    Legit the most pathetic bit of footy media on any channel at the moment. Which is saying a lot. 

    Roaming Brian should be renamed [censored] Brian because he has no idea how to conduct interviews or what to ask players. He cut off Glen Bartlet last night who actually was saying some interesting stuff about membership targets, so he can talk to Josh Mahoneys kid. I mean seriously!

    Yeah its terrible.  Its cool to see in the rooms and hear from all the players and coaches after the win though, but BT is the worst.

    I know I'm in the minority, but I quite enjoy his few minutes of nonsense in the rooms!

    Brilliant - I like the roaming BT segment. Gives some good insights into what the players do after the game and some good light hearted Q&A.  It also has a nervous air that Roaming BT will say or do something highly inappropriate which adds to the experience. 

    On a side note, Bruce Mcevaney annoys me to no end. He offers no insight or understanding of the game and simply fawns over players based on their reputation and not on how they are playing or what is actually happening.

    He just walked past me in an Elsternwick car park. Has lost a fair bit of weight.

    If having to put up with Brian as part of winning I am absolutely happy to include this each week.

    Really makes him think he is important but behind the responses there is s good deal of banter some sort of unbelievable mirth and also true footy cliches. Oh and just a hint of information for us fans!

    As long as he's not forcing bathwater down their throats I say lighten up and enjoy it.

    To be honest I prefer Roaming Brian, where he is intentionally being a tool for a bit of light hearted entertainment, to Commentary Brian, where his toolery interferes with the actual call.

    I agree completely.

    I watched a replay of the final against Geelong a couple of weeks back and he was calling Angus Agnes.

     Segment should be renamed "tool in the sheds"

    When I have to watch 7 I either watch it with no sound or have a radio station for sound. There is a lot to be said for no sound. It is like watching a game live, you don't get commentary at the ground why do we need it at home?

    Not sure why there’s so much vindictiveness here towards roaming Brian, I found it entertaining and informative

    Yeah.....not so good sometimes, but I enjoy seeing some players trying to hide from him. What a laugh! They are probably embarrassed as well. By the way, glad to see Marty Hore's parents were able to find the rooms! Don't worry Marty, if they can't find the rooms at the MCG, us girls will look after you!

    I like the sound of the game. Just feels weird watching it in silence. If you could have the sound of the crowd, and the footy hitting the boots, and bodies hitting each other, and the players calling out to each other, without these imbeciles yabbering over the top of it, that would be perfect for me.

    Watching the TV with the radio on doesn’t work for me. They’re always out of sync and it drives me spare.

    Yes your last point is a good one. But seriously do prefer Bruce and Brian to the sweet sound of silence? I wonder if anyone has done a trial of a telecast sports game without commentary but sounds of the crowd etc?

    Yes!

    I simply say "Gush"... Def: to speak effusively or with exaggerated enthusiasm

    Makes me sick!

    Ditto for me.  Best solution is to turn the volume down low so you can easily ignore the actual words the commentators say.  Just use them as augmenting the crowd noise (which they already fake at matches were there are few supporters of one side).

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
