FTA-TV Is Glenn Jakovich the most annoying commentator EVER?

[The_Eagles]

I reckon he's value this year as a boundary commentator.

 

[muzzington]

I don't find him annoying at all, even in derbies. His oafishness is disarming.

 

[magtrev]

The guy is a legend.

Who were Freo playing yesterday? I was only listening to the commentary and I couldn't work it out.

 

[Beerfish]

He's either mumbling into the microphone lately or they're mixing down his audio feed. More often than not the guys up in the box never even respond to anything he says. There's just a couple of seconds silence and they continue the call.

 

[Kram]

Often I think the guys up in the box are just thinking wtf.

 

[Geoff]

Another Jako classic,

Healy - Anything about John Griffin resigning Jako?

Jako - No, nothing yet, Gerard.

Griffin signed a two year extension on the Thursday prior. Keep up with it Jako.

 

[RuFiO]

His interview with Coniglio prematch was awkward............

 

[Borussia Teeth]

His interview with Coniglio prematch was awkward............

Two, er, highlights:

1. Jako trying to tease Coniglio for liking One Direction, then getting it turned back on him, and fumbling for a reply.

2. Jako teasing Coniglio about his hairstyle, where they both looked pretty similar, from side-on anyway.

Yeah comedy isn't Jako's strongpoint is it?

 

[Righteo]

Yeah comedy isn't Jako's strongpoint is it?

Yet he's the master of unintentional comedy.

 

[lincsPJ]

From the weekend's adl vs wc game...

Reilly takes a solid mark on half back..
Healy: this bloke is really pushing for an all Australian selection on this line.
Jako: yep. He and 3 other ruckmen
.. Tumbleweed
Healy: umm I was talking about Reilly.

Well done Jako. You superstar.

 

[Burzum]

Has he been sacked or have I just not being paying attention?

 

[The Speaker]

Has he been sacked or have I just not being paying attention?

Nope, he's gone.

 

[TerryWallet]

Nope, he's gone.

And Sunday arvo's are slightly more boring without the thought provoking musings of the great Jakka.

 

[Kram]

We've go to get him back somehow, the man was pure comedy.

 

[Kram]

I reckon Fox should get him back with a red button option to be able to listen to him commentate the entire game all by himself. It would be so fantastically bad that it would be good.

Jakka upstairs in the box and Drew Banfield riding the boundary line.

Hit Red for the Brain Dead.

 

[Beetlebum]

I miss Jako and his incoherent ramblings, would make a step up from Basil on a Saturday..

 

[Korupt]

This thread is tl;dr but IMO, the answer is no. Basil Zempilas is the most annoying commentator, EVER.

 

[anti_]

Basil is just a nosey (i dont mean his nose, he's always talking about player's girlfriends) annoying **** wit.

Jako is just pure gold. He works at Carlton with mick doesn't he? man...imagine being coached by jako, you'd piss yourself.

Nah Jako is working with the AIS kids again this year, was offered a job at the Blues but didn't want to move from Perth

 

[Beerfish]

Would be a perfect fit for Carlton too.

Shame.

Jako has been doing "special"comments with Darren Gaspar (who I think is pretty good) on SEN radio for some games in Perth
