What is your favourite AFL telecast?

Postby hearts on fire » Sun Apr 06, 2008 8:41 pm

what is your favourite AFL telecast?
who has the best commentators?
who has the best picture quality?
who has the best replays?
who has the best special features?
who has the best camera work?

I don't mind the channel 10 commentators but their voices get quite annoying so ill probably have to say the Foxtel commentators are the best.

The best picture quality is channel 10, nice and clear and decent camera work.

I have to say channel 7 have the best post-match broadcast. They explain the game in detail for atleast half an hour.

Overall, i think Foxtel is the best.

I gave up watching on 7 tonight and listened to the radio after they played up to five ads between most goals! Totally unwatchable crap, just because they paid so much for AFL broadcast rights this gives them the mandate to wreck the flow of a game?

Foxtel broadcasted the match but channel seven decided what ads and how many to play during the delayed telecast they screened.

Foxtel's coverage is easily the best despite the picture quality not being up to the same level as seven or ten.

Winners was a good show, and it was at the same time when the SANFL highlights were done very well as well, "The Big Replay" i think it was called, with "Daisy", Peter Marker, Rick Keegan etc etc.
