Dont get me wrong, i hate Walls but i dont think he was that bad against the Lions but he should never commentate Carlton games. He is human and he has been involved in football for most of his life its natural to hate teams.

That's not correct. We all know he loved to give Fev a bake, but he has also got stuck right into Carlton and Rattan.
I think it was last year, or maybe 08 when he wrote an article about Carlton not having their sh*t together. Asked what value Setanta was giving amongst other players.
Conversely, he has been a big wrap for Cloke and Dawes.
He has big man obsession and that crosses over to all teams.
I find Tim Lane infinitely more annoying and sooky than Walls.

It's not about picking out isolated Carlton-related criticisms though.
If you watch a Carlton vs. _____ game on Ten, Walls (and the others, really) spends 80% of the time discussing Carlton, and any criticisms are framed in the context that Carlton should be winning - even when they're up against a clearly better side.
Tim Lane is insufferable in his own right, but as a caller he's not paid to give insight on the game. Walls is. Which makes his bias and idiocy all the more blatant.

I threw my hands up in disbelief last night when watching One Week at a Time when it was suggested by Walls that Harry should have to fork out the 900 large to pay for Johnathon Brown's hairpulling on Saturday. Astounded and outraged. It was Johnathon Brown who took Harry into the fence and was not forthcoming in letting go of the man and O'Brien should have no obligation to back down to him. I'd be disappointed if he did.
The mere suggestion of such action in a court of law would be reprehensible and deemed totally outrageous. How an impartial and unbiased commentator could offer such flippant remarks is totally beyond me.
