What is your favourite TV/Radio commentary team?

Luke Darcy is the worst. The absolute worst.

and for some reason he is on that morning radio show with Eddie? On what planet do listeners want to listen to an unfunny bogan with an annoying voice? (Darcy I mean, not Ed)

FMD I'd rather attack my nut bag with a garlic crusher and battery acid than listen to Eddie call a game. He is horrific!

I thought Ian Robinson was a great commentator and going right back.........Jack Edwards    They just called the play as it happened....Called the right players.........None of the 'Special Comments' men  explaining what happened 4 plays ago and what they should have done (dermi is the worst at that.)

Actually, to be fair, I should include a square-up. Brian Taylor has an acting role in the move 'Last Cab to Darwin'. It's a minor role where he plays a coach of a footy team in Darwin. What he's required to do he does pretty well. And it's a good movie, too.

Very good movie. Deserved more recognition at the AACTA Awards. Nice little cameo from BT, as limited as it is.

774 has been my favorite, despite occasional interludes from the lady with the awful unlistenable grating voice.  As Jack Dyer could have said:"she could do with some electrocution lessons"  

A favorite Jack Dyer moment was I recall a ¾ time summation: "Stynes dun a pretty good job so far, but  O'Derwiyer hasn't done nuffin much". The co-commentator came back with "Jack, Steve O'Dwyer is out injured today" JD:"Well, that might explain it then"

And a Tommy Lahiff / Harry Bietzel favorite for me was that M v H PF at VFL Park.  Pre match H pointed out "VFL Park is 20 percent bigger than the MCG, so the Demons could run out of legs".   T retorted "Is that in meters, Awwy?"

If Dwyane Russell and David King disappeared from TV and Radio land I'd be a very happy man.

And radio!!!

And from public life in general. 

Unfortunately these days what with digital HD TV and its slight delay, and digital radio or internet radio with bigger delays, it can be difficult to turn the TV volume off and listen to the radio commentary.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
