Ch 7 commentary
« on: May 18, 2007, 11:45:22 PM »
How crap is Ch 7.

No atmosphere or excitement in their call.

They should have signed up Brian Taylor to partner Dennis.

Tim Watson is a disgrace.

How is this for special comments.

Richo is lining up half way through the last qtr and we are two goals down

Tim says "Every Richmond supporter will be hoping he kicks this" F&8king no sh*t

then when Howat goaled and made it one or two goals Tim said

"The Tigers really believe they can win this game"

Ch 7 you are a disgrace.

Thought the commentary was fair - boring, but fair!
Can't ask for more than that.

It's been like this all year. Flat as. They arrived expecting a one-sided game and commentated that way. Sheesh if you can't generate excitement with the number of momentum swings tonight then you shouldn't be commentating. Cometti is good but he has no one to bounce off with his witty comments. BT is exactly what they need Bully. Ch 7 are still acting like they did when they lost the rights in the first place.  

Maybe Eddie will go to Ch 7 lol

Bruce was good and got excited - Dennis is a classic.

But yeah the captain obvious calls from timbo were a tad lame.

Still better than hearing eddie.

Some of the special comments were to state the obvious Timmy  :P
but rather than focussing on the commentary what about the coverage going to replays of frees when the players had played on and inopportune times to go to adds. Case in point last quarter when Krak got a free they replayed it twice so Tim can state the f****** obvious and they went back to thematch when Pettifer was lining up for goal without showing us Petts mark and after Polak's goal they go to an add. I know it was on delay but where is your sense of theatre ch7. I was preying for 2 goals and the action and they give me some granny from Bunnings. For f**** sake. :banghead

I hate the patronising tone they used nearly all night, channel 10 did the same last week, makes us look like idiots.
A classic Cometti last night delivered in his mono tone
Adelaide lining up for goal, "This is gonna hurt"
Goal
"Ouch"
So flat and unemotional it was funny ;D

Channel 7 footy is a joke compared to 9 footy. There is a massive difference in the quality of it all.

Can't ask for more than that.

There is no problem with it being unfair, there is just no "vibe" in their call.

When Ch 9 had the football it was upbeat and they seemed to have great passion for calling the game.

Ch 7 is a disgrace, i cant wait until 9 gets it back again.  :pray

I think Channel 10 just topped that effort.
The game didn't help either  :help
