im with you! they were terrible! Almost broke my new bravia!thejiggingsaint wrote:It was bad enough missing-out on being there at the Dome, seeing my pals and enjoying a great win. The commentary team on Ten however, had me tearing what few hairs I've got left out of my head. Lane has to be one of the most supercillious creatures in broadcasting today. Its clear to me that "Quarterbrain" is his keen apprentice. I turned the damn volume down in the end!!!!!! Am I alone in thinking this way?
I'm in London visiting my family atm. Still got to watch it live, which was a plus, but had to suffer those idiots commentating.thejiggingsaint wrote:It was bad enough missing-out on being there at the Dome, seeing my pals and enjoying a great win.

It's pretty simple really!
I would have thought it matters as much as anything matters.TimeToShineFellas wrote:Nope quite sane, compared to some.123 wrote:Are you mad??TimeToShineFellas wrote:If you don't want to listen to them, turn the volume down...........

They call it how they want to call it. Why blow a gasket getting upset about it?
So we didnt get the rub of the green with the commentary. Does it matter in the end?
what gets to me is this is entertainment. I love Tripple M etc because they entertain and take the piss. Who wants to listen to serious dry old hacks that have chips on their shoulder. I want fun - its a weekend liven up!Otiman wrote:This is my biggest peeve with the delayed broadcast. You can't choose between the CH7/10 commentary and the Radio.

What is wrong with the Olympics. Greatest 2 weeks every 4 years. Love them and at least this year we can get proper sleep as they have similar times to us.TimeToShineFellas wrote:Just on commentary, with Bruce "The Special One" McAvaney heading off to Beijing for the pathetic disgrace that IS the Olympic Games, can we please please please get Sandy Roberts back commentating games.
Now there's some biased St Kilda commentary I could handle!
Yeah, a rare chance to have the olympics in our time zone and they put the swimming finals on at lunch time, just to please American TVplugger66 wrote:What is wrong with the Olympics.
