Who is the best afl commentator?

[King Of The Hille]

BT on radio in the MMM days pwns everything I will ever hear...

His not quite the same at Fox.

The one I dont mind is Quarters and I like Walls 'special comments'.

Cant say there is a commentator which I like listening to...

Would rather not watch than listen to Dwayne Russel commentate

 

[Stoddy]

Clinton Grybas RIP

 

[SydneyGoose]

Gerard Healy!

And if worst I'd think Tony Shaw, but only because he says completely the opposite to what I'm thinking every time.

 

[Donakebab]

Drew Morphett, followed by Gerard Whateley.

 

[Henry Yoghurt]

Cometti on TV, Whateley on radio.

 

[Grongey]

Healy & Dunstall

 

[Hawthorn1971]

Good question.

We can safely rule out Matthew 'sub-par intellect sniper' Lloyd.

For mine, The Bristle.

 

[Dangas]

I agree back in the day classic 3AW with Grybas and Rex, just reminisce, this call is one of their greats

Agree with this.

BT at triple M was so good. Him, James Brayshaw, Danny frawley and Gary Lyon worked really well together I thought. Not sure why triple M got Rex Hunt, don't rate him at all.

 

[Pluggeroo]

Might be a little different, but I have enjoyed Peter Donegan on the radio the last couple of weeks.

I reckon radio commentary holds it over tv commentary. ABC all the way.

Now if I could only get decent quality in sync sound to match the telly.

 

[Majinbuu]

Dennis Cometti

 

[lions_den]

Rex just said "Even Gladstone Small would have got that for around the neck!", haha

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

Drew Morphett for me, no ego and no bloody "Dan Murphy stats"

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

I don't know about a favourite, but I enjoy special comments from Malcolm Blight. Unlike the others who try to pretend the game is just absolutely perfect, if he views an aspect of the game as just plain stupid, he's not afraid to say so, and most of the time he's spot on.

There seems to be this attitude in footy these days that if something is new it's gotta mke the game better, which of course is pure nonsense. Keep up the good work Blighty.

Karl Langdon always has been my favourite commentator, by a long way, and I wish I could hear more from him.

 

[aflcliche]

Cometti has got the prowess and quality of a classic broadcaster but also the inside knowledge of the game since he played and coached at high level

 

[DWAYNE_PIPE]

The Dwayne Pipe!!!!!

 

[The_Eagles]

BT, Karl and Dennis. I almost wish Dennis was just a special comments guy, I reckon he's the best at analysing as well as calling. Karl Langdon should definitely be on TV

 

[Grongey]

Not an inspiring lot these days. I'd say Huddo. With Malcolm Blight on comments.

 

[Feder98]

At the moment, Russell.

 

[BotsMaster]

Bring back Sandy Roberts.

 

[BigVic]

Sandy Roberts and Dennis Commetti has to be the best commentators of the game. I hope Sandy does the replay next Saturday along with Bruce and Dennis.

 

[Spudregus_87]

Gerard Whateley. Hands down best in the biz!

 

[ming65]

Gerard Whateley. Hands down best in the biz!

Amen and +1 to that. I reckon he's the best by a long way and almost the best sports commentator I've ever heard. Unfortunately he handed over to Drew Morphet for the last few seconds of this this years GF but in previous years his calls of the last minute or so were amazing.

His classic from this year - It goes to Didak and ooooooo....he's met front on and they pile in on top of him! There lies Alan Didak!.......and the umpire bounces the ball on his carcass!

 

[greatwhiteshark]

McAvaney, Commetti, Morphett and Lane.

Daylight the rest.

Blight and Mathews for special comments
