Foxtel Commentary

[Kreator]

pfft lucky i dont have Foxtel. I listened to MMM Gary Lyon and James Brayshaw were in suprisingly good form, never liked James Brayshaw on the footy show but hes good on radio

Before that i had 3AW on with Walls and Rex Hunt. Walls wasn't THAT bad, hes been alot worse he was still crappy but not the crappy i've grown to resent in the past few years. Rex Hunt is gold though.

 

[porpoise]

Tony Shaw ALWAYS barracks for the team that plays the Crows. But hey, he's always been scum

No Doubt !

 

[macca23]

LOL Sounds like shaw has a new love in Gibbs my god he gets excited when he gets the ball. Have you heard him call a hawks game, When hodge gets the ball you can hear his zipper get pulled down hahahahahaha

He certainly did.

Just on Gibbs - how do people see his progress since being drafted as the number 1 draft pick??

Handy player to date, but nothing particularly special IMO.

An elite talent being ruined by a sub-par organisation.

Wouldn't be playing in the backline for the Crows, put it that way. The talent doesn't disappear, it's all about development.

"Goodwin just took a blatant dive there... he does that a bit, Simon Goodwin"

I mean seriously, what a chop.

Just got back to Adelaide from the game and this is making me not want to watch the game on the IQ. Our run of games with the amature foxtel coverage must be nearly over?

Its been the same all year. Not only that but the club can't be happy with the lack of television exposure in Melbourne as support in Melbourne is something the clubs mentioned over the last couple of years. I guess while 7 and 10 have access to the games into Adelaide there is no reaoson for them to want to pick up our games nationally.

 

[Mismatched]

There was a ripper at quarter time...

'McLeod has had 10 possessions, but they werent like JUDDS*!!!!!!!!'

* Said with orgasmic inflection.

Was it just me or did they go mighty quiet when Mcleod gave Judd a little lesson when they went head to head, but then did Judd kick a 40 metre snap off his wrong foot when the game was in the balance? No, but he did kick a couple of nice consolation goals I believe.

Seriously though, the comentary was terrible, lucky the mob I was watching it with made enough noise that we missed most of the crap. I also noticed the free kicks in the 4th, but funnily enough, failed to notice it in the first when the umps were crucifying us, eg Basset for laying a fingernail on Fisher I think it was.

The Triple M teams are always fun, don't know whether its because they have an endless supply of alcohol with them or whether its because they actually have a little thing called personality, because you never get the all out love fests that you get on TV, they don't always agree with each other and have opinions of their own.

Not just Melbourne. The Crows have now played 6 H&A games and I've only been able to see one of them. Don't have Foxtel (and don't want it - complete waste of money if not for the footy). Only game I've seen was at a mate's place - and he DOES have Foxtel. Not one solitary game on FTA in that time. Disgusting.

Last year I was doing my shopping at West Lakes and was driving home down Brebner drive when this nuff nuff stepped straight into the road infront of me crossing over to make his way to AAMI stadium. I slammed on the breaks and avoided hitting the bugger. Only too late did I realise it was Tony Shaw and that I could have made the ultimate sacrifce by running the ____er over.

Commentary was horrible today. Judd made some shocking mistakes which were ignored. Loved Johncock making him look like a passenger on the members wing in the first quarter. Campbell is a tool and Pikcering is so compromised its not funny. That was one article Rucci got right.

You do realise that if you'd braked a little bit later you would've been showered with wealth and women from across the nation

I hate to say it guys but we wont be covered by any other station then FOXTEL until May 30th, Rd 10 when we play Essendon on the Friday night and that wont be any better as its done by Seven

 

[Alex99]

The thing that shits me is when they start to barrack.

They can say what they like positive or negative but once they start to moan and grown regarding passages of play and then barrack, this shits me no end.

Every station is bad as one another, no point in laying blame on fox.

Like the crap that was coming out of there mouth last night about Geelong was not funny. Great game last night but spoilt by the buffoons in the commentary box.

However I must say Nathan Buckley is very impressive in his role with channel 7.

 

[2notepockets]

Burton running into goal in the 1st quarter and shaw starts screaming out "How Far!" and then claims justice that he grazed the post.

start of the 2nd shaw claiming the crows lack penetration litterally 2 seconds later burton from 60 to tippett at head of the square, goooooooal!!!

Nathan Buckley has no right to be in the media.

He's intelligent, non-partisan, eloquent, makes sense and thoroughly understands the finer points of what's happening in the game.

We're certainly not used to that from a commentator.

God, i forgot about that one. Disgraceful.

 

[PainKiller]

Yeah Foxtel don't like us much do they, I'm still getting over the Bulldogs cheersquad from round 1, you could picture them having a group hug when Bock missed that last shot

 

[Seanason]

channel 10 commentators should all be shot for overuse of the term "running the lines".

I swear they used it in every sentence.

 

[bigman]

Anf you think Tony Shaw is bad.

Frawley was absolutley shocking when it came to the Hawthorn game.

He never commented on the Crows at all.

There was only one team out on the field that day even when we were just behind in the first quarter.

Thats because him & Dennis Commetti can relax as they know that after 2009 they'll probably still have a job even after Channel 7 loose the Rights in 2009

 

[Dagless]

It's a joke. Why do we have to put up with this shit every week?

lol you're lucky Jako doesn't get to call your home games every week

Shaw was a bias ___ And it pissed me to high hell yesterday

Off topic quite a bit and will make sense to a few who watched the NBA on fox yesterday but Jalen Rose was extremely articulate and his argument with Steven A Smith was well through out.

It was a major surprise considering the junk that comes out of Kenny Smith and Reggie Miller mouths from time to time.

 

[Sir Vlado]

Everytime Shaw said something biased I couldnt help shouting for him to shut up and I felt like ditching the remote control at him when he was on the screen.

Just disgraceful Shaw.

 

[MarksGirl-kbcrowgirl]

So the easiest way to shut them up.....turn on the radio

 

[Sir Vlado]

I had to go to get a haircut so I turned on the radio on my mobile phone and the commentary on Triple M with Brayshaw, Taylor, Lyon etc. definitely was better than listening to Shaw. I actually got a laugh from the radio commentary.
