How bad are channel 7?

I'm coming to like the different attitude coming to the commentary.
They aren't talking as much. We can see what is going on. Timmy's grunts every time Richmond stuffed up were great. I just winced. He keeps is short and sharp. But he's concise.
Bruce is too old school for me now. Seems almost superflous, except for his stats. A bit too excitable.
 
Don't quite know how bad they are but I watched the footy show this morning, they were doing a review of our game, and no footage. Surprisingly the game of the Dons v St Kilda had heaps of footage... that game was on Fox.

I wonder if our game is on FTA or Fox next week if there will be any footage on the footy show next sunday?
 
Terrible actually, to many commercials, well i think we all know why they need to recoup their money but they are doing themselves no favours with their footy commentary set-up "more so special comments and boundary" .

As for Watson...he is useless...and his interview questions to coaches and players are rubbish.

Loved it at the end of the third when Timmy asked Rocket if they 'were in panic mode yet' or words to that effect. Have to be one of the dumbest questions I have ever heard. :spin

Timmy and Schwarz are absolutely rubbish as commentators, especially Schwarz. Den Den and Bwooce are still pretty good value though.

I do like their flashbacks at half time, we've had big bags from KB and Roach featured in the last two weeks, keep em coming 7 :clap
 
Here in Adelaide, Sunday arvo games we used to get libve are on at 3pm now too. This is a disgrzce, this TV deal has hurt all fans even Foxtel viewers here in SA, we miss out on whole games sometimes when Foxtel cover a Crows/Port game. Give it back to how it was already.
 
I wish commentators would actually learn the correct pronunciation of words if they're going to use them. Just on the Freo/Melbourne game, another strike of "dour" pronounced so as it rhymes with "sour", when it's supposed to be pronounced like "tour".

All offers of a life gratefully accepted... :spin

I don't mind 'em too much.

Glad to get away from those Chunnel Nein clowns and Mr Ed.

Great to see Roachy when he kicked 11 against the Dogs. Did you notice KB flashing past in case the marks were spilled? They knew how to crumb in those days!
