Commentators - who do they barrack for?

Featured Replies

Does anyone know any other commentators that barrack for who?

I know Dennis Commetti- Melbourne supporter.

 

I thought Denis was a WCE supporter ( I know he is a big Robbo fan)

Anthony Hudson - Geelong

Andrew Maher - Carlton

Mike Sheahan - Melbourne

Caroline Wilson - Richmond

Tim Lane - Carlton

Peter Landy - Hawthorn

Drew Morphett - Carlton I think

Eddie McGuire - need I answer

Francis Leech - Stkilda

Mark Fine - StKilda

Bruce McAvaney - Neutral

honestly mate if u dont know who Robert Walls barracks for then u must never watch the footy.

that knobjockey has the uncanny ability of bringing his team into the commentary at every opportunity, it actually makes me sick

You will notice I did not include any past players or coaches. I am sure Caro goes for Rich - not Melbourne.

Bruce mcavaney- not sure to be honest if he is an essendon supporter

Example why i think he is bombers supporter

"Laycock LUCAS LUCAS GOAL! THE BOMBERS HAVE DONE IT, UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!"

"RAMA HES GOT THIS ONE!!"

 

Bruce is actually an Adelaide supporter (But he loves Essendon).

Commetti IIRC doesn't follow an AFL club, I think he follows a club in the WAFL.

caro wilson goes for melbourne

Caro's blood is black and yellow.


I would have thought Quartermain was a Saints supporter...

I do love SEN, but I think most of them go for the Saints.

Quarters is definitely a Hawthorn man.

Is he? I was sure from the Saints final he was a Saints man... but fair enough. No wonder he's got a smile on his face these days.

Thanks doggo

caro wilson goes for melbourne

lol...very tongue in cheek !! :lol::blink:

Dennis Commett has been quoted that he does not follow any clubs, but has a soft spot for Melbourne.

As a child in WA he followed Melbourne and his favourite player was Big Bob Johnson...He has mentioned this quite a few times in broadcasts


Tony Jones - Collingwood

Craig Hutchinson - St.Kilda

Mark Robinson - Essendon

I think you'll find that Dennis Cometti is Freo, following on from East Freo. Bruce is Adelaide, and Craig Hutchison is a Geelong supporter.


On 3AW after the Melbourne v WB game this year, Dennis Cometti said those were the two clubs he has bought memberships for. I'm not sure whether he barracks for either though...

Caroline Wilson is a Richmond supporter - her father was president of the club for more than a decade.

Dennis Cometti played reserves for Footscray, so if he has a leaning it is to the Dogs, very big West Perth supporter here in the WAFL.

From ABC Perth Glenn Mitchell is Carlton supporter

Graham Smokey Dawson is Hawthorn

Gerard Whatley Geelong

Dan Longergan Western Bulldogs

The Late Wally Foreman was West Coast, his last AFL broadcast was the 06 Eagles win

Rob Waters ?

Quentin Hull, you'd suspect Brisbane

Peter Donegan ?

There's a few. Cheers

I've read that Cometti has a leaning to melbourne but not sure why that's so. could only think that because he barracked for west perth -- when they had the brilliant name the cardinals, since changed to falcons (yawn) -- he was attracted to our colours. of course, there's a reason for him liking the dogs, having played reserves for them. but he's always admitted a soft spot for robbo & I detected some real angst in the first half against freo -- he was kind of willing us on, although that could have been as much for the sad state of the team in that first half. thank god someone among the commentators has some passion for us!
