1. No but yes in a nice way, he says the most stupid shit cause he's geniused but you can't hate him for it
2. When you have been in the job once before it isn't that hard to stay in it longer even if he is "geniused:

As mentioned before, fox ruled supreme but now is ordinary.

Aside from blocker, am I the only one who thinks finch, hodges, gasnier Parker and co are just hopeless.

TV shows are shit too. The professor is pure shit. Amazing how far backwards fox went on the off season. Kinda like the bulldogs

To paraphrase Bryan Cranston, I'd rather act as a gay prostitute in Deuce Bigalow : Pakistani Gigolo then listen to Blocker Roach commentate on a footy game.

He's one of the great characters in the history of the game

The Fox promo told me so

Is that Justin Hodges who has a speaking gig? He's as stupid as a plank and can barely speak English, and I'm a Brisbane fan.

my favourite blocker quip so far was in the panthers/roosters game. 50 second to go, panthers last tackle attacking the roosters line down by 2, blocker says 'the panthers will look to get a repeat set here'

It was fun listening to the amount of times Warren Smith had to correct him during the call. Would have been 4+ times.

Can't remember precisely what play it was....

Roach: That's a strip! Why isn't that a strip?

Smith: You have to have SOME control of the football

You could almost hear Smith's eyes roll.

The tackle in the air was the funniest one.
Before he said anything I was thinking 'surely he knows this one'
But he didn't.

Old Humpty Dumpty..

My favorite , with 90 seconds to go, down by 14. - This is really their last chance here to have any chance of winning this game...

f**k of mate.
I remember hearing that in the commentary as well. Im a tigers fan but the merkin really grinds my gears this season.

Didn't the head of sport for nine defect to fox a year or two ago ?

Seems he just decided to make fox channel 9 part two, the shittening

just look at all the ex players doing shows on fox, I mean , how much can they be on? seems you only have to retire and you have a show. Seen hodges at several pubs up here on saturdays punting with a few hangeronerers (is that a word). Wont boost his ego by saying hi until he acknowledges me with a `hi, steve`

That's biggest problem, it's like a business that expands too quickly and loses all quality control. League channel is worse thing to happen to fox as they have filled it with regurgitated shows and ex players who've been punched in the head once too often.
