What's up with Kelli Underwood?

[hawkman]

BT has just called Freo “Port” twice in 5 minutes in the Freo v Carlton game but only Underwood gets memes & reaction videos made about her

Yeah BT never gets mocked for his commentary.....

 

[The King!]

She can't even get the year right

You're shitting me right? People complain about commentators all the ****ing time
Kelly's a shit commentator, if you wanna make it about her gender go nuts. She's still shit.

Tom (not sure who, maybe Jonas?) commented how Liam Ryan was patrolling the Fremantle back line

This is the Kelli Underwood thread dude.

 

[janty]

Her cholesterol?

I'm not sure, sorry. I've never met her.

 

[Tandy]

I think her time at fox is just about up

 

[burge13]

I think her time at fox is just about up

Her, Dwayne, and Derm need to be released ASAP

 

[Del208273]

Problem is next year when Fox can call every game.

Since every main commentator on Fox already calls games on radio, it means there'll most likely be a shortage of, ahem, 'talent'.

Unfortunately, I can't see Ms Underwood leaving.

BT is a walking meme. Probably the only one that gets hammered online more than Kelli.

Derrrrrwayne Russell says

 

[burge13]

She says yesterday

"Great mark by.." awkward silence as she clearly doesnt know who it is

Other commentators jump in "Moore".

How she remains employed is beyond me but they keep Dwayne around too so it must just be a troll from fox footy execs

Would probably be easier the praise him when he gets one right

As soon as I heard her voice I turned it off, I think it's got to that point that unless it's a blockbuster, I would rather miss it than listen to her grating voice.

Agreed. Same with Derwayne but they often have Crows games

Mute it and listen to music or something. Sadly fox will never listen to fans regarding these 2, we're stuck with them forever

Honestly these days I often watch games with the sound muted, commentary as a whole is just at such a low standard.

As for Kel herself, she does a lot of things well but commentary for TV in big games isn't one of them.

Yep, if you have an idea as to how the game is played, you really don't need commentators stating the bleeding obvious to you. I often deploy the mute button while I enjoy some great music. Best way to watch footy.

 

[DirtySandman]

Well, I reckon she is great, an excellent broadcaster, she should do all the big vicco games.

Please, can she do big vicco games?

Hi Kell, or Kells husband

Hi Kell, or Kells husband

Or WCE supporter…..

I actually don't know how any of the commentators learn players so well they can recall them immediately in live play. I mean you can study the two teams playing that day but some of these commentators are calling two or even three games each weekend across TV and radio. That's 6 teams you need to have memorised well enough to instantly recall 95% of players. I can't do it with my own team let alone 6 teams I don't support

 

[RAPPA]

I’d still opt for her over BT

 

[1989]

OK. Enough is enough. She has no bloody idea.

 

[janty]

Her, Dwayne, and Derm need to be released ASAP

How dare you mention the Great One.

 

[Hawks_4478]

She butchers every game she calls. How can she have no self awareness of how bad she is?!

 

[HawthornHawk]

Watching the Richmond game yesterday she seemed to think getting tackled after taking the ball out of the ruck was still an automatic HTB. Wasn't this rule changed years ago?
