I personally think he is a tosser and give him zero credibility, but just wondering what other peoples views/opinions are?

His lowest point must surely have been hiding behind a bin waiting for Sheedy to come out of a meeting with Melbourne execs. Complete tool.
 
I used to like him prior to him taking the 9 job at becoming completely and utterly overexposed. I think at that point he started to believe his own hype.

He's a good journo, but I like modesty and humility in a person

Cannot stand listening to him. Seems to feel like he needs to take a strong stand on issues where he's wrong/in the minority by a mile. Has no charm or presence at all.

Last night on FC he came out with "time for extra time so there's no draws in AFL games", and was promptly shot down by Gary, Arch and Caro. And the crap he pulled with Libba was unreal.
 
The issue I have is that he is a quality journalist when he wants to be; he just gets caught up in the sensationalist crap.
 
On Footy Classified he can come across as an arrogant prick, yet on the Footy Show seems alright.
 
Tabloid journalist, sensationalist tool.....yep seems like we have summed it well so far.

Journalistic integrity is very important IMHO and this bloke has none of it. Snipes for stories, twists the way people express things, harps on the most minute comments and turns them into back page news. Im sure you would know someone like this as well hey BigHawk?

Cant stand him on either show. Doesnt help that Jim and Garry talk him up all the time.

What is annoying though is that this bloke just seem to get all the stories so he is probably not going away anytime soon.

so he isn't allowed to have a different opinion on extra time?:rolleyes:

I have no problem with him and i stated in another thread i know a couple of people who have had dealings with him and they said he was a really nice bloke.

He is a very popular figure on here to bag and people jump on that bandwagon like flies on a a piece of crap.
 
Not to fussed on his work on the footy show or footy classified.
As for a human, nothing but a smart mouthed coward. Played indoor footy at west gate, was so full of himself, until he copped a ripper of a head butt from a lebo one night.... that shut his trap!
 
He's there to make headlines certainly annoys me when he craps on about Melbourne so he's probably doing his job.

The worst thing is, is his response to when he gets asked as to why he does what he does "it's in the public interest"
 
he is a doosh bag. have u seen how close he sits next to people. next time u see him on tv take a look. its freaky as!!!
 
Does anyone else cringe when he interviews players outside their house or getting into their car? Seems like the kind of journalist who would go through the rubbish bins at a club just to get a story.

I really don't like the guy. He seems alright on the footy show but when he's on footy classified he acts like a squirmy, disagreeable tosser.
 
Plays Club 18 footy (basically social standard) in the VAFA.

Offered himself up to be forward coach. What sort of a tool thinks that F Grade ammos' need specialist forward coaches?

Tool of the highest order.

For a supposed journalist, I also find him to be quite inarticulate at times. Sometimes Glenn Archer is more of a wordsmith than Hutchison, and that says a lot.
 
I think he is the same as most footy journalists-full of their own self importance. Sometimes gets some good stories but sometimes he's just creepy ( he seemed to stalk Ben Cousins last year ) and other times he just creates a story out of nothing - the Libba Tanking story was created out of his own questioning to give the Footy Show "we have to do something about tanking" fanatics something to talk about that night.
