OPINION: What a deplorable TV commentary of the Eagles v West Perth clash yesterday. Now I'm not a supporter of either team but for Channel 7 anchor man, Mark Readings, it was not one of your finest moments. Talk about a biased call, was there any other team other than the Eagles out there playing yesterday Mark? You must get intimidated having a former Eagle sitting next to you, that's about the only conclusion I can come up with. Some of your classics, "the Eagles are dominating the game", yet the scores are just 4 points apart and only one kick separates them, and then in the last few minutes, after the Cardies just hit the front with a great goal from that little ripper of a skinny kid, "if WP get up to win this it'll be the biggest heist in history". Bloody hell, there's only one kick in it for a huge part of the game and you just continued to dribble garbage, did you ever see the other team out there, they were wearing the blue and red guernseys? All day you raved on about how superior the Eagles were, it was just sickening. I think poor old Cometti felt embarrassed at times, he was very subdued, and he's not about to say otherwise. Don't ask him, he's a gentleman. We appreciate the TV coverage but we'd also appreciate an unbiased commentary as well (by Chris Preedy, first published as a Facebook post, 1 September 2019).
