Tim lane`s comments during game.

Andrew Mahers commentary was bloody annoying.

Cant wait for channel 9 to get the footy rights again. Channels 7 & 10 are killing the game.

Yeah channel 9 were good, what utter bollocks.

Eddie McGuire is worse than 1000 Tim Lanes.
 
i gotto say the standard of footy commentary on tv has been nothing short of ordinary since ch 7 lost the footy in 2001 and ch 9 and 10 hired radio commentators who state the bleeding obvious and are just as boring as f****.

they need to take a leaf out of the soccer commentators. martin tyler is brilliant and simon hill is the best sports commentator in australia by the length of springvale rd.

Couldnt stand the sobbing noises when Colligwood were losing. The best commentator to crack it when the Tigers were losing was the great Jack Dyer. He'd just stop commentating all together.

...and the best of the lot passed away this year at a young age.
 
Lane wont be happy until it's a non contact sport, his soft *smile* views are a danger to this great game, I just hope no-ones listening to him.

Agree I for one am glad he is not commentating. Too biase. Used the coverage of games to have a crack at other teams & over exagerate interpretations of free kicks that were not there or disagree on ones given against the scumwood.

A total Tool with the support of his bias mates, Pinocchios puppets backing him to secure their jobs.

Yeah that worked. Thanks for that mellow!

My God hearing that again makes me realise what a complete wanker Lane is. ::)

Someone should call talkback & bring this to his attention.

Would love to see what he says in his defence
Tim was "overcome with emotion".

The clip should be played every time his name is mentioned.

I don't think it is that bad, Haven't heard Tim Lane so cannot comment. But on Eddie, he has passion for his club (who here doesn't) he gets excited when they are up and dirty when they aren't (who here doesn't). The fact that it spills over to his commentating makes him more genuine and IMO interesting to listen to (especially when the mudpies are down) as he calls with the passion you and I have for our own club.

The fact that he used to sink the boot every now and then annoyed me but then again who hasn't kicked us in the last 10 years?

He would say he was summing up the feeling of the game, and that he was completely without bias. At least Eddie admits his bias, this fool trys to pretend he is holier than thao.
