Tony Shaw

[Effes]

Why do Fox Footy keep renewing Tony Shaw's contract?

He is a hack.

His display tonight during Brisbane Carlton was disgraceful.

He was commentating like he was a member of the Brisbane cheer squad.

He doesn't know the rules.

He doesn't STFU when the game is going.

It just reflects the lack of quality commentators going around.

That a hack like Tony Shaw keeps his job. He is pathetic.

 

[Mentallo]

IS IT WHAT!!!!

Rinse repeat.

 

[the_slurpee_man]

His the worst out of the lot! (and thats saying a lot!!)

 

[PP34]

Absolute flog of a commentator. Yes, he is a big Collingwood man, but whether it's on radio or on FoxFooty, he's awfully biased against Carlton. He shouldn't be.

 

[The Casey Cat]

Yep would agree. There are some terrible special comments people out there but Tony is the worst. Embarrassingly bad.

 

[dascman03]

"No doubt."

 

[Deadline]

Agree 100%. I have no problem with any other commentator but he is just embarrassing. If I wanted to here inane uneducated commentary I would go to the game.

Why do Fox Footy keep renewing Tony Shaw's contract?

Probably because he comes cheap.

FWIW, we had the exact same thing in the Brisbane/WCE game. Tony has his Lions pom-poms going all day.

 

[jarrod87]

Spot on, absolute tosser

 

[placebo]

He's just so dumb. Like, dumb dumb. Not playfully dumb, just flat out dumb.

 

[Kram]

He should be in a circus.

 

[Cousin Jed]

Wow what am I reading. Lions cheer-squad? Lions pom poms?

Consistently talking about us does not equal cheer-squad. He spent the entire game bagging out Joel Patfull and the matchup.

Ask any Lions fan and they will tell you he is a moron and can't stand him

 

[Kim Hagdorn]

The bloke is an absolute peanut.

 

[hayes]

"Oh I'd just like to see them throw him into the ruck yknow. Free him up a bit".

Even Robert Walls shakes his head at the amount of times he suggests that.

 

[Davo23]

I heard that when Shaw was a kid, he thought his name was STFU, because that was what his parents said constantly.

Now we also call him that ...

 

[BORK]

One of his worst performances last night IMO. Interesting how this thread started mentioning a "pro lions" stance of his. All I heard during a great game last night was a guy who might still have a little grudge about 2002/3.

 

[Baltimore Jack]

His the worst out of the lot! (and thats saying a lot!!)

Do you mean He's?

 

[Baltimore Jack]

He is a flog commentator in a long line of flog commentators.

Why do TV executives think footballers will make good commentators.
Almost none are

 

[Private Hudson]

Tony Shaw last night during the last quarter " North should run Boomer off half back " less than a minute later " they need to get Wells and Harvey around the ball"

I suspect he is actually mentally ******ed!

 

[Predator35]

Its easy to see why he was a failed coach.

 

[Effes]

He talks rot on a consistent basis.

RUN THE LINES RUN THE LINES RUN THE LINES

 

[hench]

What's the deal with his little "ho-ho" noise that he makes?

 

[rhaz]

Awful awful awful commentator. How he gets a gig is beyond me. Just unbelievably bad.

 

[kfc1]

I don't know who is worse - Shaw or Maclure.

Jesus I love threads bagging that moron.

But I wish he would just #### off from my TV screen....forever.
