Change of commentary?

I don't have the time to go through all the topics (I should visit this place more!) so excuse me if this has already been brought up - but has Fred de Jong finally got the flick? I tuned in from my Melbourne TV at kickoff to hear Mike Cockerill, journalist and regular A-League commentator in Australia. I'm wondering if he has taken over the Wellington matches, was filling in for a day, or if we are getting separate coverage in Australia now to whoever usually does the broadcast there (TVNZ or Sky Sports?)

Apparently Freddy was on holiday in the South Island with the family (he wasn't on WoF on Monday night either), so expect to hear him again soon...

Shame, Mike was a big improvement (although it seemed to put Harry a bit ah ah ah off his game).

Fred was supposed to be there, but caught up on the way to the ground watching some grass grow.  Cockerill filled in at the last minute.
 
Edited for people who didn't know who Frank De Jong was (he is Fred's uncle by the way - owns a lawnmower business)

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
