Commentators who make my ears bleed

[OnTheRocks]

Don't like certain commentators? Stinking up game day threads by whinging about commentators every week?
Get in here and vent with others who share your passion.

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

Dunstall is breaking my heart.

I support hawthorn because of him and I hate watching games when he is commentating.

It's so sad

Dunstall is breaking my heart.

It's so sad

He’s carrying on like such a w***er tonight

 

[Jimmy the Ghost]

I can only watch tv footy on mute now

Or when Quarters does Hawks radio

Speaking of which, i think he is on AFL nation tonight

 

[Hawthorn1971]

Dunstall for me is the Greatest Hawk.

But as a commentator, give it a spell.

 

[Mr Meeseeks]

He’s carrying on like such a w***er tonight

Tonight?

The guy has been actively cheering against us for years.

 

[TheExtractorFactor]

He tries too hard to not show pro-Hawthorn bias and ends up going the other way

 

[Hawker_85]

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Tonight?

The guy has been actively cheering against us for years.

At first, I thought he was trying to prove he's not biased and going the other way, but not so sure anymore. He really does appear to have a bee in his bonnet about the Hawks.

Why anyone continues to watch fox footy is mind boggling, dunstall is a donkey on the mic, you may as well go through some water boarding then put up with negative spew for 4qr

 

[LRobbo]

Still Dwayne Russell for me.
Worst in the business

Listening to BT and/or JB is not an appealing alternative.

One is some Cole’s brand choccy milk, the other is rancid bile

 

[Philhawk]

Dunstall is breaking my heart.

Could not agree more.

I had a ****ing life size cardboard cut out of him in my room as a kid but I cannot ****ing stand him commentating us now.

Gunston scores from Ginni assist - let’s pot Ginni for not taking the “moment”.

Dick.

 

[jumpingjai]

I started watching the game on fox but had to switch because Dunstall had about six negative things to say about hawthorn in the first ten minutes.
It has become unwatchable with him commentating.

 

[Scooter_1968]

Tonight?

The guy has been actively cheering against us for years.

Bullshit

 

[Hrvat Hawks]

Dunstall is an absolute flog of a commentator along with everyone of them commentating tonight. We need a crowd noise only option.

 

[SSSSSS]

Listening to the Chief really saps the enjoyment out of footy.

Not just Hawk games. He always has a bone to pick.

I'll take Dermie's passionate waffling and enthusiasm over him any day of the week.

 

[Hodgey 15]

This is the first time this season I found myself watching the Channel 7 broadcast for the majority of game. Half way through that 2nd quarter I had to switch over. Except for bloody ads I surprising liked it more than Fox's crap tonight.

Yeah Richo still drones on but at least Cornes was bearable as opposed to a certain Fox caller (looking at you Chief).

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Don’t usually watch Fox so am spared Dunstall.

BT is the worst for me. The way he pronounces certain of our players names really gets on my goat, Dee-ah and Broost (‘oo’ sound as in chook) are just two examples. Does he think he’s being clever or is he just an imbecile?

Always about what a player should’ve done, where he should’ve been, blah blah. You’re spot on. I hate commentators that used to play that seem to have forgotten how hard footy is to actually play. It looks so easy on TV when you’ve got the perfect view of where next possession should go

 

[ahhhhhh]

Dunstall

I’m with you on this one. I used to shitcan ch7 and would choose Fox every day of the week. Channel 7 is much better this year (if you can block out BT trying to be funny, Brayshaw saying every contest is ‘broken up’, or Hame just being a knob in general). Cornesy is the best in the business.

 

[hardway]

Dunstall won’t correct himself when he was wrong. For example the Ginni arm chop free kick.

 

[DogDaySonny]

I turn down the tv sound and listen to 3aw. I can’t believe that I like a Cat and Bomber, but Bartel and Loyd are calm and insightful. They actually describe what’s happening in the game without the histrionics.
