Don’t they just love it when we lose? It’s party time, especially for BT the big turd. They are easily pleased in life if that’s all they need

[inxs88]

Pathetic abomination of a crew:

* Hodge: hates Collingwood, is a bogan and ain't buying his $$ ad advice!
* Holmes: re-invented the pronounciation of her surname to avoid being compared to a porn star icon
* Richo: is simply dumb with a sub 75 IQ
* BT is just vaudevillian and a Pies hater
* Brayshaw: averaged 32 at the Adelaide Oval in its halcyon batting years. Enough said.

The prosecution rests your honour!!

If they told that fat turd to f^ck off in the change rooms after our next win [whenever the maggots don't swing momentum against us; good luck with that...] then perhaps he might get the picture...

Now this makes sense to me. I would love to see the big turd getting the sulks and run crying to his carer!

I'm grateful I was at the ground so I didn't need to listen to Ch7 commentators.

[Mr Miyagi]

They were full on barracking for bulldogs last night on Fox/Kayo

Was at the game, but have to watch replay so I can gather evidence to debate with a doggie supporter at work,
No Kayo so will have to suffer the Ch7 biases.

Wether it's the Commentary team, AFL and umpies their all against us ...

It's US against the world ... need to fight hard and F'k em

SIDE by SIDE

Go Pies

I'm seriously starting to consider using the mute-button the remote.

I'm also seriously considering terminating foxtel, and for that matter washing my hands of AFL completely if this shit standard of umpiring continues unabated.

The channel 7 commentary raised my blood pressure to a very high level for a quite a while. My brother suggested muting the commentary - I found this a very satisfactory answer to the problem.

[woodys_world69]

kind of related.. by why are coach press conferences after the game so timid?

What happened to Robbo asking malthouse some hard questions? lol

all they do these days is lob up easy generic questions at the coaches and Fly swats it away with ease. Its like the reporters interviewing them dont even watch the game and have pre-written questions

Mate, mute the pricks, I ssure do, saves your poor blood pressure rising, and lets face it, when your at the match, you havent got some dickheads inside you head telling you what you can see yourself, who needs the dorks ? I also put on a bit of ambient music on in background, makes a far better television experience for me.

I mute them but have the subtitles on.

One of those clowns, don't know which one, said when Noble was subbed off, "I'm very surprised by that, Noble has been great tonight..."

[Bucks5]

Yeah that was Matthew Richardson. Noble was good, 4 goal assists.............. for WB.

[think better]

They seem to have a script for the game that they are going to stick with no matter what.

Friday night the script was all about Darcy and what a great young talent he is. When Darcy cleaned up Maynard it barely raised a ripple other than - "he's a young player and should have gone for a spoil not a bump". John Ralph was the only one to say he will get two weeks for it.

Brian Taylor still regularly MC’s Collingwood events and deep down is probably a Collingwood man, but as a commentator he should be impartial. I think in his efforts to show impartiality, he has over-corrected. By a LONG way. He now mostly comes across as anti-Collingwood. At the end of the day he’s actually just not a very good commentator. Bruce and Dennis on Friday nights were the gold standard. I never found either of them to be anti-Pies. I miss them.

I agree with all of that.Brice and Dennis were the ultimate professionals,BT not so much.Apart from being bombastic and over bearing,he also has an annoying tendency to be not in the moment,rabbiting on about the crowd figures or some other useless stats,while the game is going on.He always seems to be one step behind the play,

And don’t get me started on Luke Hodge.Such a wet blanket,especially when we’re winning or get a free kick.I don’t think he’s ever got over last year’s grand final result.It obviously burns him
