesn't leave. Frawley, Garland, Mcdonald down back and Clark, Hogan, Howe up front is in theory one of the better lineups in the league imo, just needs a passable midfield to support it and theres the rub.
