Dwayne Russell because you just know he'd be a [censored] outside of the job.

    Came because this was the first google result for "Dermott Brereton [censored]", stayed for the brilliant Roos bashing before our 'demolition' of the Power. Oh 2013, we couldn't have known.

    That is gold.

    What a bump.

    And Shane Crawford because I'm not crazy about short people. Randy Newman sang it best 'Short people have got no reason to live' Plus his wacky persona wears a little thin. And he's short.

    Pretty sure that song was a satire on racism, and not to be taken seriously.

    Was said to be written about Irving Azoff, aka "the poison dwarf"... one of the most powerful people in the music biz, manages The Eagles, Steely Dan and many, many more.

    Whether you like or dislike Judd as a player, I've found him interesting to listen to when he's on the panel of footy shows (as opp to TFS). I think he's been on FC and TF. Pretty sharp understanding of the game and where he thinks it's going.

    Could be good for special comments on match day.

    Derwayne surely must win this contest hands down.

    Those who live on the west coast know how painful Basil has been for many years and now those on the east coast are starting to get more exposure to him.  Agree with others though on Crawford, great player but plays the idiot far to much and one of the main reasons I no longer watch TFS

    Robbo wins the title for me. Not because he's significantly worse than the rest, but because his role at the HS should demand someone of much greater quality.

    I can only assume that he is one of those people who 'fails up'.

    Edit: oh and also the Jesse Hogan interview last year. He was CLEARLY inebriated.

    It's a difficult decision. So many footy media people are awful in their own special ways.

    I find the Nosy Vicar and the Domesticated Walrus equally annoying. I am fortunate enough to rarely experience the rest, but most of the time when I do notice them I hope to not notice them again for a while.

    Footy media at the moment is a liability to the game.

    in answer to the op, he has plenty of competition in the tv [censored] commentator category but he's certainly up there with the best (as in worst) flogs

    Yes he is one of them. But there are so many. Where do I start? Dwayne, BT, Sam, Brayshaw, Hutchison, Eddie. But surely Sam is number one! At least Dermie says some informed things about footy sometimes in between preening and polishing himself.

    The guy is very intelligent. It would be beneath him to work with any of the neanderthals commentating football these days.

    Good article by Juddy in the Age today using the Dees as an example of game innovation and attacking footy.

    McClure?  Definitely up there, but don't think he's number one.  (nb. I'm presuming you meant Newman, but thought the bloke I mentioned shouldn't go unnoticed).

    To answer the OP, I think there are far too many in this category to pick just one.  For a start, I don't think there are any journalists that I can stomach listening to & watching (namely Slobbo, his little lap dog Ralph, McClure, Wilson, Fwit Stevens & Purple, I'm sur there are others).

    Of the ex-players, Darcy is up there with the best, along with Der-wayne, Brereton.

    Non ex-players like Basil, Brayshaw, McGuire, the CEOs brother, etc.

    It is far too difficult to pick just one.  Give me Bruce, Dennis, Lingy and Richo for every game.  Bruce gets carried away at times, especially with some individuals, but probably no more than what I do with Tyson and Hogan!

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
