Was going to ask why Jamie Harnwell wasn't in the poll until seeing when the posts were

See, I get that he is knowledgeable, but that nasal, high pitched voice in conjunction with the ludicrous shit like "a spawning salmon" and his use of some high level post grad vocab that just doesn't fit football is just not what a commentator should be saying imo. That stuff is on par with "RELEASE THE KRAKEN!".

I miss his harperisms. Really never got the hate. Thought it was very immature tbh. Bloke had a very decent vocab.

I used to hate him but as he's calmed down behind the mic, I've learnt to enjoy what he has to say. Definately one of the most knowledgeable fellas in Australian football and has a passion for the games history. I really want to see him write more on earlier post-war footballs history.

The Harper hate is a shame. I really enjoy him as a character.

Interesting to read all the Ross Aloisi hate from years back. He's by far the most insightful people in terms of football analysis and breakdown that fox has had. Yes he doesn't have the personality for TV, but anyone who loves football (particularly the tactical and analysing side) should be interested in what he has to say. Basically, he ought to be a panelist.

Best: Simon Hill
Average: Harper *when paired with Hill), The Kiwi lads. Say what you want about their bias but they actually get passionate/excited during the games.
Shit: Everyone bar Speed and Cockerill
Should be shipped off to Antarctica: Speed and Cockerill.

Seriously :lol: :lol:

And I can't stand Zelic either. That cunt with the likes of Cockerill is like the shittest old boys club in the world where they're both reading jokes from Christmas crackers.

Reevaluate your life decisions. Speed is fucking dreadful.

God tier:
Hill

Good tier:
Speed
Zelic (has a knack of making the most boring games at least somewhat bearable)
Rinaldo
Harnwell

Shit tier:
Harper
Slater
Kiwi commentators
Whoever is partnering Basheer on SBS

Please fuck off tier:
Cockerill
Dodd
Basheer

mel is heaps hot..although she has a bit of vampire teeth going on lol

also can i please vote for andy harper a gazilion more times!!! after hearing him in the syd vs new game i nerly shot mys elf if it wasnt for sydney winning
god he is a mother-fu**ing douchebag

She is really short. I saw her one day at the SFS and yeah very short

Just spend the whole match with a camera on her, even when there is no point to it other than candy ;)

Damn! They should take away the desk and have her sit on a stool or something. We're missing out on a lot.

Least they have Mel McGlaughlin right. They should do a few more sideline crosses when shes doing that duty.

They are on Faux Sports because no one else would let them near a microphone and everyone with an ounce of ability would have cost too much. Expect to see more Ross Aloisis hitting the airwaves as they retire.

They're all bunch of Muppets.
Aloisi the worst of them.
Kimon should have been in there, he would have had a few votes. His soft girls voice would be better used for selling Tupperwear to housewives.

This may sound shallow, but all of thier faces would be more suited for Radio.
Anyone thinking about switching codes would switch over to Fox FC and see Bug eye Cockran, Cromedomes slater, and harper trying to slot in their pick of the day thesaurus words and switch straight back to AFL or Rugby Footyshow they where watching before.

We need to get somone with a personality and don't look like somone that would hand lollies in schoolyards.

Simon Hill and Spencer Prior are passable.

The kiwi commentators are clearly the worst - absolutely no comparison to any of the others listed above.

Hill doesn't seem to like hosting, much prefers commentating.

That would be " Pig shit turned over"

Simon Hill isn't bad. But the bald geezer is terrible. Those guys wouldn't know if the world exploded. In all fairness they are as thick as Pigs hit turned over.

Simon Hill always looks like a dis-interested hobo pulled in off the street and dressed in a suit to look stare sadly at the camera. That said, he's one of the best they've got. Harper, Slater and Aloisi are all fucking TERRIBLE. And I can't really separate them. So I'm not voting.

That was supposed to be MC, my bad.

He looks like a billy bones skeleton draped in leather.

Robbie Slater... even the way he looks pisses me off!

I dont think so. He used to just commentate on NZ games, but the other week he was on a non-nz game for the first time. Branching out

Im thinking Aloisi is just a flash in the pan. He'll be off air soon enough. Hopefully.

I can't truely seperate them, but I'm going to have to go Harper over Alosi because Alosi isn't on as much from what I've seen. Harper strangles every sentence he speaks (he must be really bad because he never gets them right even in pre-recorded parts), Alosi simply parrots what the main commentator is saying and is horrific.

Hehe. Thanks.8-[

Andy Harper is an ear jackhammer. Paul Trimboli can't handl the amount of words he splurts out. I actually think Robbie Slater and Simon Hill are half descent, and I think MK is a quite good commentator. Ross Aloisi has the worst voice in the history of mankind and goes off topic way too much. My vote goes to Andy Harper.

aloisi before he went to sydney
was great
for CCM and in europe
and he's a great striker for aus.
