In case you're wondering, just say his name quickly putting the same emphasis on each syllable - you'll get it.

Absolutely spot on. Peter Donegan (not to be confused with that ABC radio knob with the skull face - Dan Lonergan - if you don't believe me see below) is all class.MagpieBat wrote:On the flip side, who are our BEST commentators? As much as I love the VFL, Peter Donegan is wasted at that level. Well read and across the detail of the game, never forgets a player's name, and has a sense of humour that makes ABC football coverage the best, an ironic twinkle in the eye, ratrher than the fart and d!ck jokes that other commentators make. And he is one of us!
I second that about Sandy Roberts, and I don't mind Drew Morphett (a former Sydneysider who has well and truly adopted Melbourne).

Listening to Tom Harley offering comments on the Geelong game. Has anyone got a thinner sounding voice than him? Speaks too fast without any gravitas. He's also got a skull face!
And please don't get me started on how those McLachlan brothers get gigs with Seven and the AFL. What's Hamish's footy background? What the hell did Dillon ever do? Silly question, Adrian Anderson proves you don't have to have any links with real footy to get a gig at the AFL.

I watched the replay this morning and he had nothing good to say about us. It was almost as if we were the losing side last night with the way he acted.
Not surprised though considering the majority of the media hates us.

For all the crap Eddie used to get about his bias, at least he was honest. Most of these knob jockeys when accused will go on about how impartial they are. I remember that pig Dunstall a few years ago on radio admit he "hates us" but then say "I could show you several examples where I praised Collingwood" this was an utter bold faced lie.
WELLLINGHAM ROVES IT....AND KICKS THE GOAL!!!!
SWAN'S GOING TO KICK A GOAL. THEY'RE HOME YOU'D THINK I KNOW IT'S A LONG WAY TO GO BUT THEY'RE KILLING THEM NOW!!

Nearly ran him over a few weeks back when he ran across a busy road in Geelong, how many points would that have got me? Buggar

Mate, Foxtel still get the 7 commentators unfortunately. So, our games was telecast on both 7 and Fox Footy. The only difference was that 7 go to an ad whereas Fox Footy show replays after a goal is kicked.Magpie Jack wrote:The Channel 7 commentary team is pushing me closer and closer to pay TV. Bruce with his ridiculous, meaningless stats. Notice how the only stat he didn't come up with on Friday night was the free kick tally. Wonder why they didn't mention that one?
Use your cash on something else.

What we need is our own TV Channel. Commentators .... Michael Christian, Lou Richards and Eddie McGuire with no ads. I'd gladly pay a hundred a month for that.

Just a vent…
Try to watch and rewatch the game the damn commentators
Collingwood hating luke Hodge .. free kick but not worth a goal
Mathew Richardson never had an original thought bin his life
damn Taylor’ daicos threw that … every damn handball these days is a throw
damn Brayshaw enough said
Every ducking week
