Is Dermott Brereton the biggest flog on tv?

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.

Classic Song

 

 

and i am a short person! :)

 

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.

I know Chook.

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.

QFT

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!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
