Yep it's Dwayne Russell for me with the silver to Wallsy and I have to give the boundary rider Rohan Smith a mention , seems like a decent bloke but not particular solid with the use of words.
 
Pretty sure this has been around before.

Only Commetti and the ABC crew (Whateley, Morphett, Glen Michell and Hull) are easily standouts.. ABC crew because they are actual footy enthuisests, not B-Grade AFL Celebraties... I dont mind Hudson on Ten.

Cristian, Quartermain, Lane, Bruce arent brilliant... but they are not the worst....

Walls is the worst... havent seen Foxtel though

Not a commentator but Olarenshaw is the worst person on AFL TV ...FULL STOP
 
The Ch10 team is a snoozefest, although Huddo conveys some enthusiasm.

On a positive note, the Geelong-Carlton game Ch7 team of Russell, Healy and Dunstall were pretty good I thought. Not too many cliches, and some good insights from the special comments men.

Captain Obvious (Robert Walls) has yet to master the art of saying anything remotely incisive or interjecting with a comment not consisting of a decontextualised statistic passed to him by the producer.
 
I know he is not around anymore (Not Hard to work out why)........

It kills me too say this but Drew Banfield was by far the worst i have ever heard/seen. He was ok when the camera was not on him, but as soon as it was, he was like a rabbit in the spotlights and couldnt form a legitimate sentence.

Of the current day lot.............

Worst - Main: Dwayne Russel Special: Robert Walls (Purely for his inability to think up anything on his own, and he has an opinion he will only add something when hes sees something to stregthen his case)

Best - Main: Dennis (if he gets the mix between humour and calling right) Special: Bucks & Lethal by a country mile. But watch for James Hird this year.
 
Best game in the world, sadly the commentating does not match the product. Quality broadcasters are as rare as hen`s teeth. Nathan Buckley, Lethal, Wayne Carey (when he was on) are about the only decent ones on t.v. Foxtel has got it right where you can press the red button and just have the crowd noise and no inane ramblings of their commentary team.
If I had to name the worst ? d.brereton.

Surprised he didn't pop up more often. Condescending and absolutely full of it (and himself).
 
the ox.

he is clearly the worst. he is so so soooo biast, and says the most obvious things. and he hates the eagles... i never hear a good thing about the eagles come out of his mouth. a good commentator is an unbiast commentator
 
OX- Terrible, would lose an argument to an apple.

Dennis- O.K, but tries too hard to be funny which pisses me and Bucks off.

Walls- Try to ignore his obvious statements and stats, also looks at the players' dicks too much.

Bucks- Good

Quarters- Don't mind him really.
 
Shane Healy, 3AW. Absoulute f**k-stick!!!

He's an opiniated knob, who employed himself after the re-shuffle midway thru 2007 when 3AW were on the slip n' slide. He was a manager of Southern Cross, so he sacked Hutchy and another few blokes, then slipped himself into a commentary role! LoL
 
Walls...daylight...Broooooce.

Walls is the most negative, boring cun* I have ever heard call a game. He hates the Swans, yet we have to endure his boring prattle far too often. He seems to delight in putting teams and players down. And you can't tell me that goatee isn't the bi-product of a dull, mid-life crisis of some description.

Broooce is lost in his watery-eyed devotion to Commetti (the best commentator in the game, and most entertaining). Brooce longs to be Dennis, and it's awful having to listen to it game after game.

Buckley's good. Huddo's ok too...
