As Usual when you watch a Pies Game on TV that the Commentators sound like they are from the Opposition Cheersquad
Always. I have tried the old trick of watching a silent screen with the radio commentary and if you can get past the time disparity between the action and the commentary kicking in, I find it a better option for my health and blood pressure. I can’t stand listening or pandering to people living the lie of pretending to be neutral but patently hoping that Collingwood will get done.

Does anyone remember the drama and controversy when there was a perception that Eddie McGuire might have been biased in his commentary???

I find it simply shocking that a guy like Dunstall gets to commentate in an obviously biased fashion and nothing is said!!

If I’m honest I don’t like Buckely commentating Collingwood games. I know he is clearly doing it for insight and is expected to be biased but for mine it just comes off wrong.
Give me bucks on any other game, he is insightful and clearly knows his stuff, it just doesn’t sit right during pies games for mine.

Hope he kicks 6 from frees against Geelong
The outrage from sleepy hollow supporters will be fantastic
Especially the Duckwood fans

It’ll be hilarious watching Geelong supporters boo him if he does a Selwood

Sounds a Good Idea.

Glad I go to the Victorian/Melbourne Games so I don't hear any Commentary

Just discovered some old news footage of Ginnivan's father comparing him to Breust before he was drafted.

After last nights loss at post match presser Fly was asked about his hair colour

“I don’t care if he has pink hair so long as he fulfills his role” said Craig

He resembles Billy Idol.

I saw it and went, what a clown.... then I remembered when we we're about 15, one of the boys knocked some hair colour off a hairdresser and we had the brilliant idea of getting some peroxide from the chemist.... mine wasn't too bad, a bit yellow, old mate Seans was the best, his went orange.

It fitted perfect with our 5 earing in each ear , DB's and faberges.

Just like Ginnivan, we were all immature boys once.

There’s no one hat fits all in humans

One can exude flamboyant character
Another can be more introverted

For the excercise let’s look at Ginnivan & Bianco & for our needs going fwd it’s the flamboyant one I think
