Yeah finished an hour ago here in Victoria. I'm impressed in what I'm seeing from Channel 7 so far. Can't wait for Adelaide.

I was impressed with v8 extra. A little rough around the edges, but it will get better as the year goes on. Still lacks a little personality (in the opening titles etc) Camera work/editing is textbook ch10 coverage.

My opinion so far:
V8 Xtra 8/10
Channel 7's commitment 9/10
Rick Kelly's mullet 10/10

Not sold on the commentary yet, Crompton will be fine but his co-commentators may be dragging the chain for a while to come. If its anything like the Footy was last night it will be a shambles, absolute rubbish IMO. Lets hope not.
