Laurie cLark October 17, 2009	hello ilove listen to cricket and sport
akber lassi September 06, 2009	what is frequency of grandstand radio for cricket on sw.
Jon August 23, 2009	I'm in Australia and all I get is a long beep...
Shane Warne - not quite August 09, 2009	For good Ashes coverage try: http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/sport/commentaries/ ...... and click "listen', It's the same coverage we would receive in Australia, but via the BBC. Please enjoy.
Dissapointed part 5 and final August 08, 2009	At least I am getting the BBC radio broadcast as I type this. All the best fellow cricket lovers. Go the Aussies!!!
Dissapointed part 4 August 08, 2009	From this conversation it was obvious that no one at the ABC routinely monitors the online signal. Pretty poor ABC. Get your act together!
Dissapointed part 3 August 08, 2009	The technician tested the signal from his computer while I was on the phone & confirmed the Richard Stubbs program was not being broadcast (streamed online) at the time.
Dissapointed part 2 August 08, 2009	It's possible the ABC technicians haven't 'plugged' in the signal or thrown the switch. I have experienced this in the past on ABC 774 Melbourne - the Richard Stubbs program at least 2 or 3 times. I called the station & they didn't seem to be aware of it.
Dissapointed August 08, 2009	I updated Windows Media Player & Real Player, still NO ABC Cricket coverage. Just that annoying empty signal. But I found a good coverage on: http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/sport/commentaries/ ....... with an Aussie commentator and other familiar voices.
Dissapointed August 08, 2009	Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep It's not working for me. Yet? What the!
chunder August 07, 2009	http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r5lsp.asx
JF August 02, 2009	Can't hear anyhting but the aforementioned beeeeeeepppp! Grandstand, Blandstand Bah!
Brett July 20, 2009	I'm running Firefox 3.5 on Debian, the ABC stream is completely broken, and the BBC one works with one click. Nice work, Aunty.
hi July 19, 2009	www.e07329.tk
Jack July 17, 2009	Crap link. Bloody former England skipper club on TV and the long beep here./> Not good enough ABC!
Sam July 16, 2009	This is stoopid, it doesnt work. Why cant there just be a big link saying "LISTEN HERE" poo to you grandstand
Deborah July 16, 2009	And it's the same for the Second Test at Lord's: 1 kHz tone on ABC Grandstand. Bless you Nathan; the BBC link works wonderfully, even on the iPod Touch with WunderRadio.
Murray Baxter July 16, 2009	wow, check this link out .... http://pulse.timesonline.co.uk/pulse/times/#game Shame ABC, shame, beaten by Brits, thats gotta hurt.
Murray Baxter July 16, 2009	Thanks for the BBC link, good know the brits can still get it right!
Murray Baxter July 16, 2009	spend 30 mins in ussless link searching and the beep? Get it together and post a BIG LISTEN LIVE LINK that WORKS not a bunch of OLD info no one wants!!!! its OUR abc!
JG July 12, 2009	BBC link that Nathan kindly provided is working fine for me - digital ABC Grandstand not working at all and I'm in Melbourne.
Peter Robinson July 11, 2009	Where is the cricket!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doesn't work!
Sam July 11, 2009	ABC Grandstand ((8pm EST) says "listen to cricket on digital on internet" as football on ABC Local stations. Bu..ered if I can find it - Going to bed.
Paul C July 10, 2009	Still Doesn't work
dave July 10, 2009	doesnt work
Nathan July 09, 2009	Try the BBC, http://www.bbc.co.uk/fivelive/sport/commentaries/?sportsextra Of course come back to Grandstand when they fix the long contiuous beep.
big billybong July 08, 2009	loud beep its fucked abc fix it please my missus got tv come on quick f yas
gareth July 08, 2009	Yes extreme disapointment that one can't listen to the cricket online from europe, Im in Holland and can't find a bar that is showing it, and also can't stream online.I always hear of overseas listeners when I'm tuning in in oz? how are they accessing it?
Chris July 08, 2009	Streaming is broken.. one long beep!!
Geoff July 08, 2009	Just continuous beeeeeeeeeeeep!
Silly Point July 08, 2009	This service is hopeless! I can't even access the commentary! It just keeps making this beeping sound. Please help!?
Kp Anas July 02, 2009	East or west RICKY is the best!!!!!!!! AUSSIES should be white wash the ASHES
Mark in Korea July 02, 2009	How are people overseas planning to listen to the Ashes if the ABC does not let us? Has anybody got any tips? This is my first prolonged stay overseas from Australia. regards Mark
fineleg May 04, 2009	It's good to see watsons back again ,'will he last until the end of the ashes.?
wolfey from rockhampton,qld March 10, 2009	well,now that the aussies have won series over in SA,we don't seem to hear the "past cricketters" saying how good ponting and his boys are now,but by crickey they all had a say when they were losing....good on you ricky and the boys,well done,make it 3-0
andrew March 06, 2009	why is the cricket australia website not working
John from Bangkok February 28, 2009	Forget the ABC. I live in Bangkok. Instead I go to Radio 2000 in South Africa (www.radio2000.co.za) and click listen live. You get Sth African English commentary but at least you get it!
tabsey February 26, 2009	The widget is available to iGoogle users from the iGoogle site. Still no spinner. Nothing has been right with spin since they all went to NSW and Crazy had to go to Tassie to get a game.
billie February 12, 2009	maybe try the icon that suits where you want to the widget to go? e.g. google toolbar but i think you have to have an account for it to be placed on there and for you to have the ability to access it. not very user friendly
Simon February 09, 2009	What do I do with this "widget". Dont' see any instructions for instaling it !!! SeemPretty clumsy if I have to download it each time.
Liam February 08, 2009	@Shaun, put your trousers back on... I suspect the ABC policy of not broadcasting outside of Australia is a broadcast rights issue. Just the same as I can't listen to live streaming of English Premier League games courtesy of the BBC.
Matt February 05, 2009	Bring Hauritz up the order!!
Tragic January 17, 2009	I took this job in India on the assumption I could hear Skull over the internet.
Shaun Deer in Bangkok January 16, 2009	WHAT CAN I SAY? ABC GRANDSTAND's POLICY OF NO STREAMING OUTSIDE AUST IS NOT ONLY A DISCRACE. DEFEATS 1OF THE FLIPPING PURPOSES OF THIS SERVICE. MY RADIO CANT PICK UP oz STATIONS FROM BAngkok AND SHAME ON THE COMMENTATORS FOR ALOOWING THIS ALSO.
Steve January 06, 2009	Ok so Ponting has made some questionable decisions lately but u blame him he has had a lack of fit players in lee and symonds and two newbies playing so really can we blame selectors for our poor form
Jack January 05, 2009	works fine for me :)
joepower January 05, 2009	I think if SK Warne had a little less conspicuous private life he may have been a great Australian captain. If he decided to make a comeback for the Ashes series I would back him for the captaincy. If he decided to make a comeback...
Adam Mac January 05, 2009	When is the scg gunna let us in for cheap tickets for the afternoon... I'd love to leave work at 4 and see the last 2 hrs..???
ozzie in moura January 05, 2009	im glad skull is on radio, nice work keep it up .
Ali January 05, 2009	Ponting's problem is that he has been part of a very successful for such a long time he has really never had to "captain" per say. Now he has to prove to everyone why he was chosen in the first place. For once he actually has to use his brain.
joepower January 05, 2009	He probably should have had a third man in, and thought about bowling Clarke or Katich occasionally. But really, would Clarke have done any better. No. Thats my point. Ponting is the best captain we've got right now.
joepower January 05, 2009	Ok, so Ponting made a few strange decisions. But you can't just sack a guy like Ponting. Think about the psychological implications of that.
Wilko January 05, 2009	Hey Joepower Jane is spot on and I guess some idiots haven't been paying attention for replacement Captains. Errrrrrrrrrr...ever heard of Michael Clarke?
jockstrap January 04, 2009	Hey joepower, I agree wih Jane, I think Mr Ponting is starting to crack a bit under pressure with some poor desicions.............lets just hope he doesnt do a Kim Hughes
jockstrap January 04, 2009	why not just sack em all and bring Australia A side in, they cant do any worse??????????
Alfred January 04, 2009	Erm, how is this supposed to work? It downloads but then is not available.
adam January 04, 2009	what's happened to tait?
Chris January 02, 2009	Sorry but how do I save to my desktop? Or a home page?
rob December 30, 2008	whats happened to nathan bracken
Chappy December 29, 2008	In 2008 AUS has not lost a test when we scored 400+ in any innings, so why not strengthen the batting? Especially with Klinger, Hughes, Rogers in great form. Why the desperation with an allrounder at 6, previous No6s incl Martyn, M Clarke, Hussey.
joepower December 29, 2008	Jane - you say lets drop ponting as captain? Who would replace him? Jane, I'm sorry but you're an idiot.
Faithful December 29, 2008	If everyone is so keen to drop Hayden, how about he goes to 6??
Josh December 29, 2008	Given the loss of experience with Lee, Symonds and maybe Haydon not playing in Sydney, what about Brad Hodge at 6?
Dave December 28, 2008	Does Australia need to bring in another quick for the next test? If they dropped Symmons for Watson they could bring in a second spinner for Sydney maybe.
Jane December 28, 2008	Lets get rid of PONTING as captain.
Poor Old Henry December 28, 2008	Is Australia playing test cricket with a one day mentality, particularly in relation to patience and shot selection? Has our team forgotton the meaning of 'test' and 'paitence' and 'waiting for the right moment'?
Poor Old Henry December 28, 2008	If there was a mercy rule in cricket, then right now it should be offered to Australia. From spring steel to tissue paper in resilience terms it seems.
Poor Old Henry December 28, 2008	Does Australia have a cricketing death wish? Is it time for Mathew Hayden to depart the scene?
Henry Gray December 28, 2008	It seems that the sun is setting on the cricketing fortunes of Australia, as it rises on the cricketing future of South Africa. It��s almost official that Australian Test Cricket, is on the wane.
John December 28, 2008	What has happened to Nathan Bracken? Why his he not in contention to replace Lee?
Chris December 28, 2008	Please note, due to rights issues, this service is not available to users outside Australia. The ABC has streaming rights only within Australia. This is provided on the ABC website...
Chris December 28, 2008	I have no problem listening to the excellent commentary provided by ABC Grandstand! Cricket is excellent by the way, great listening.
Lisa December 28, 2008	I am un able to listen to the cricket via the internet as everytime I get a recorded message saying that the service is is experincing technical problems. This has been happing since Australia was playing in India. Help?????
Andrew Wright December 27, 2008	When in Australia you often here the ABC commentary team stating that cricket is been streamed live around the world. Obviously I live on another planet, (I live in Thailand) I can not listen to the cricket via Internet. Shame ABC Shame.............
Doug from the Scrub December 27, 2008	You may also like to try http://blogs.abc.net.au/grandstand/cricket/ I prefer to use this than the 'Cricket Kit'
SLJP December 25, 2008	i agree with Conan. I'm Tokyo. It's so gay - can't get a feed. It just says "australian IP's only". What a load of hogwash! Anyone in australia could watch it on TV or listen to the radio, but they limit the internet feed to oz ip's.
Conan December 25, 2008	this is a disgrace!!! i am i norway i want to listen to the boxing day test, but i can't!! i ahve downloaded the widget and i still can't commentary. this is absolutely pathetic.
manjender singh dhilon December 20, 2008	i love abc radio cricket commentry . i listen in newzealand whenever it is available.
Andrew December 19, 2008	Absolutely no probs
kaitalex 22 December 18, 2008	at least they havn't got brayshaw commentating, now all they need is a free beer site
Doug December 17, 2008	Mmmmmmmmm, seems that we have some technophobes.
Shaneo December 16, 2008	I wonder if any overseas users have had success utilising an Australian Proxy server?
Theo December 16, 2008	4) If you are trying to listen from work, your office might have a firewall that blocks the feed, so give up or go ask your manager/IT dude to allow you access... it'd be "unAustralian" to say no!
Theo December 16, 2008	3) You can copy the code into the script of any html page that you manage and you should get the player. But if you knew this you wouldn't be having a problem in the first place... ;)
Theo December 16, 2008	2) The player can be embedded in one of the services linked to in the "get and share" box. You need to be a member of (say) blogger or facebook, or have an iGoogle homepage to click and use this
Theo December 16, 2008	A couple of point for those having trouble with this. 1) As it states above: "Please note, due to rights issues, this service is not available to users outside Australia. The ABC has streaming rights only within Australia." So give up if this is you.
Robert December 08, 2008	Aussies living in the States are screwed!! We have to pay to listen and watch cricket over here. Has anyone heard of a free way around the nonsense outside Oz??
tom December 06, 2008	so got it onto my iGoogle page no probs, but echoing Max from E Timor, how am I supposed to hear this in Singapore when it won't play for users outside Australia - what's the point supposed to be? Is anyone from ABC reading this?
confused December 01, 2008	anyone who got it to work want to let the rest of us know how? PS wouldn't change the nickname to grandma - they always seem to know everything!!
Ian November 30, 2008	How come I can't add it to my MySpace page?
Max - East Timor November 29, 2008	Why do they state grandstand/global on their web page and then advertise "listen where ever you like" for the widget, when the text above states "Not available outside Australia". Am I missing something?
domdom November 29, 2008	I agree with Micheal! Go with Google!!!
Michael1964 November 28, 2008	What are you whinging Wally's on about - I just installed this on my Google home page with two clicks - seems to work, too!
Richard November 27, 2008	It's much easier to listen to the same commentary on line through the NZ radio stations!
Glenn, Empire Bay November 27, 2008	what a trek to get here???...finally listening on line wwooohhooo, did they have this up for the tests in India, i couldn't find anything and even rang the ABC.....they offered no alternative.....so who had the rights??
Chappo November 27, 2008	2000 views, only 12 installs - a take-up rate of 0.6%. Shows the lack of advice on how to get the damn thing working. Archaic approach to customer service and ICT! Change ABC's nickname from Aunty to Grandma.
stkildajimmy November 26, 2008	I get nothing, which is a crying shame because as you know, you guys would have had a direct way to communicate with me via my desktop. and now I'm not going to bother with it again. 'Cmon ABC,. aren't you supposed to be leading the way here in Aus?
Russell November 23, 2008	Do we need something installed on our PC before we can use this. Like a widget framework from ClearSpring perhaps? IE8 crashes when I try to install this, and Google Chrome doesn't seem to do much. Installation instructions might have been usful.
jennie_jo November 21, 2008	probably needed to expand ... would really like to be able to send an email to the commentary team from this page - with the email address automatically inserted, for those of us who don't know it.
jennie_jo November 21, 2008	would like to be able to send an SMS or email from this page
Geoff November 21, 2008	Do you guys realise that dumbass idiot who set this up actually got paid for it! Surely, the clowns could have had a test run first to see if this gr8 scheme actually works. Come on ABC...........get real
bathmatt November 21, 2008	have copied to clip board now what????
david November 21, 2008	is hayden retired
Chris November 21, 2008	Sorry but how do I save to my desktop? Or a home page?
Kerry November 20, 2008	Works great, now I can listen whilst I work and run to the tv when a wicket falls.....
Theo November 20, 2008	Works fine for me in my iGoogle page...
Bertie November 20, 2008	Be blowed if I can get anything. Click on Windows Media and nothing happens. Gee I am disappointed.
Darren November 20, 2008	Why is there no sound when I try to get the commentary on the internet - trying both windows media and real player. I get other ABC radio channels online (such as news radio) as well as other stations such as SEN, but the grandstand one has no sound.
