It’s time that we had a dedicated thread where we can discuss the people in the football media.

First cab off the rank is this man who already has his eyes on the supporters’ Media Fool of the Year.

Ch7 commentator Brian Taylor goes too far, is complete laughing stock

 

 

The article makes a very good point. I watched the game last night and listening to Taylor, I really thought that   Collingwood won the game.

 

Must've heard the name "Daicos" about 1000 times last night. Sycophantic commentary.

Don't mind Bt.

He's the inner buffoon we all have and suppress for the most part.

He can't.


I laughed when he was pumping the filth up when they were 39 points down in the 3rd.

I prefer BT not commentating collingwood or richmond games cos he loves them and Melbourne games cos he hates us.
He's also more fun when he call's on the radio when he can be a bit more of a larrikin 

Next season Foxtel will be able to use their own commentators when screening Ch.7 matches.

Can't wait!  BT is horrendous. 

That said, loved listening to James Bradshaw's GF commentary (and Daisy) 😁

BT was somewhat tolerable in the GF I thought l. At least his token lines were bearable.

I think you’ve let the winning glow of the GF win impact your thoughts!

BT is about the only commentator that I mute the tv for. He and Dermie. Both are incredibly painful to the ears

Those 2 for definite. I'd add a 3rd, Jobe Watson. Finding it increasing difficult to ignore his inane comments.

Ah football media. Where it doesn't matter if you glass a woman in the face (carey) or are a convicted drug cheat, there's a spot for your terrible analysis

It bothers me how she really tries to force these clever little quips or play on words all the time. They’re terrible and it massively detracts from the game. Instead of trying to be comedians, can they just try to add insight beyond what we see on the screen? 

Going by Jobe Watsons comments he probably should of stayed in New York running his bar with that hot wife of his.

I wonder what Timmy thinks.

Say what you like about BT but he came up the phrase "Fritsch-magnet" c. Round 18 2021 (or was it 2022?🤔).  

An early entrant for the prestigious Golden Dermie, is Chris Johnson specially commenting on the match against the Swans.  Throughout the second half, he waxed lyrical about the masterstroke of replacing a fit BBrown with Melksham.  The Boundary Rider must have been asleep.  Furthermore, he said that Melksham was a player that would "fight and scrap for you).  Not the strengths of the Melksham that I see (also noted in last week's podcast).

Don’t you like when Jobe says things like,” if you kick the highest score you often win” and “the side that wins possession, often has the ball”.

At least he isn't wrong there...

You mean like “Stu comes through with a view he may rue….phew!”

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
