I really need to hear a show sometime. I’ve heard snippets but haven’t heard how he handles callers.

I love it how the OP just dropped a turd and ran off.

I love it how someone who has such disdain for a thread seems to like coming back for more of it..

Loves the sound of his voice (which ironically is freaking annoying) way too much. I’ve switched off.

Gerard sounds disturbingly similar to Frank Walker from National Tiles.

He's not one for the common man Whately. I've always seen him as super pretentious and not nearly as smart as he thinks he is. Also, his interest in horses borders on the perverse.

But other than that he's great!

He seems to think he's Kraft'y,  but imo, plain cheddar.

opps... OK,,, I'll see myself out.

You don’t agree?

 

don't listen to the footy stuff on the radio (already being on here is enough and my girlfriend would leave me if i started blaring that [censored] in the car), but i do tune in to afl 360 on occassion and he seems ok. lots more way annoying commentators than him. he's at least intelligent.

According to the OP your girlfriend would be smart and Whately would be a moron.

Have you had enough yet?

He’s one of the best play-by-play callers in the afl

As a counterbalance to Slobbo on 360 he plays that role to perfection 

As a stand-alone radio host he leaves a lot to be desired

Are you sure? I hear he’s a moron.

None of them much these days. I don't watch or listen for insight so much, as news...  and being entertained.  ie: humour.

Back in the day, The Footy Show; but its become the Newmann show, in latter years. >>>   very little footy content, and lots of Ego's stoking themselves.

The time Sam went too far with Schwarta, broke a bond for me, and I have since watched with gritted teeth.  No more, can't stand the show anymore. Schwarta's response, is one of THE Highlights.

 

These days a I like to tune into Marngrook, it still has its organic footy feel and lowbrow fun. I think its sort of grass roots, with some pazazz.

The Front Bar is good, as its fresh, & lighthearted humour.  Genuine laughter.

 

Away from Footy, I've liked,  "ave you bin payin' attenzion"

 

... can't stand the cop shows apart from NCIS. and John Deed . 

I can't stand any cop shop shows, like highway patrols, etc,apart from the KIWI ones,,, who are not full of their own schit.  I do not like to watch battlers getting into strife.  and being belittled.   respect to individuals is king.

 

Sick of the news shows.

 

Project is OK ,accept when  Steve Price or other Andy Bolt wannabe is on. then I turn it off.

 

That's almost it for me. Iv'e seen all the stories over the decades,,, and they're now boring. and pay tv is just as bad. (at a friends place)

Pay tv is bleeding Free2Air dry, by '1000 cuts' to the content.  'They', try to buy all popular shows from F2A, and slowly strangle the old TV.

 

Soon I won't wartch TV, and only watch replays and movies on discs, which I have hundreds.. and Albums of Musica.

 

I Will NOT pay for TV,,,  Ever !

Interestingly we have very similar opinions.  The Front Bar is the only show I watch on TV now, other than live sport.  We have a Netflix account but even that I find we use less and less.  When the kids watch TV it is almost always something niche on YouTube.

Modern tv has lost its soul, just as we have lost our many:  Aretha, Ray Charles, Robbie Flower, Steve Irwin, Peter Brock,  Muhammad Ali etc....   all people of true passion and Driven Via their hearts, for the purposes they love.

Not by money_

 

I believe the plight of the planet will one day unite us all with a passion never witnessed when our own lives and future existence are under real threat.

It is now, but we haven't realised it, just yet.

 

We are too busy trying to beat all others,,, to notice the killer hiding behind our right shoulders.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
