Channel 7 commentary whinge thread 2018-19

[Leeda]

**** off he needs to fade out with test cricket.

short term injury.. you need to lose traction with the test game.. you obviously aren't feeling it... so just shove off..

 

[parano1a]

How would Bruce, BT and Hamish go calling BBL?

 

[eltrain]

Ponting is an absolute pleasure to listen to. His tactical analysis in these T20s is second to none. Blewett is also quite astute and provides great input. Slater though. **** me dead I don’t think I’ve ever heard a worse individual commentary performance than his tonight. Half the posts in the match thread were complaints about Slater’s commentary ffs. He’s going to turn a lot of casual viewers off if Seven don’t reign him in.

Fade out with test cricket? Seriously?

His tendency to move away from what’s going on in the game into little annoying conversations and inability to shut up is the opposite of what we need in the test matches, leave that to Punter, Blewett, Katich etc. At least in the BBL he livens things up a bit, even if his style gets tedious

Screaming like an idiot, laughing at his own s**t jokes and talking non stop isn’t livening things up for mine.

 

[Leeda]

elevating everything with the perfect commentary is dubious and people can dock your pay with a second version of your best work..

the ex players they have are good flem.. punter, jb.. and so on.. we don't need any more and we certainly don't need a memory train.

I’d certainly prefer the above traits in BBL than in the calmer environment of test cricket

and this is why the perfectionists are looking to a level playing field.. however, the bbleage is good enough for those who want to burn the candle at both ends.

Anyone who has breath in them would be frothing over Isa. She's smart, played the game at the highest level and asks intelligent questions to the test legends sitting alongside her. I don't mind Lane and Alison at all but Slater, McGrath and Fleming having nothing to offer and spoil the 7 coverage for me. Isa has everything to offer and I would rather pay for fox then watch 7.

could listen to her talk cricket all day

 

[MJG14]

Who thought it was a good idea to have Sam McClure as part of the Big Bash coverage? He is intolerable enough on footy coverage.

 

[eddiesmith]

I notice Bruce is apart of the Boxing Day Test promos, are we getting Bruce to host???

How long until they bring in Roaming Brian?

 

[The Speaker]

Pretty sure they've said he'll be doing interviews throughout the summer.

 

[workhorse]

I feel dirty saying it but I reckon I'd love to hear Bruce commentate the Boxing Day test. Just one test. Imagine the fawning over VIIIRRRRAAAAAATTTT.

You just get the feeling Australia need a wicket here, don't you?

He'd find a use for "off that step"

Where's Dennis when i need him?! That was, ohh! That's what it was!

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Haha! I know he isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but I love Bruce. So enthusiastic. Was much better with Dennis, obviously.

 

[Heisenberg_]

Slater is back tonight...they’d better have tapped him on the shoulder that he’s annoying the entire viewership

 

[swanssince2002]

Bruce during an LBW shout: Oh the ball caressed the pads! That should be out.
