Roast Media Shakes Head, Part 7

[Forzaport]

Big Andy D is right

Andrew Demetriou says this year's AFL premiership will won't necessarily be won by the best football team, but the club that adapts best to the ever shifting sands.

Arguably Port is doing this the best at the moment

Ergo

The best football team doesn’t necessarily win the premiership normally. Does anyone legitimately think Bulldogs in 2016 were the best team? Hawthorn 2008? Crows 1998? The list goes on.

Every year clubs have to content with fixtures, weather, injury lists, game plans, finals opponents, form, suspensions, home ground advantage, etc

You have to be the best team in September, always has been and apart from this year where it will be in October or November, always will be.

Or play against NSW teams in the finals with umpires that want your team to win.

or Port in 2001-2003

Times are tough when not even being a crowie can save you at Channel Crow. Look out Elspeth!

But to be fair she is a far more modest crow supporter than her colleagues which is probably what cost her.

Not prepared to search the bins to dig up dirt for Smithson.

Far more worrying is the fact yet another Adelaide TV segment will get phoned in from another state.

This is true. Maybe she wasn't crow enough?

I quite like Adamson as a presenter but there's no way they will remove the annoying Jane Doyle (another crow fan) from her post while she's still breathing.

If they were really serious about saving money, they'd dump Amelia too. Who needs a weather presenter anymore? Surely the newsreader can read a weather forecast.

 

[JimmyBC]

Cut that Tim Noonan geezer!

Edit: he has been

 

[TheFVK]

Can't wait for Elspeth to get fired.

Looking forward to hanging around the front of her house to interview her on how she feels about it

I don’t know how that guy got his odd head on TV to begin with. He has the weirdest rhythm when he speaks, it’s not pleasant to listen to at all.

That's when finbarr makes his move.

I actually didnt mind him... only because he is bizarre which is different than your normal clean cut run of the mill presenter

 

[Papa G]

They are replacing her with Mangiarelli who's a Port supporter.

ABC Adelaide has been doing it for years.

I just found him really awkward to listen to. I agree not everyone has to be cookie cutter and I shouldn’t have a shot at his looks but for me he wasn’t “good different” if you get what I mean.

Yep.

If you are capable of reading the news off an autocue, you are also capable of reading the weather report off an autocue I would have thought.

Heck if it weren't for a few mild impediments including a thick lisp, more gaps than teeth, a blockhead and a face only a mother could love I reckon I could do it.

Yea he was playing the 'I'm a bit quirky' card to try-hard levels with a dash of a Kiddie Fiddler vibe.

You forgot to mention your biggest impediment - you're a male. I can only remember three male presenters - Barry Pitman, Keith Martyn and Tim Noonan. Of course, none of them were in the same league as Channel 10's Peta Peters or the mute blonde in the bikini ;-)

Brenton Ragless started with the weather before moving to the desk.

 

[DaTBird187]

They are replacing her with Mangiarelli who's going to leave her husband for DaTBird187.

Here's hoping.

Plus his eyes are way to small.

Yep! Forgot about him!

At least in the old days the weather presenters had to actually write the temperatures on the map... and backwards!
