Biggest commentary bugbears?

[Corkintheocean]

I have nothing good to say about any of the CH 7 commentators, they are a disgrace. All of them*

*plus the cheat on special comments who should not be on the broadcast

Jobe or Carey?

Jobe or Carey?

Jobe - sports cheat.

If we disqualified adulterers we would have very few commentators

My bugbear is Mcavaney asking those little rhetorical questions at the end of every statement.

Just did 2 in like 5 seconds

 

[Back One Out]

When Brian Taylor gets fixated on an umpire's decision he thinks was controversial and then screams about it repetitiously instead of letting it go and calling the great goal which was kicked

"That was out of bounds!
That was out of bounds!
THAT WAS OUT OF BOUNDS!!
THAT WAS OUT OF BOUNDS!!
tHaT wAs oUt oF bOuNdS!!"

 

[Veer Right]

Ling as everything that comes out of his mouth is captain obvious. Also wouldn't dare not go against the majority view on any topic. Would make a great politician and that is not a compliment.

He grates me so much it's painful to my ears.

'Off a step'.

I agree about Bruce's rhetorical questions. Has said about five already tonight.

 

[Headless]

"The West Coast".

1. Bruce McAvaney, eh?

 

[north_lad]

- Hammer describing something as "sort of a", ie "ugly sort of a kick". It's either a kick or it isn't, shut the **** up!

- The pronunciation of "brilliant" as BRIYANT!!! there's two L's and no Y's.

- as mentioned many times, Bruce's endless rhetorical questions

- refusal to check egos at the door and actually call the ****ing game. If I was blind I'd have no idea what was happening

- congratulating other commentators on a "great call"

 

[Johnny Bananas]

Everything BT does.

 

[theyellowsash]

Anything by macevaney or derwayne

 

[Turnover]

Use of the word bugbears is a start

 

[Quivorir]

“They need a safe word”

Baffling how nobody has yet to get in his ear about what that actually means.

In what context has he said this?

 

[Cold Sober]

The 'Ablett struggling' narrative Bruce was trying to push last night while he was keeping us in it in the first half was something very special. Tried to save face by trying to pretend he worked his way into the game late. Convinced some of them go into games with a predetermined agenda and just run with it no matter what. Stop trying to create headlines and call the game.

Jumped on to say exactly the same, well stated

If Big Footy barred idiots there'd be no-one here.

Right on cue, he is a great commentator amirite?

Biggest bugbear is they do commentary.
It’s on television, I can watch what’s happening. I want analysis. How are team X trying to attack / defend? How is Team Y countering it? What’s their strategy at stoppages?

You are an example of what I was saying.
I never mentioned any support for Jobe, in fact the best way to watch footy is with a thing called a mute button.

Thank you I do understand what you were saying, but it was kind of you to make sure.

You are an example of what I was saying with right on cue. Have a great night.

Too many to mention, but the one that got me the most tonight was (repeatedly) "he's got a lovely long leg".

be carful what you wish for. How bad would it be if they let the commentary team loose with the pen or whatever it is the use to mark fielding position's on the cricket telecast

 

[wagstaff]

All broadcasters do this, but when they say how accurate someone is in front of goal, then they miss, and they think it's height of hilarity joking about 'commentators curse'. Hear that gag about a zillion times a year.

 

[damochandler]

Calling kicks wood tools, golf clubs and medical procedures. A kick is a kick

 

[Dinsdale]

For a long time they have been barracking instead of commentating, frothing over whoever is in the lead.

writing their own narrative rather than just calling the game.
