Mr "over analysis" Brereton, thinks he knows everything about the game and just shows what a self loving flog that he is

It always seems like he's about to cry when he starts talking, or any sort of argument might start....or is it just me?

What a treat last night was. Not only did my beloved Catters put on a fine Melbourne impersonation, I had to listen to BT crapping on all night. I do not fear Hell as I have already been there.

On the way home last night I listened to the Pre match with Lyon, Dunstall, Brayshaw and Purple- the purple headed warrior- warrior- Barrett. It was like 4 dickheads broke into a radio studio and didn't know they were on air. As highly paid professionals it was beyond atrocious. After 5 minutes I flicked to AM and listened to Taylor ( who is normally just as bad if not worse when calling a game) Lingy and Caro. At least they talked about the game and didn't just dribble non sensical shit doing a tired piss poor comedy routine. Normally Dunstall is good but he was dragged down to the juvenile level. Brayshaw is normally the main culprit. It's not about the game it's all about the James and his ever present effort to put across his boys club comedy.

Give me Drew Morphett any day of the week. These flogs have lost their direction. I am not looking for a comedy routine, I love footy and you can be entertaining and clever but still make the focus about footy ala Dennis Commetti.

It's getting hard to ever listen to the footy on the radio which is sad. As a kid this was what I did every Saturday with the family when we weren't at the games. I tuned in every week and looked forward to learning and listening. Part of the blame must go to the producers but these guys have turned me away.

Probably didn't help last week when I met Brian Taylor and found him to be a rude, arrogant pig. There are certainly more shit commentators than good ones. It's a worrying trend that the traditional pure football commentator is a thing of the past. Funny enough I met Gerrard Wattley very briefly after Port vGeelong and he was polite, good natured and one of only a few who puts the game before himself.

End rant, I feel better now. :D

Well said WW, because today Brereton drove me insane with his constant rabbitting on in the Port game. I had to mute the TV & listen to radio even tho it wasnt in sync, it was way less infuriating!

Yes that is hilarious.
Given the form Dion Prestia is in at the moment, you'd think there'd be plenty of 'human meatball' references but he probably hasn't called any Gold Coast games this year

Have we all overlooked Kelly Underwood ? Surely the most annoying voice in commentary, and thankfully no longer on TV ..

Dale Lewis on Triple M today was painful. Yelled as loud as possible on multiple occasions, not easy to listen to at all.
