Anthony Breeze THE AFL world was rocked this week, not only on the field but off it as well. The great AFL commentator Bruce McAvaney announced his retirement for game day commentating, effective immediately. Every AFL fan who has listened to a McAvaney call will find it difficult to listen to a grand final without hearing his iconic voice. McAvaney has called over a 1000 AFL games and 20 grand finals and when the game was close he would put chills down your spine when your team kicked a goal. He formed a great partnership with co-commentator Dennis Cometti where both men would just bounce off each other during a call making it a memorable game to listen to.
