5AA on AFL.com.au

[fishman]

Man, I am listening to the game thru this mob (5AA.)

These guys commenting the game are THE MOST BIASED PIG IGNORANT MORONS I HAVE EVER HEARD.

Deadset, they are so biased that I reckon the one that groans every 5 seconds would use each crows player's turds as toothpaste. Officially worse than Bruce McAveney.

Its either that or wait 6 minutes for the 'live' AFL scores to update.

Can't be any worse than David 'Adelaide are 1337' Parkin. It is unbelievable how one-sided he has been.

5AA are the equivalent of K-Rock. im listening to them too, they spend the whole time beating off over kenny mcgregor and stiffy johncock

The irony of it all. Just another thing I add to my list of football hates - the AFL bending over for the SA market.

CaN Someone Bloody Tell Them Is Bartel Not Bartels!

 

[DWil6]

Good win to the Cats. On the commentary, i totally agree. It was painful to listen to from a neutral perspective.

 

[Ricardo]

As biased as K-Rock but worse because they were biased towards Adelaide

 

[fishman]

I am tempted to ring them up and rub it in. But then again you cannot beat a moron with intelligent wit.

 

[bus24]

LOL

Oh the joys of 5AA. You'll listen once and never again.

Have listened to K-Rock against adel and hated every second. Understand what you guys went through. 5AA is crap and cringe-worthy. Am a one eyed supporter but I cant stand them. Why didn't afl.com have other options? SEN did the game didn't they?

David Parkin was actually on Fox, they resold the audio to 1337. Both Healy and he were terrible. It is like Geelong were 10 goals down,
so negative. Geelong were the underdogs IMO, as we have travelled poorly in the past. Adelaide are a crunching/grinding team that slow
down the faster paced teams, where I thought we maybe found begging.

Healy and Parkin sucked though, nearly as bad as Walls IMO.

5AA are **** - even most die hard Adelaide supporters think they're over the top.

This surprised me as both men have been very positive about Geelong up to this point - are they mates of Neil Craig? They were very biased (when I listened) - kept the commentary right down. (Anyone is better than Walls though - he thinks we are 'vulnerable' - lacking 'inner strength' - so much bull.) Blake doesn't derserve the criticism he got - he is young and learning rapidly - Tenace - perhaps. But the team going down to 'Adelaide which did not make the most of its chances' underestimates us - probably better that way! I hate being red-hot favourites.

 

[G.F.C]

Totally agree on 5AA.

Also was disgusted 2 weeks ago with the ABC broadcast of the Cats/Power match. Steven Williams etc are a bunch of clowns. Very little on how good we played, they were just trying to find positives in Ports performance. It really was horrendous.

It's supposed to be the "National Coverage", as all ABC locations carried this broadcast, yet it was so biased. They should have had a nuetral commentary team for a national coverage.

It irked me so much i wrote a letter to ABC Radio complaining of the standard on the call. Suffice to say, nothing received back yet.

I agree on the 774 coverage, wasn't totally biased but you can tell they do no research on opposition players...who the hell is "Wozinski"?

 

[a.f.k.a.y.o.p.]

Good to see some balanced South Australians. Didnt think you existed.....
I rarely listen to K-Rok, except for a laugh - preferring unbiased clear commentary of the game.
I am sure when the Crows get some of your injured guys back it will be even harder and could go either way - though i think the Cats learned a valuable lesson on how to play to your style yesterday. September will be interesting......

 

[re cat]

Went to PA game and tuned into Adelaide MMM they where rude and insulting to our players, mainly Lingy and turned off before half time. I presume it didn't get any better. Give me KRock any day at least they have some dignity.

 

[stokesyugun]

the commentators were **** house
i watched the game on fox and 3 times in a row makie was called varcoe! ... i mean how stupid can u get????
they also stated that the foward combination of hawkins and nablett hadnt been working the past couple of weeks and then to top it off they said we havnt won at AAMI stadium for 3 years .... we won there 2 weeks ago!!! later in the broadcast they corrected themselves!!!
it really ****** me off!!! ruined wat otherwise was a great game!!

I find the MMM guys hilarious, they normally stick it to both sides, and just have a bit of fun.


YearsofPain - without turning this into a mutual admiration thread, I hope you guys go a long way this year; much prefer watching you guys play Footy than most teams.

Roger Wills is a Geelong fan. Hardly made up for Walshy's "Was that a free kick to Adelaaaide? Ohh, the umps didn't pay it," on loop.

It was heart warming listening to the post-match reunion between Eric Freeman and Glenelgian Andrew Mackie. MrMackie mentioned on another thread that 5AA awarded him 2 votes, so did Steven Williams. Surprised Edwards was given the 1 vote, as I thought Thompson or Van Berlo were more deserving. Still a notch above the Perth crew.

 

[re cat]

might tune in now to see what they are complaining about.

 

[Shell]

The mob in Perth can be worse (6PR?). I remember once we lost over there, in the end by 2 points, in an obviously close match. But you wouldn't know there were two teams out on the park.

Thank god I don't have to listen to the radio for matches anymore, that's all I can say.
