A.F.L. Thread II

[Spikey]

just realised our match isn't gonna be on 7 #****YouC7

 

[ajdude]

yeah wojack's still around, played in last year's premiership but he's been injured for most of the pre-season

and i'm not sure which commentary team i least hate, dennis/bruce/harley/whoever vs bt/richo/darcy/ling/kirk vs fox footy's finest, bt was really struggling saturday night

 

[Spikey]

He's like a Winderlich. But good.

yeah. but he's like 47yo. and not fletcher. i just thought he quit. seems an injustice that Ottens has quit and he hasn't tbh

Couple of positions up for grabs. Can't split them. Hansen and Grima being out is ghey tstl. Essendon will/should go tall in the forward line.

Surprisingly good injury list for us. Winderlich the only annoying loss. I'm guessing if he were fit we'd be rid of McVeigh. Oh well.

Doubt we'll go that tall. Carlisle could be an option, maybe even as sub, but I'll reckon we'll just go Hurley/Crameri/Resting ruckman. So not that tall.

I look forward to Essendon performing terribly against North again

Ps God, if L. Anthony kills it I'll literally kill cameron white.

 

[Spikey]

Really, both commentary teams are a disappointment. Kirk and Ling's interaction was cringeworthy

 

[vic_orthdox]

Kirk and Ling will get better. I thought Ling was OK, Kirk's just on another planet. Future Malcolm Blight.

I like.

 

[ajdude]

and darcy was dull as ever

i suppose dennis and bruce offer the nostalgia value or something but they try too hard these days...i don't mind anthony hudson i guess but dwayne outweighs any good on that team

 

[benchmark00]

Hudson is the biggest pole smoker going around.

Kirk wearing those converses and jeans was a genuine wtf moment.

 

[ajdude]

come on he's not THAT bad, i mean yeah he's not great but look who he has to be compared with

 

[benchmark00]

Obv a Geelong fan.

 

[Spikey]

darcy has a nice voice for it (compared to Lloyd who has a terrible voice/speaking style for it) but jesus what he says.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Nah, Huddo's alright as a caller.

Pretty happy Ch 10's off my television outside of him though. Christian, Quartermain, Walls, Lane. Bleurgh.

 

[Spikey]

Didn't mind Lane outside of Carlton. Christian & Quartermain gave me nightmares

 

[ajdude]

Obv a Geelong fan.

me or him? both are a yes, but he doesn't sound like a pretentious **** and he's not tony shaw

i personally miss kelli underwood's sweet sweet voice, it just melted in my ears, in all seriousness though it ruined the 09 grand final, i can never watch that again

 

[benchmark00]

Can't believe anyone actually likes Hudson. He needs to learn from Bruce and call the game and not try and double up as an expert commentator. He was reasonable on radio when he was with Rex because he knew his role, now he's just an epic punish imo. Channel Ten were all so dire.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Just me, or is listening to Lloyd like having Silvagni on tv again?

 

[benchmark00]

Just have no personality in their voices.

The anti-Dipper.

 

[Jono]

Hudson is the biggest pole smoker going around.

Stop bagging every single skinny AFL commentator.

 

[benchmark00]

Never!

 

[BoyBrumby]

Think someone from the styling dept needs to have a word with Ling about the Barnet. 'Snot 1994 anymore, fella.

Throwing stones from glass houses as I may be.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Speak for yourself.
