Critics Review
“It’s actually quite good.” - Daniel Vettori
“It does concern me how much I enjoy the ACC banter — they just bring a new energy that genuinely makes watching sport more enjoyable.” — Kieran ‘Eye Sockets’ Read

“I’d like to distance myself as far away as possible from the contents of this book.” – Jason Hoyte
About The Author
The Alternative Commentary Collective
What began in 2013 as an alternative commentary for the 2013⁄14 summer of cricket, The Alternative Commentary Collective (ACC) is now a multi-sport, multi-platform media behemoth, gathering a group of broadcasters, comedians and entertainers who love sport and bring a fresh, and often controversial, element to sports coverage. Led by Mike Lane and Jeremy Wells, and part of the New Zealand Media and Entertainment stable, The ACC is now arguably the biggest (and most complained-about) sports entertainment brand in New Zealand.
