Dennis Cometti says 2016 will be his last season

[BallaratBulldog]

Now we get to hear Basil Zempilas every Friday night for the next 25 years.

Should have held onto Sandy Roberts for a tad longer. Would have been a nice replacement for a while at lest.

 

[Murraj1966]

Bring across Sandy and Huddo from Foxtel and chuck out Basil and Darcy

 

[pazza]

Will Drew Morphett have his phone on?

 

[Hamingja]

Huddo must have pissed someone off at 7 as they have had plenty of chances to pick him up since 10 lost the rights and haven't and he is the best commentator going around.

A sad day for us all. Full story in West Australian here: https://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/wa/a/30777574/footy-master-dennis-cometti-to-call-it-quits/

And the Age just put up some fun for us to reminisce: http://www.theage.com.au/afl/centim...mettiisms-20160210-gmpy6j.html?skin=text-only

And the nauseating love in has started

 

[Lethality]

He may have lost it in the last 5 years as some say, but Dennis has still been solid, and that puts him head and shoulders above the rest of them at Channel 7.

If anyone needed to announce a retirement, it's Bruce. He normally brings his A-game to the Grand Final, but the 2015 GF call was his usual Friday night crap. Time to go.

 

[Jade]

That's it, footy is dead.

 

[TheJanuaryMan]

still one of the best going around, which says a lot about some of those who permeate the airwaves by being handed a microphone and allowed to assault the public with burbling in-jokes, sfellowing, hollering and thinking they are bigger than the game (hi, james brayshaw, among many others).

became a bit focussed on the one-liners for a while, and started to sound rehearsed, but still, you knew who had the ball, where it was and where it was likely to go next.

replacing him with basil is like being given a nickelback cassette when you wanted guns n roses tickets.

 

[Spuddage]

Will be missed, his commentary game was on point. Sah good.

 

[ManWithNoName]

So OP button mashed hard on anonymous mod.

Thread moved to appropriate board with less capacity for likes.

Regret palpable.

Oh hey there, it's been a while

he's not suitable, talks too much about the football

 

[hoddo22]

Well channel 7 is unbearable now. Dennis is so much better without Bruce on Triple M it's unbelievable. Sad to see him calling it quits.

Thanks for your recognition. I've sent flowers.

Keep them. I'm worried about how obsessed you seem to be with someone on a football forum who you disagree with occasionally. I mean if that's how you want to spend your time, by all means. But it is rather sad. There's so much more one could do with one's time.

 

[damochandler]

Wouldn't be surprised if he's at foxfooty next year. He's been terrible since he came back to 7. Hope he does the swimming for 7 at the Olympics this year

 

[Rod Stroker]

If travel is his issue then surely they should keep him on to do the games at home in Perth, which is every week.

Still one of the best in the biz.

As the leading authority on what constitutes sad I will bow to your superior knowledge and overwhelming experience.

I actually don't seek you out. You just stand out. For all the wrong reasons..

 

[masai]

Commetti really fell off in recent years, it speaks volumes for the quality of the others then, how absolutely awful 7 commentary is going to be now.

Forgot all his ABC training and sold his soul, trying to be a comedian rather than a commentator.

Apart from the odd friday night most perth games are fox games

Lol righto son. You're obsessed with someone on an internet forum. That really is just sad. You @ me on posts where I'm talking to other people. You appear in threads I make with alarming regularity. But keep telling yourself you don't seek me out. If that makes you feel better, you roll with it.

I've probably tagged you once or twice. Ever.

Your paranoia has brought you to breaking point.

Sorry I've got you so rattled bud xx

Oh I don't actually care. I'm merely concerned. It's the kind of guy I am.

Good chat.

Trolling in the Cometti vale thread.

Poor form.
