Ch 7 GF coverage

[ManWithNoName]

I must say they've lifted.

Some great camerawork.
Bruce has LIFTED.
Dennis is as smooth as usual.
The Ox is actually making decent comments
Bux and Lethal are as good as you'd expect.

 

[Shane_Mag]

Agreed. They have gone up a notch which is good. Have enjoyed the commentary for once.

 

[Lazarus]

good to see credit where it's due
i too am pleasantly surprised

 

[bo waters for PM]

exceptional coverage by Channel 7
Bucks and even Ox some great expert commentary atm
GREAT GAME AND GREAT COVERAGE!

 

[BOMBERSG8]

Well Down Channel 7
You have proven that u r the home of footy

 

[Bombers_Forever]

Leight Matthews has made a huge difference.

 

[SBI]

Absolutely fantastic. The whole day was awesome - the preshow was great.

My only complaint was that they started the GF Marathon a bit too late, but best football coverage on Seven in ages.

I wouldn't go that far.
But hey, nothing stood out as bad, so that's to be commended. Generally that's how it should be, you shouldn't have to notice anything, it's just there.

I thought the commentary was a joke, apart from Bucks and Lethal, Ox is a moron, 'he doesn't know the word give up' when talking about Joel Selwood, Mcavaney is a stat machine but who cares when the last crowd of over 100,000 was?, or what year the last team to come from behind in a GF at 3 quarter time was, as for Cometti, time to go Denis the gags don't work anymore.

 

[dont bowl there]

Best Grand Final pre-game and game telecast for many years, today should be the benchmark for future years.

I care. I find that sort of useless shit very interesting. Puts things into context.

There post game is a disgrace, too many ads not enough celebrating!

While I watched the game on TV I listened to the whole game on Triple M.
Just got a feed off the net, With IQ I timed it so the whole game was in sync and boy I've only ever enjoyed it more being there.

 

[ubolt]

the only complaint i have about the coverage was that on a few occasions (i think 3 off the top of my head) there was something happening on field while we were seeing a replay of something else or just a pointless shot of nothing.

One occasion a free kick was paid while we saw a shot of Bartel in the changerooms. There was that free kick paid off someone (Brown?) when he was told to play on and got caught throwing the ball while we were watching a replay of two players looking at each other.

It was very good coverage though: and hey - it was live.

 

[peternorth]

c7 about to cut away to the news whilst hawks sing the song?

 

[DonMania#5]

Yeah, they cut to the news, lol.

 

[Shane_Mag]

[peternorth]

[Chadwiko]

C7 just undid their good work by not showing the song.

Just poor

Shows what a Joke Channel 7 Are

 

[darcytiger]

I was just about to post the same thing, was better than 10 last year i rekon. I really enjoyed their coverage. Good job 7!!

 

[ManWithNoName]

And then they f- it all up by not showing the song. So close to perfection Ch 7!

 

[the_fresh]

THAT IS THE DOGGIEST OF DOG ACTS OF ALL TIME!


Channel 7 you are a fu*king disgrace and should have the rights taken off you!

 

[GoHawkers]

Bloody C7! Couldn't wait a few extra minutes for the song!

 

[Eagle87]

c7 about to cut away to the news whilst hawks sing the song?

And in some states its not even news time - we get "The World Around Us" in Perth instead of waiting 2 minutes for the song?

Absolutely bloody disgraceful.

Pay $780million for the rights and cant put the news back 15 mins.

They are a joke.
