My Favourite shout at the Telly...."Shut Up. Bruce"

I'm sick of the Too much analysis... pulling the game apart like flies pinned on a science cutting board.

let us get back to reactive footy with spontaneous inspiring football efforts & reactive humour & laughter ... tired of all this science in footy commentary.  let us be,,,  footy channels, or we'll turn off & go do something else.

I thought Ian Robinson was a great commentator and going right back.........Jack Edwards    They just called the play as it happened....Called the right players.........None of the 'Special Comments' men  explaining what happened 4 plays ago and what they should have done (dermi is the worst at that.)

here here Bossdog... I totally agree.

 

let the game get back to a spontaneous affair.

And from public life in general. 

Unfortunately these days what with digital HD TV and its slight delay, and digital radio or internet radio with bigger delays, it can be difficult to turn the TV volume off and listen to the radio commentary. 

This is easy fixed..

If you have Foxtel or a smart tv with usb recording.. You can pause the TV long enough to sync up your radio station of choice on a digital radio!

Between 1-5 (25 frames per sec)....seconds is the delay

done on purpose to stop exactly what you want to do!!


Let's face it - both television and radio commentary is mostly aimed as children and idiots. The number of good commentators and/or commentary teams is a bare fraction of the total number of commentators. There is simply not enough talent to cover all the broadcast outlets.

Oh yes i know you can do it. 

But the average viewer doesn't they just accept the delay. That is why the TV Stations do it

 

if the tv delay > radio delay then you are stuffed. you can't speed up the video

I wonder if you could use a digital radio and delay that feed instead.


Nobody work works for Channel 7.

Except Denis Cometti, as any Ex West Perth player must be good.

I think Sandy Roberts is on the money and very good, over the years he has been nothing but passionate when Melbourne games were on IMO!

Ox is good.Darcy is good,Eddie is good bar Pies games.

Commetti is an absolute [censored] of the highest order.I just dont like the way he adds in little snide comments all the time. (Done it for years)

Dermie over analyses games...but hes ok.

Macavaney is a moron

BT is a moron who antagonises Richo during games on purpose for ratings because Bt sucks at what he does.

Russell is rubbish.

Brayshaw makes me cringe when he talks...its like being forced to listen to a cat slowly dying..

All in all, Id take Ed,Darcey & Sandy Roberts as a team IMO.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
