I love Dermie most of the time, but as a commentator he gives me the shits most of the time, too much talking and trying to look young.

Didnt like 9's Sunday coverage when 2 hours of football is cut to 40m of football and 60m of adds, an add every 5 mins and they last for 10 minutes.

Eddie McGuire is the best football commentator for me, pure excitement...brian taylor's crew aint bad either. Steven Silvagni as special comments on 10 was like listening to ABC radio, or make that BBC radio.

Needs a change so TV doesnt become complacent...Channel 7 know how to present AFL football, they were doing it when I was a kid.

Robert Walls is a tosser, but if you listen to him and think of him in a comedic way, then he is really enjoyable to listen too. Malcolm Blight is pure and simple a nutjob, he adds comedy value too.
