The only commentary team I can stand, really, is Tim Lane and Tony Leonard on 3AW (ignoring the special commentators, of whom there aren't many that are any good...Carey? Ling? Richo's awful, Lloyd's horrendously biased, Matthews is past it, Darcy's cliched, Chris Johnson has no idea what he's on about...the list goes on).

Hope when Hird gets sacked we don't have to cop him in the media.

"He really needs to kick this goal...."

"He really needed to kick that goal...."

"They need the next goal...."

"That is a bad time to turn it over...."

Some of Richo's most insightful comments.

Huddo brings the excitement. Bruce is cringeworthy and dated.

Yes , Bruce is certainly cringeworthy don't you think ?....AND dated isn't he ??? .

I think he's delicious.

No one team is best, the best combination would be Whateley, Hudson, Lucas and Dunstall.

Watching Lloyd now on Classified proves my arguement that he is ridiculously bias towards his mate at Essendon. He is the only deluded one who think he will still coach till the end of the year. The fact he is still backing hird is mind boggling.

I didn't see the program, but I don't think having an opinion that Hird will coach to the end of the year is, in itself, necessarily biased. I'm not an Essendon or Hird supporter and I think Hird will see the year out. Do I think he should? That's a different question.

Dermie likes to consider himself a bit of a mind reader...

"Right now he's thinking..."

"He'd be thinking to himself..."

"What he would be saying to himself right now is..."

"He really needs to kick this goal...."

"He really needed to kick that goal...."

"They need the next goal...."

"That is a bad time to turn it over...."

I really don't rate the boundary rider position at all.

However given the seemingly mandated 'entertainment' factor in current commentary, he'd unwittingly save my team from being too dry.

Can we add Ian Healy to the list of shithouse commentators?

He does not know when to shut up!

FMD. Healy is still babbling. He worked alongside Ritchie Benaud long enough but apparently learnt nothing . FMD! Great cricketer but dumb [censored]!

Ian's brother, Gerard, pizzes me off!

it's been down hill since Harry Bietzel and Tommy Lahiff departed.

" You there Harry? "

How about the classic Tommy Lahiff line during a cross to the Collingwood rooms. " I'm in the Collingwood rooms Harry, Daicos' has got a groin" A great relief for all the listeners.

Thanks Rough End,

but Joh Bjelke Peterson is out of office and lead paint is also considered dangerous.

Anyone bar ,Healy, King and Russell.

Doug Heywood: "...and Fitzsimmons to Flower is good football."

Love it when Sellers unloads on ABC.

What if we combined BT with Dwayne?

Dwayne doesn't commentate enough, but BT commentates too much (hear him trying to commentate the rain on Thursday?)

Possible dream team?

A dream team of BT and Dwayne?!? One man's dreams are another man's nightmares.

Eddie drove me mad with his barracking for Essendon on Saturday. Especially with the touched call, kept saying it was over, even after all the other commentators said the call was right.

I just can't stand the business names thrown in every 5 seconds on Triple M. Every bloody thing has its own name... the scoreboard, the replay, the injury report....

That's a good Hard Yakka Stat there LFR.

Was reading a forum a while ago about who was the best radio/Tv radio in the business so thought id ask around here to get who everyone liked to listen to.

I can't stand channel 7 anymore. The Saturday night team are a joke, the way they just ramble on about other stuff instead of just commentating on the game. They are so ridiculous bias on certain teams its beyond the joke. I like listening to Dennis still at least he calls the game without any bias towards it and pretending he is a coach. Nick Maxwell special comments on Collingwood is worse then Eddie..!

Some might find this surprising but I don't mind listening to Wayne Carey. He calls it how he sees it and doesn't hold back on anything. I have also noticed he has a soft spot for us and even gave Matthew Lloyd a fair old wack about the comments on Roos coaching. He knows the game well inside out still.

Gotta admit I love listening to the Triple M Saturday rub team before the footy. Its a good laugh with Garry, JB, Spud and the Chief. Spud absolutely gives it to Purple headed warrior every chance he gets. Some of the youtube clips are a good laugh.

Don't mind them too when they call the game, at least they make the game exciting! I also don't mind listening to Garry and Chief as special comments as well. Calls it as they see it just like Carey and won't hold back. Up there as my top number 1 for me.

BT is much better suited to Triple M then the channel 7 team I reckon. Doesn't take himself serious as most of them do on 7 and fits in well with all the others on Triple M

Fox footy can be good at times it just depends who is calling the game. Personally think Anthony Hudson is the best in the business. Especially when the game is exciting and on the edge! I thought he was superb on channel 10 and some of the best games in the mid 2000s featured him a lot.

Dwayne.. Don't get me started..

Sandy Roberts, Unfortunately I think he is out of touch with todays game. He gets so many names wrong its so cringe worthy to listen to and im surprised he doesn't get pulled up a lot. Still like him just needs to sharpen up a bit.

Jonathon Brown. Still 50/50..

Who do you all prefer?

currently V V V V V V V V V V V V V

can't stand the modern afl calls, all stats, & ramblin ego tripping

sickening turn-OFF

fail, boring 'try too hard' snooze fest

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

go along wayz back; to be entertained by the not-over-powering commentators; & be entertained by the game itself, without adulterated bozo's trying to be stars of screen.

I like the easy going times of yesteryear, where commentator anchor wasn't an Ex-player, but was a devotee, & NOT full of stats, & shyte.

and there was time to breathe in, between commentators commentary

............. Memo to todays commentators: STFU, & let the game play, speaking only now & again.

FMD. Healy is still babbling. He worked alongside Ritchie Benaud long enough but apparently learnt nothing . FMD! Great cricketer but dumb [censored]!

He is still going. FMD!! Is there no end to this FW?

Warnie's social banter is appalling as well. Sending out happy birthdays, living off acquaintances. Next he'll be saying hello to his Tinder brigade.

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)
