AO tv coverage

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

I was looking for something to clear this up, and found this YouTube series:





I'm not exactly sure what it's supposed to be, but it got me laughing.

Some one send it to 7 because they find it hard to say last names

 

[Kaan]

Keep saying it every year, but i hate the diagonal camera view that they do as the player serves and it stays that way for the first few shots of the rally before reverting to the default camera angle. When they started this a few years ago its like they were trying to be innovative, but it is bloody annoying.

So much this.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

How do some people get into the media um er ah

 

[Caesar]

"Do you think it (Federer/Tomic) will be like Sampras/Philippoussis?"

Just go die in a fire, Bruce.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

No i don't.
What do you think Bruce ?

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

Hewitt commentating Tomic vs Federer, **** yeah!

Quite a few times now they actually keep it in that view even after the ball has been served, I mean who cares about seeing where a player is placing their serve right?

Won't even get started on the frequency of entire points being missed due to some banal replay or cross-promo, Ch 7 are startlingly unprofessional.

 

[Righteo]

Also stop ****ing talking so much Sandy, bloke loves the sound of his own voice.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

More Hewitt less Bruce , Sandy , Hamish & Basil please 7

 

[OzBomber]

Never thought I'd see the day where the Australian public would be begging for more Hewitt.

 

[BLPC08]

I can't watch the C7 coverage anymore. Hamish is quite possibly the biggest f***wit in the world. He can't pronounce players names, let alone their countries properly. He has no idea about tennis, why in the name of christ you would hire this sack of s*** is beyond me.

Basil is ok, Bruce is decent, Hamish on the other hand - well he's simply a cancer.

 

[SJ]

Last night I was only half listening when Hamish was throwing to the start of the Federer-Davydenko match and he said something like 'let's go to Bruce, and another Macca'. Did he think McEnroe was commentating?

 

[JuddyBuddy]

Who are the two girls? Pretty sure ones a swimmer, is the other one that model or whatever she is from the apprentice? Wtf do they have to do with tennis

It would make sense if he brought other things to the table to offset his complete lack of knowledge, things like a bare minimum of competence or charisma or a rich speaking voice; but he's just a smug twat.

The worst thing is I now actually look forward to Basil ****ing Zempilas who looks like Clinton Grybas next to him.

 

[OzBomber]

The very first words said all night and he nearly ****s it up completely haha.

"Novak Djokovic vs Radek Stepanek, the Czech from ugh....... the ranking of 31."

Thanks Basil.

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

He does the same thing on 7 news WA.

 

[Rustin Cohle]

I think I want to kill Sandy Roberts.

 

[The_Big_Ship]

And now lets skip the live tennis and show a replay instead....

 

[The Prosecutor]

And now lets skip the live tennis and show a replay instead....

Better yet, they were advertising that the game was live!

 

[Righteo]

When did they ever get rid of Kia Hotshots? Was the only segment actually worth watching. I know it's more important to see Player X walking to a practise court but it's still disappointing.

Wasn't there last seson either, it was great.

 

[damochandler]

good the obsession with tomic is over now

 

[love_balls]

Hey guys, just got Foxtel and was wondering what the tennis coverage is like. Looking back at the old threads I assume the 1000 matches are on ESPN?

What about the other slams, women's matches and the 500 and 250's? Also non Australian Davis Cup matches.

Cheers.

My god this is beyond a joke, basil is cringeworthy going on about the time between points rule newsflash this isn't an ATP event rather a slam hence the different rules. Pretty sure that was cleared up on day 1 even a knob like basil should be able to work it out by day 6.

During the tomic mach they showed their flash harry megawall with the monfils match clearly in progress then cut to the start and try to claim it as live.
