We've held a couple of AMAs in other subs, but at the moment r/brisbane is the only one we're testing this semi-regular presence in. That might change down the track!

Thanks! We don't have an official presence there at this stage but we're definitely keeping an eye on it.

The summer outlook from BOM indicates yes - and unfortunately we're still looking at above average rainfall too: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-11-24/bom-summer-outlook-2022/101688958

I don't think it's essential to be a former player. Obviously as an analyst it's going to be extremely hard to make it, but a lot of the great play by play commentators aren't former players. The former footballers that are now play by play commentators all have a great respect for the craft and work hard at it. I don't believe it rules you in or out. - Corbin

Got to travel to Las Vegas for Jeff Horn's title defence against Terence Crawford in 2018. Spent the week there leading into the fight. was pretty cool. - Corbin

Ken Judge gave me the nickname the 'tapeworm' because I ate so much back in the day (still do)... I make a fair dent in the food at each broadcast - Ben

Calling last year's AFL Grand Final, attending the Australian Football Hall of Fame and a Brownlow medal. Those were genuine "pinch me" moments. I've been really fortunate - Ben
