  2. Look forward to it Ed always does a good job,and CraigW Ed did not call any Collingwood games last year on Fox Footy,and this year will be the same

  3. To me Eddie is the Kyle Sandilands of the AFL. He loves to be heard, but not many of us want to listen to what he has to say. I’ll be passing on the pre and post game coverage.
