who is the worst commentator atm?

[TigerTime3]

This question is like asking 'who is the worst player at Carlton?'

It would be unfair to just pick one.

 

[wegetpumped]

All i want to know is why they all hate the tigers so biased. I say bring back Kelly Underwood

 

[monstabud]

lyon, quartermain, watson, basil, mcavanney, darcy, comettti are like that S@#t stain in the bottom of the toilet bowl thats hard to scrub off.
rexy is the best by far.

 

[Tiger Toffee]

This is like asking which Richmond wooden spoon was your favourite?

1987 was pretty special, first team to finish 14th, no one can ever take that off us.

 

[Infamy]

RIP Clinton Grybas, such a shame that there's been no one try to emulate how good he was as a commentator

 

[tugga]

Dwayne russell cant stand the muppet especially when he calls bachar bakker and a close second to basil

He says the most irrelavant things.
"They're one minute and 20 seconds away from winning the quarter the Brisbane Lions"
"The crowd is a bit shellshocked at this score" - the score at the time was GWS 9 to Brisbane 13.

And that's just a small sample from the first quarter of today's game.

gems...

 

[smasha]

Who will be barracking for West Coast in our next game?

 

[Pounce]

Basil. I hate how he thinks he is an expert on AFL when he has never played and how he thinks the crap he says is funny.

 

[SplintWhisky]

For me I prefer fox when it is Sandy, Derm and Dunstall calling. Yeah they may all be a little clueless but they are at least unbias

 

[captain cotch 9]

Chanel 7 is embarrasing!
Ling, Darcey, BT, Basil, Dennis, Bruce...all of them are drama queens that are more interested in creating a story instead of calling the game.

 

[TheDyerLegacy]

All of them.

 

[aislegi]

I've always wondered what it means when Bruce McAvaney says that so-and-so "arches the back"

 

[Bojangles17]

that knob jockey "here comes freo" (42p) down zemplis , what a _____

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Commentators don't bother me Darcy struggles I reckon.

 

[RogerDean]

That tool Zempilas has no idea at all about anything and is pretty typical of the dumbed down approach that Seven has to footy nowadays. Their jingle...The Boys Are Back, makes Nickelback seem like an art-rock band. The call on Friday night was lacking in almost very understanding of the way the game was unfolding. The commentary lacks nuance and balance- its made for supporters who are so thick that they have to be yelled at by BT or whispered to by Ling. His whispering disguises the fact that he knows nothing about the game he's commenting on and he just goes over and over the same old clichés. He knows how to suck up to Geelong players and pretty well nothing else. In my opinion, the game against Port was just as bad, with Ricciuto blathering on about a Port comeback all through the second half, but believe me, if you want to hear some absolutely appalling commentary, try listening to K-Rock, Geelong's FM radio station. This station is appalling any time of day or night, but their football coverage is enough to make you throw up.

I usually don't mind Dennis, but Friday nights " This is incredible stuff by the Dockers" in the third. **** me

I've always wondered what it means when Bruce McAvaney says that so-and-so "arches the back"

Yes, that is an athletic term which describes touching your toes, as in "Ärch your back, Bruce."

 

[Helen Wheels]

Their jingle...The Boys Are Back,

That's by The Dropkick Murphys and if Seven knew what "dropkick"meant in rhyming slang, they'd probably die of fright.

Richo should replace one of those clowns next year. Get him calling more, he's unbiased even when we know he bleeds yellow and black.

 

[Tony Harrison]

There's some shockers out there.
Pretty glad I don't have to listen to that campaigner Robert walls anymore though.
And blighty was pretty shit too.
A cpl things to be thankful for.

 

[WATiger86]

Basil. I hate how he thinks he is an expert on AFL when he has never played and how he thinks the crap he says is funny.

"High Fyfes all round"
"You could almost say he rose miles above"

Think he is being groomed as Cometti's replacement, and in doing so is trying to saturate his ramblings with one liners. A failure of epic proportions

 

[Sol23]

Nick maxwell... He ****ing barracking for Collingwood
Get out of the commentry box if ur gonna b that biased
