Foxtel will continue to use longstanding callers Anthony Hudson, Dwayne Russell, Howard and Kelli Underwood and Perth-based Adam Papalia. Special commentary for games will be provided by Lyon, Buckley, Brown and a range of other decorated ex-players including Jason Dunstall, Gerard Healy, David King, Alastair Lynch (Queensland), Jordan Lewis, Nick Dal Santo, Mark Ricciuto (Adelaide), Matthew Pavlich (Perth), Brad Johnson and Cameron Mooney.
Foxtel, which broadcasts 5½ games per round compared with free-to-air broadcaster Seven’s 3½ matches, will also use Collingwood AFLW stars Chloe Molloy and Ruby Schleicher to provide expert comments.
