Can't stand Dixon. Acts like he's the equal of the men sitting alongside him.

I was thinking the exact thing on Friday night.
He's sitting there, with blokes with about 12 premiership medals, loads of B&Fs, club games holders and other decorations and he was a member of, probably, some of the worst Hawthorn teams in half a century. That shouldn't preclude him from commentating, but he should be less smug.

He's the football Brendan Julian...but Julian is more humble.

He did play 200 games, though, which gives him some credibility.

With the EJ Whitten Legends game moving to Ch 7 at least we won't have to put up with The Footy Show goons in the commentary box anymore.

Channel 9 have spent 22 years trying to work out who has the biggest ego/cock and they haven't even got close to working it out. Morons of the highest order.

BT, Richo, Darcy and Lingy carrying on like peanuts instead of Lyon, Brayshaw, Brownless and Newman.

This is true, but the C9 group are football club changeroom mentality, the C7 blokes are more football club around the bar. Lesser of two mindless evils in my book.

This morning I saw this headline in 'The Age' and was shocked: Sophie Mirabella quits politics and says she'll be a commentator.

Never saw her play. I presume she was tough little back-pocket like Bubbles Obst. Hopefully she gives Channel 7 a call, would give Brian Taylor a run for his money. Still wouldn't bridge the gender gap, though.

JB is a knob because he goes over the top now with his "What ever I says goes" personality on TV. He's gone from being a straight shooter to having the last say on anything and everything and raises his voice and talks over people when he doesn't like their opinion. He still does bring up some very good points at times in my opinion, he bought up what I personally thought was a good point about the Hawks a couple weeks ago.

Now...... I was glad to see a bloke back on TV last night and I actually don't mind him as a commentator because even though he's an arrogant **** he at least is consistent and doesn't go over the top to get his point across and isn't emotional. Robert Walls!

Cornsey all the way. I love how he used to say 'What's Norwood done since the War' and I always used to think 'beaten you in 3 Grand Finals'

I hate Mark Stevens, he shits me too. When he's asking a coach a question in the Friday night post match presser you can tell they want to get up out of their chair and go punch him in his weasel face.
