Thanks for that.

What a difference. The crowd noise is so much better and I'm surprised it's better without the umpire noise as well.

TV crowd noise is turned down low now

really irritates me. You miss so much energy


There's something really strange about hearing commentary that is undoubtedly from the radio (especially the classic AM sound) but seeing vision at the same time.

Just a reminder too of how brilliant Jack Watts is.

It's the one percenters that go unnoticed. He solved one of Hilbert's 23 problems at 3/4 time. Of course it didn't make the papers.

Never tire of watching that. Great to hear commentators that know our player's names and aren't simply talking about themselves.

Loved the "That's it! They've won!" after Tyson's first goal.

thankyou , watched every second of that again !

 


Absolutely brilliant. Up there with Round 22 1987 and the Elimination vs North and the Semi vs Sydney in 87. Never ever tire of watching those. A key link - the incomparable Tim Lane. "The G was awash with red and blue...." etc etc Fantastic! By the way, that number 4 can play a bit as well....

The umpire noise drives me insane! All you hear is then yelling play on or maxy, maxy! Adds very little and takes away plenty. If umpire explanations needed the commentators can listen to the umpire shyte.

Tyson is a star. Will be an absolute gun with Lewis beside him and a rising Oliver, Petracca, Salem, Brayshaw and Viney.


.........McCann the spoiler, Williams the swooper.......

I wasn't a big fan of Tony Leonard when he first started calling, but he's definitely improved over the years.

He and Tim make for a good combination, and I particularly enjoy listening to them call a close game. 

Thanks for posting. 

Edit: Just on the crowd noise, if you look up at the radio boxes in the Olympic stand you'll see that they have mics pointing out the window to capture the atmosphere. It works in our favour because we own that side of the ground. 

 

This is so good. Thank you. This is what TV broadcasting should use as a template in my opinion.

Tony Leonard will explode one afternoon calling a game. Let us never forget his phone calls on a saturday morning.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Sunday’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • PREGAME: Fremantle

    After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
