View Full Version : Dennis is back
Dennis Cometti is doing commentary on today ING [and probably the rest of the series] match.
About time ch9 got him back on.At least we don't have to put up with Tony 'F%@*ing' Greig.

No we just have to put up with him at the World Cup !!!! At least Lawry isnt there
Channel 9 really needs to get some new commentators...just because a few of them helped start World Series Cricket doesnt mean they should have jobs for life.

Dont know what other people think but I think James Brayshaw is very good.
Greig and Lawry are alright, it is Ian "I'm jealous of Adam Gilchrist" Healy they should get rid of.

I agree. He and Dennis were very good together from what I saw earlier on.
Brayshaw is a good cricket commentator,but he's not good at footy commentating.
It's good to hear Dennis and "Giggle's" O'Keeffe working together.

Has anyone else noticed that Lawry has been calling Katich "Caddick" twice in today's broadcast?

I believe Bill Lawry is a good commentator that isn't afraid to give some excitement in his call. He should be in SA.

Agree with the general sentiments expressed about the commentating today - it was refreshing to hear a commentary team made up of new voices, it made it a very entertaining broadcast.
A pairing of O'Keefe/Cometti and/or Lawry/Cometti is something I would like to hear more often.

Anyone else hear Bill Lawry say this today?
"Pakistan are either red hot, or red cold"
Classic stuff.

Proves that he is a total ********
Bill Lawry is a total legend.... he is the best commentator by a country mile. Anyone who thinks this isn't correct doesn't know anything.

James Brayshaw is very good, I agree... he should be on Nine's cricket coverage more throughout the summer. He also does some work for Triple M here in Melbourne, appearing on 'The Cage' in the mornings and doing some football commentry.

Any chance of leaving him there?

Great to see Dennis doing the cricket again. He was great to listen to when he did the commentary for the ABC years back. Dennis seems to create a atmosphere on his own.
