Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

Oh and then we get the greatness of channel 7 in western australia and the ****ing transmission cutting out for 1 minute. *********. They make collingwood supporters look like rocket scientists.

Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

Being completely sober today, this has to be the worst coverage for a major sporting event ever. Shit production, shit audio, passionless. Doesn't even feel like a grand final. Horrrible.

Yer i no what you mean. its a pretty poor effort from channel 7 seeing as its a grand final and all:thumbsdown:
 
Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

The audio is infuriating. The crowd sound completely muffled, it is as if there is no atmosphere what so ever. Among other problems.
 
Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

Terrible coverage in every sense of the word.
Poor buildup, terrible telecast through the game with replays over live action, bad angles and the two old ducks in Commetti and McArveny are like 2 old women at a retirement home calling a game for the residents, sharing their personal jokes that everyone else thinks are naff.

Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

Agree - and too much focusing on the close shots when a wide shot would be better. They did it through the year, why change it for the big one?

The only positive was the super slow mo.
 
Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

DO NOT CUT AWAY FROM LIVE PLAY!!!!! It's so simple, a fundamental part of a sports broadcast, I can't believe they continue to show pointless replays which result in us missing ruck contests, kick ins & umpiring decisions. Nowhere near good enough.
 
channel 7 seemed annoyed they had to show the grand final

only good part was following the pies in for their song wish they did that every year was good to see that sort of after match grand final stuff

rest of the coverage was crap
 
Re: Ch 7 absolutely shit

Director made the wrong call going to a shot of Luke Ball at the final siren. Obviously hoped to catch him giving the bird to Saints players or fans - too classy a bloke to do that sort of stuff

Wouldn't that make it a good call? The director got footage of Luke Ball being a decent and gracious winner... A lot of Pies and Saints fans would have been proud of him for that.
