Geez, Petracca broke a rib at training today.

Not having a good run of it.

Looked very heavy too.

I wonder how motivated he is.

Well we know he really wanted to leave Melbourne...

Will Goodwin leaving make a difference?

Have I missed something?

 

[Cromulant]

Have I missed something?

Not yet

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Have I missed something?

Reckon Goodwin will only last another season.

Dees are cooked imo.

I haven’t consumed any news for a couple of months thought I may have missed something.

Dunstall should be in his own category as he’s a tier above.

Hodge is knowledgeable but not that good communicating that to the audience imo.

I hate listening to King, the knob

 

[FR0GGY]

Bottom tier: Burgoyne, Watson, selwood

Used to not like King as well, but have warmed to him since watching him on First Crack, good analysis when he doesn’t go Cornes-lite

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Luke Darcy is bottom of the pile for me. A migraine to listen to with his constant shouting and loving the way everyone goes about it.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Bruce and Dennis for me . Whately best of the current bunch imo but can be a bit annoying.
As for who is the best commentator to paint a mental picture of whats happening in a footy game
a blind mate prefers Whately.

Poll certainly doesn’t think the persecuted Kelli Underwwod to be a Fine Commentator.

Dwayne polling well there.

It's funny, he's one of the most hated commentators on BF yet he's well-regared outside of the forum. Make of that you will.

I dont like the timing of Goodwin leaving Melbourne and Nicks in a pressure cooker year in 2025.

It’s the port bias thing here.

The Dwayne hate isn't just restricted to Crows fans though.

I don't think he's the worst, but I'm not a fan because he reminds me of a Woody doll, just pull the string and he'll come up with one of his cliches.

"If you've just joined us"
"On the buzzer!"
"Rolls it, goals it"
"That's crazy good!"
"There's a snake in my boot!"

Roo departing gives me a little bit more hope. Just a little.

Would be an about-face if they did that. The club has spent a lot of time trying to rebuild club harmony. Hiring Goodwin would be a deeply cynical move. Essentially Adelaide saying "we don't care about all these red flags, Goodwin is a premiership winning coach".

Hopefully Roo is on the way out... as they are still very close.

I don't mind Dwayne in smaller doses, but his calling is predictable.

Not the best, but nowhere near the worst either imo.

Jobe Watson is the worst commentator I've ever heard in any sport. Can barely string a coherent sentence together let alone give any meaningful insights into football. The absolute dictionary definition of a nepotism hire

Agreed.

Been terrible since day 1 & has not got any better.

Boring to listen to & tells us the bleeding obvious.

Don't think i have learnt anything from him over the years.

Disgraced former player Jobe Watson. It's nepo hiring taken to the extreme. "He's a drug cheat and we took his brownlow away, you should hear his opinions though".

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

"He's ambidextrous on both sides".

 

[FullyBigKPro]

Have it on VERY good authority both Petracca and Oliver are still very disillusioned at Melbourne. VERY.

If they have another poor year and especially if Goodwin cracks, expect at least one (if not both) gone end of 2025.
