Basil interviews Leon Cameron

[RodneyMaynard]

Bulldogs get a goal.
Basil Zempalis: "we now cross to the Bulldogs coach Leon Cameron, Leon that was a good settler for you guys"
Leon Cameron (GWS coach): um, no, not a great settler for us Basil....

God help us if 7 think Basil and Rompingwins are the future of commentary. With Den retiring this year and Bruce presumably not long after, this is the time for 7 to start blooding some new commentators in preperation.

Anyway, anyone got any other horribly awkward footy commentary memories?

 

[pickettline]

Priceless

 

[BoxMatrix]

And they say this flog is one of the candidates to replace Cometti.

The sad thing is that he's actually one of the better commentators Seven currently have. I'd take him any day over Cameron Ling or Richo.

Cameron Ling and Richo are commentators? Ok...

 

[Furn2]

This is why all sport should be on pay tv.

 

[Substance]

Shouldn't one just retire after this? How much of an amateur commentator do you have to be not to know who the 18 coaches are?

 

[Xenthor]

Basil you silly ****

 

[Soups]

Hahaha that was the best thing about this game. Cameron wouldn't have been like what a moron.

 

[Sedat!]

Ch 7 should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute. Embarrassing

 

[MarcusP2]

Didn't he also say 5 in a row to the Bulldogs when it was in fact 5 in a row for the Giants?

 

[Freoforever86]

Hopefully Dennis is seeing what the future of commentating is going to be and reconsiders his retirement.

Dennis can be the vin scully of the AFL & just keep going (although vin is retiring this year too)

Foxtel need to pay him huge money to do the weekly Perth foxfooty if he cbf flying anymore

 

[Sedat!]

Danny Frawlry once interviewed Don Pyke on MMM, when Pyke was Asst Coach at the Crows a few years ago. Crows were playing Eagles and every question Spud asked was about how the Eagles would structure up. Pyke had to remind him halfway through the inverview that he worked for the Crows.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Someone tell channel 7 to use Jason Bennett from the VFL or poach the guy on fox who dies the Perth games to replace Comtetti.

 

[Easton Thighs]

I know he's from Perth but his commentary is about 2 hours behind play.

 

[Jase Cutler]

Who do you have in mind?

 

[Beauski]

Someone got a link to the moment in question?

Sounds like delicious cringe

 

[Happy_Neale]

Someone had to do it...

 

[Tarkyn_24]

Someone had to do it...

Damn beat me to the cheap likes.

 

[Happy_Neale]

Damn beat me to the cheap likes.

Don't worry, it's been posted too many times to get significant likeage.

 

[RUNVS]

Shows that Basil does not bother to actually do any research when it comes to the teams.

 

[Ok Boomer]

Dennis getting out before these morons ruin his legacy by association.

 

[RUNVS]

Someone had to do it...

The Swans are getting that sort of insight now every week, and Fremantle, who had that insight for a few years and now they have lost it they are at the bottom of the table.

 

[pjcrows]

Damn beat me to the cheap likes.

I'll give you one.
