Title: Dennis Cometti Richmond Needs One more Turn at the Bottom?
Post by: 10 FLAGS on May 06, 2012, 06:31:29 PM
The phone rang when Commetti was saying we had to go one more time to the bottom of the ladder, I didnt hear the end of his comments, but if he didnt change it up, then how do we all see this. Do we need to tank? Will we go to the bottom one more time before we finally rise? How does the club go about neutralising all the picks that the Gold Coast got and GWS. Discuss?

With free agency and clever trading i don't believe we need to bottom out again.

And earlier in the broadcast they were saying we need to go into free agency looking for a mid priced monster backman to play on the gorillas.
I would put more creedence in this above comment than what Dennis is saying.

They just fill in the time with some outlandish stuff. Dennis also said he has never seen Nahas play a bad game. Wasn't he commentating last Sunday in our game against West Coast? :wallywink

Nuffy comment really, i reckon we've done exceptionally well with our first 2 picks in conca and ellis in light of the expansion clubs dominating early selections. He prob isnt aware of our extra comp pick that means we have 2 selections this draft. We're well placed dont worry about that :shh

Stick to commentary instead of special comments.

Post by: Rodgerramjet on May 06, 2012, 08:03:33 PM
Basically you can, and should think completely the opposite when considering Commetti's comments. He is a sarcastic idiot full stop.

Nahas is only just a footballer, he is practically incapable of staying on his feet and is not strong enough. We have a long way to go we still have duds.

Reiwoldt needs to play football and stop being a prima donna up forward. There are huge danger signs in or forward line, they are lazy.

I could go on, we still need better players.

They were gasps and a 'what!?' from Watson, Ling and I think McAvaney when Den uttered his thoughts.

He said we'll go back to the bottom before we climb again. Said that GWS and GC Suns took the good picks we should have had when we were poor and now we don't have some high picks hidden away ready to come in to the side.

Knows he's in demand and loves the attention does he with the inflated head. Soon that said man won't be able to comb over from left to right, the head will inflate so much

Definitely agree with the backman comment and had we of received the draft picks according to ladder position over the past two years we would be in a better place right now...IMO

Yeah we could have picked up 1 or 2 more Shane Edwards

Is this guy kidding, stupid comment! For one we have enough of a team not to bottom out, actually we wont so that ends that.
Yes we need a top up, we still from my understanding have a bit of room in the salary cap and I would be getting in the ear of a few of the Suns and Giant boys to address this.

He kinda made up for it with his call of the Nahas goal, 'Got him with his slower ball' LMFAO  :rollin

We got Conca and Ellis.

Who would we have got if GC and GWS didn't exist?

The expansion teams' concession affected every teams drafting, not just ours.

I think it is clubs that have been there abouts but didnt take their opportunities, like st kilda and footscray, that are really going to feel the pinch over the next few years as their senior core ages and they lack the quality to replace them. our first round picks were still low enough to bring in quality players in the last two years to follow on with pick 3 (Martin) from the previous year

Sides like the 'Aints and the Dawgs are going to suffer more from GWS and GC Suns than we are. Their premiership window is closing and they got picks in the late teens. Leaves a big hole in their lists.

From Mark Robinson's live chat today ...

Q. Robbo what are your thoughts on the tiges, are there any specific players we should target in free agency to plug the back 6 or give jack a hand in the forward line?

A. "Tigers could still do with players at both ends... Need another tall defender, although Astbury layed a half for Coburg at the weekend [Ed.  :huh ]. Nahas can be inconsistent, so another mid forward would be nice... they are just two players, but as the Tigers evolve they will prop all areas of the ground"

I think its a shame that the two once upon a time best commentators on the television in Dennis and Bruce who actually called the game the way it should be called have resorted to gimmicks and sensationalist comments and headlines just like the trashy mags and rags.

Needs to revert back to what made him the best in the first place and call the game properly without trying to outdo the classics that have have made him who he is. Right now he is ordinary.

Commetti is just like Graham Kennedy.

Simple minded folk love his ad-lib comments.

The rest of us know how much he rehearses his lines.

"Great kick to "the Future"

"Butcher, does quite cut the mustard."

"thanks Bruce, you are so well informed"

"Blah blah blah"

Take note of the companies that advertise during his broadcasts, ring them up and tell them that YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS will never buy a product from them while THEY PAY FOR THIS MORON.

Goodbye Dennis Commentary.

Tony Shaw only makes negative comments about every team.

"he should have kicked it to space, not to the goalsquare"    in the situation where Richo was on his own in the goalsquare.

"don't go down the guts, kick it along the flank"

blah blah blah.

His "commentary" allows us to understand WHY COLLINGWOOD SACKED HIM. NFI.

When will Foxtel wake up. At least Collingwood did.
