Who TF Is This Commentator??

[Lavender Bushranger]

My god.

This is deplorable.

Making Hamish sound like a pro.

 

[Shane Heard]

Footscray’s favourite son after Teddy

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

Seriously, who is this guy?

F**ken hell.

Ch7 have reached new lows.

to the list of pointless mouthpiece Channel 7 commentators if it’s not him.

 

[Allezjuel]

Alister Nicholson is the actual commentator, worked most of his career as a cricket commentator for ABC grandstand before moving to 7 a year or so ago.

 

[BigPond101]

He's much better than Jason Bennett

Burgoyne and Nathan Jones have just added so much to the commentary team this year.

That must be him.

Oh man. It was borderline unbearable.

 

[Foucault1989]

Oh man. It was borderline unbearable.

He's pretty decent.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

He's pretty decent.

As a guy? Maybe

As a footy commentator?? F**k no.

Tonight was probably the worst performance by a sports broadcaster I have ever heard.

 

[La Dispute]

Oh s**t, this is the same former dour Dees back pocket?

That Cape Rourke call was cringey as hell.

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

That Cape Rourke call was cringey as hell.

I was dumdfounded by its stupidity.

Staggering.

 

[Hoops]

I previously thought he was pretty good, but tonight he was so biased towards Freo.

 

[blinkd]

Yea I thought he was pretty good

 

[Lavender Bushranger]

I previously thought he was pretty good, but tonight he was so biased towards Freo.

TBH, I didn't particularly note any bias necessarily - just patheticly over the top gushing over every single moment of the game and every single player.

Embarrassing.

At many points, I actually thought there was a glitch and that the commentary was out of sync with what I was watching. The forced excitement just didn't align with what was actually happening.

And the attempts at poetic genius at every contest and action made it unbearable.

Hamish McLachlan has no peer (aside from Basil) when is comes to over reacting mindlessly to every single moment like it's the closing 10m of the Olympic Men's Final of the 100m sprint - but tonight he appeared low key compared to this other cretin.

 

[Luv_our_club]

If Jobe Watson does special comments on the Grand Final the telecast will be ruined for all time. It is next level cringe every time he speaks - torture.

Will be listening to the radio

I genuinely can't tell if this is sarcasm or not.

 

[Scroater]

Oh s**t, this is the same former dour Dees back pocket?

That Cape Rourke call was cringey as hell.

He was channelling Basil Zemplis.

 

[BigPond101]

I wonder where Adam Paply was he does every Freo/WCE home game and then gets turfed for the big final

Doesn’t he work for Foxtel?

He is ******* woeful. I can't believe people bag Daisy Pearce when this borderline primate is in the commentary box

Only sport in the world you’d find a convicted drug cheat still involved with the game commentating

Well Channel Seven employs another m*ngoloid of a former player who was convicted for glassing a woman in the face, so why not complete the set? Lol

Not condoning it but there is a long line of media personalities who are s**t people. Being a drug cheat is another thing entirely.
