I sense Buckley will give Robbo a jab to the jaw before the year is over

Some blokes make you question your opinions if they say something you agree with. David King is high on that list for me.

I reckon he relies on stats too much (if that makes sense??). Footy is a stats game don't get me wrong, but it's almost like he doesn't have a feel for the contest. His predictions are wrong a lot of the time and he has many.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Well, he was never in a contest in his playing days, so you could be onto something there.

Kingy is a wanker of the highest kind but he could play and he won many a contest running off half back.

Hudson and King as 'A-graders'...WTF.


I personally enjoy listening to Gerard Whateley on the radio and on 360.

Nice article, I agree with most, but McGuire & King were marked too generously.

How good was Dermie last night on AFL Teams.

They dedicate a few minutes to the women's state clash between SA & ACT/NSW where it seems as though Lynch had some nous of womens footy yet Dermie chose to steal the lime light and talk his uneducated poop. All good, play on, then to wrap up the short segment after he picked the allies he then says "Well I hope you know something about it, because I certainly don't".

If they are not going to do some homework on the subject, don't make a segment for it, he just made it look like that it got a mention because they had to.

Arse clown, himself Kingy and McLure should have a "dickhead off".

I don't like Robbo but 360 needs him, he works really well with Whatelely, I don't have to like the bloke to respect his craft.

Absolutely, Robbo will get punched out one night on there though.

Figure I'm in the minority these days, but I like Robbo .. Cracked me up on 360 the other night when they had a Sportsbet Promo that always ends with "And of course gamble responsibly", and Robbo laughed and said (not verbatim) "Yeah right, spend as much as you can with us".

Reckon he calls it as he see's it, and see's it pretty well. Works perfectly next to GW who is the best in the business for mine.

Every now and then in the car I'll station surf to listen to games and get a bit of Tim Lane .. Not sure if it's because it reminds me of the Winners, but I like his calling.
