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!”

  • 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?
