Hating Manly should be a prerequisit for a commentator.

Daley's OK. Yeah, his hair lookslike Ashey and Martin meets Backyard Blitz, Yeah, his pro Saints bias and his amnesia towards Canberra is due to his penchant for selling his soul for $$$$.

But geez, in a commentating world that contains the likes of Gary Freeman, Paul Vautin, Mike "t-r-y" Stevenson, Gordon "Neanderthal" Tallis, Raaay Hadley, Steve "500 mHZ" Roach, and the man who last year proclaimed that Matt Bowen was the next Clive Churchill during an origin game while QLD were down by 3o, Ray Warren, Daley is pretty darn good.

The kiwi commentators are shockers...they think they are yanks commentating a basketball game - "going downtown" etc...Darryl Halligan is one of the worst I have heard,,,he is always getting player names wrong !!.

Aaah, the bonus of being at the games they call....

Laurie Daley looks like he's just stepped out of the shower and dried his hair with his hands.

Wayne Pearce sounds like a nervous teenager fumbling his words on his first date.

Gary Freeman is a walking, talking idiot who just says anything that sounds "commentaterish".

All the Fox guys are pretty bad, Greg Alexander is the best comments man imo.

Agree with all of these comments...Freeman acts like a little boy on NRL on fox and Daley sits there stating the obvious and taking the p#ss out of Freeman or Pearce..riveting viewing :fist:

Wayne Pearce has the most annoying voice of all time.
It is like he goes through puberty 5 times whe he talks with how his voice changes....that and he cannot sting 10 words together.

I would rather listen to Wayne Pearce and Mark Geyer explain the laws of quantum physics than listen to the Brisbane call team when they play the games up here.

I remember one game they had Mick Hancock on the sideline and he had to resort to reading his comments off the piece of paper they gave him on camera because he was so pathetic.

I had the pleasure of meeting Lozza when he was up in Townsville calling the cows game. I am organising a fundraiser via work and all funds go to the Childrens ward. he was more than happy to sign a pair of black, lime green & blue Nike boots, stay and chat for 30 min. The hair was a bit squeewif no doubting that, but a real nice bloke down to earth. In short bloody champion !!
