Ch 7 Commentary - is it intervention time?

[SuperSub17]

Superb, absorbing last quarter this afternoon…

Every single replay is ruined by Darcy’s screaming. Absolutely awful.

Someone get rid of him please.

James Brayshaw made two of the best goals of the weekend seem so unbelievably pedestrian. Managed 3 or 4 words for each, then 10 seconds of dead silence.





Drag him out of the box kicking and screaming, chuck Bennett in there or something. What a shit show.

Keep in mind they go straight to an ad break on Seven. That is the Fox/Kayo feed that AFL posts on their socials.

Also, how good was JB’s call of Jeremy Cameron’s goal for Triple M. If only Seven let JB and BT show more personality!

then 10 seconds of dead silence.

For TV, I don't mind that.

You get the crowd roaring to fill in the silence.

That's sufficient.

Watch the last 5minutes of last years GF. I thought we were watching a memorial service rather than a tight finish to a GF. Most of the radio calls shit all over it

BT's on this doing some not-so-special comments. It's before he got a personality

 

[SS3840]

I do wish someone, perhaps the guy in green gave BT a hip and shoulder,,Be alert

There was a time where BT was awesone... Sally fitzigibbon could sell me a shed

Exciting football commentary as an art needs to make a comeback..it really does affect the watchability of games.

Lou Richards has been dead a long time

Lou Richards has been dead a long time

Lou was the pinnacle.

3AW had a great team in the late 80s to mid 90s. Channel 7 had a good run throughout the 90s with Landy and Roberts able to fill exciting calling roles when Bruce and Dennis were absent etc..

Tonight feels so lethargic because it’s special comments people trying to be callers and it doesn’t work.

It’s like they are sitting on a sofa slumped down having a casual conversation about the game.

This is exciting calling!

 

[troybe]

The problem tonight is none of the commentators have any personality

 

[Mootsy]

This is an example of exciting technical calling, in basketball..it has a showtime atmosphere about it, and it absolutely has an effect on watchability.

A nicer term would be that they don’t seem to show persona as callers, but yeh, I see your point, it’s very monotone.

Hey Luke Darcy has personality

 

[TheJanuaryMan]

That last ten minutes tonight was ruined by Darcy screaming repeatedly. Real fine line being passionate and hollering.

 

[burge13]

7 so desperate they've called Bruce back to work

 

[janty]

The GOAT returns

 

[Billy ray]

delicious

 

[MJG14]

Thought that Rompingwins was going to return from France to cover the finals. Might be the end of him now. No big loss.

Did no one tell Hamish about the rule of never take a holiday?

He should take more holidays.
