Our readers that follow our live sport coverage will know Murraylands Football and Netball sporting results. Over the past two years we have partnered together to share our local cricket and football around the district live.

The man behind the scenes and a man with the same moto as myself - you only live once. Yes you do, and you will soon get the feeling that Bruce really does do that! Thanks for everything you do for the region Bruce Phillips!

You are the brains trust behind the scenes at Murraylands Football and Netball sporting results. For those that do not follow our live sport streaming, please tell us what you do.

We live-stream community sport eg: Football, Cricket and Lawnmower Racing.

We also operate a Media Facebook Page covering Football and Netball around South Australia along with Cricket across the Fleurieu Districts.

Where did the passion for Murraylands Football and Netball sporting results come from?

I’m a sport tragic, have been involved in Cricket, Football and (Tennis as a youngster) Just wanted to give something back to the game.

What inspired you to head into live streaming?

Promote Sport at a Grass Roots level, so other matches in the competition could get access to another game. My Brother introduced me to previews and reviews of River Murray Football which I have been doing for 20 years.

Have you always been in this line of work, or was there a previous work life?

I’m a retired Dairy Farmer but now work in disability.

You live on the outskirts of the Fleurieu. Have you always lived in the Murraylands? What is it that makes you proud of the place you live and work?

Played Junior football for Langhorne Creek, but moved to Murray Bridge to farm on the river till it went pear shaped in 2005. Love the river and the easy-going lifestyle.

On a more personal note, tell us a little about Bruce and what you love to do out of work?

My other interests are Old Cars, travel, swimming, and speedway (would like to livestream speedway)

What is something many locals would not know about you (that you are willing to share!).

I’ve had both my hips replaced, even with a disability, I have an attitude of get out and have a go, follow your dreams. Give everything your best shot, you only get on chance.

Anything else you would like to share?

MFLTV Highlight – Live streaming from Flinders University Stadium, (SFL) doesn’t get better than this, huge achievement for our Team and I have a Number One Team behind me.
