Daisy Pearce is horrid.

[Schnitzengruben]

Dreadful. Need a mute option.

Just speaks to hear the sound of her voice, nothing insightful.

 

[Dan Moody]

This.
And every time she points out the obvious, is lauded as having "wonderful insight".

 

[The King!]

She is not there due to any sort of skill , insight or talent as a caller

Special comments in my opinion are better less frequently and when they don't point the bleeding obvious out.

special comments is a terrible term for such persons. Infers they are "special", and not in a historically positive way.

 

[windyhill]

I believe in equal rights, she is as equally bad as the blokes.

 

[MisterB]

Just wish Daisy would learn the meaning of "concise" and apply it to her special comments. Less is more, Daisy.

[10Dulkar]

A very good point is alluded to above. A large part of it is the fact that the producer instructs them to fill any dead air time with something regardless of whether it adds to the broadcast or not.

 

[1989]

States the bleeding obvious.

Waffles on with no direction.

Awkward pauses everywhere.

Doesn't finish off sentences because she doesn't know what to say.

Perhaps roaming Brainless can teach her

 

[Xtreme]

Perhaps roaming Brainless can teach her

Just what we need another OH BOY WOWWEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

or questioning if the player has hurt their foot, when they've actually hurt their hip

 

[BF Tiger]

States the bleeding obvious.

Waffles on with no direction.

Awkward pauses everywhere.

As long as she’s doing it in the Geelong coaches box I have no problem with it.

This.
It's like none of the other commentators want to validate what she's just said so they let it go through to the keeper

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

I don't need commentators telling me what's happening, I can see that for myself, so I don't care what they're saying.

 

[Del208273]

She's got into the bad habit of saying too many words to explain her point and before she has the chance to finish, she'll say something like, "I'll come back in a moment."

Perfect example of word economy where the majority of commentators whose role is 'Special Comments fail miserably.

 

[killtaker1993]

I find her sexy

 

[craffles]

you don’t get a plumber to do your accounting so why do we keep getting footballers to do commentary?

It’s not specific to Pearce, it’s all the ex footballers. Get some ****ing professionals

 

[The King!]

she makes Jobe sound good

 

[Gizmo]

I find her sexy

 

[Chadwiko]

Was a gun footballer in her prime, but is absolutely rubbish on the broadcast.

Offers nothing, and doesn't have 'the voice'.

 

[Pbft]

Looks like an escapee from Roswell

 

[Cleavy]

She speaks like she’s on the red cordial.

 

[1989]

She speaks like she’s on the red cordial.

So wrong we have her and Jobe Watson commentating an AFL Prelim.
