Here's a link to the dumbest football survey of all time. Some of the questions are a mindless waste of time. They could have done so much better, but I guess News LTD do not want us discussing the real issues.

BTW, Anyone who puts Ray Hadley in as the best radio commenator is ultra dumb. That bloke deserves no accolades when it comes to RL.

I put down the "Wok" for radio commentator after his spot on assessment of Kimmorley last weekend.

The Worst CEO questions was strange, I'd say it will be a duel between Doust and Fitzgerald.

This love to hate and worst rubbish is typical childish DT rubbish. Real issues please.

Best player in the comp noms:

Locker
Thurston
Farah
Mason
Hindmarsh
Buderus
Bowen
Williams
Prince

Now there's some fair names on there and some worthy choices. But i thought they may have found a spot for Cameron Smith on the list. I know there's an option for other but i would've thought his name would be one of the first picked.

 

[wittyfan]

Big Willie would not be pleased to see both Farah and Buderus on the same list.

Yeah it's pretty sh*t. I put down Cameron Smith.

Toughest player = Paul Gallen.

He's a tosser whose League show is crap and is clueless. But he is a good commentator. Best radio personality? No way in hell. Best radio commentator? He's right up there.

Iffy questions, which team/player/coach/ceo do you hate?

I mean come on!

I would have like some more serious questions. Ones that were worth answering. It seems they think the NRL fans who read the Telegraph is comprised of Reg Reagan style malcontents with manure for brains.

Not to mention the Joey Immortal questions

Not to mention the Joey Immortal questions

:lol: yeah those were rather amusing considering he writes for them. I am surprised they weren't worded:

Joey is the next immortal for sure?
Definitely yes, yes or probably

I went bias vote for toughest player - Alan Tongue. Any player his size that makes that many effective tackles on big players must be close to toughest.

Most underrated I went for Cooper Cronk.

Why doesn't LU run one itself, it would definitely be more analytical than "Which coach wouldn't you want coaching your team?" type surveys.......they could have a period where people suggest / choose what areas need to be covered in the survey and then produce the questions which match suggestions. The whole thing could be done on the net and possibly even tie in with some promotion on 2SM as being a rival / fan based survey which gives a smaller yet more accurate and focused grass roots opinion on the state of the game.

I'll try and pm the msg to a mod or something.

 

[slaytera]

sounds like a good idea Impellitteri!

Yeah it's pretty sh*t. I put down Cameron Smith.

Agree. Smith is bordering on greatness, and he didn't get on the starting list?

 

[ockham]

sounds like a good idea Impellitteri!

Agree. Great idea. Mass Media outlets have lost touch. The Footy Show etc. is irrelevant to people who want to watch football. Seriously, if my TV didn't have a mute button I couldn't watch the telecast of games.

 

[Charlie124]

I didnt notice smith wasnt on the list, should be, although i voted Thurston.

i didnt think it was too bad a survey, the Joey question was stupid.

 

[kia ora storm]

Best player - Cam Smith
Toughest - Ben Cross
Most Underated - Alan Tongue

Great idea. A survey with real questions, not kindergarten crap like the Telegraph produce.

Ray is a good 'caller', but that's it.

The question says commentator so I take that as anyone who talks league on the radio. They don't actually have to call games. That includes Graeme Hughes, Brandy, Gibbsy, the lot.

Ray is a terrible league 'commentator' these days.
