With Bruce, Cometti and Watson looking like being the main Ch 7 line-up next year, who do you think is/are/was the best commentator(s) in footy?
-
Commetti is No1 for me. I like his wit, and that he's natural.I don't mind Quartermain or Lane, either.
On radio, Rex Hunt is diabolically bad, a self-important windbag. I can't stand commentators who think they're more important than the game they're commentating on.
-
Dennis & Bruce back together on Friday nights - close to the perfect combination IMO - it's speccccccccialllllllll
I used to like Ian Robertson - he and Bruce when they teamed were quite good.
I don't mind Jason Bennett formerly of Fox Footy now I suppose unemployed ;D
Not a fan of Matthew Campbell formerly of Ch 7 and more recently Fox Footy channel
Worse commentator by a mile is the biased Tim Gosage - or as most people know him Tim GOOOSEage :wallywink :yep
-
IMO, Commetti :thumbsup Everything he says just rolls right off the tongue, he's a natural.

Same here with Cometti and Bruce as numero uno. Good to see they'll be Ch 7's number 1 team. I hope they don't bring back Sandy, Drew Morphet or dipper though. Although I never use to like him commentating Dwayne Russell isn't too bad now when he's not comparing Geelong and Richmond. I might get howled down lol but I found Eddie pretty good when commentating non-Collingwood games.
As for the past, I grew up with Lou Richards and Peter Landy in tandem so I always liked them. Rush home from the footy after a win to watch Seven's Big League. LOL going from seeing a highlighted quarter from two games on a Saturday plus the Swans matches live on a Sunday to now almost ending up with all 8 games on FTA telly :o.

maceveny irks me a little but you can't put a beat wrong with the Comentating Cometti.
-
To be a good commentater you must leave your team bais at the door of the studio - something some of them can't handle.
