Thoughts on Channel 9's commentators

[adamkungl]

Gus should not commentate Internationals...
Biased against the Kiwis, straight out insulting to the English, and patronising to PNG and lesser sides.

 

[Deek]

The tosser who was the main commentator for the final of the four nations game should change his name to "Cyclops". He needs to realise the game is not over until the final whistle. Making statements like "NZ has finally come up against the best in the world";"the Kiwis are gone"; "the Kangaroos are much better prepared" because " they have been through the toughest league experience there is (State of Origin)" and "they know how to come out the other side"; blah blah bloody blah, only minutes before the Kiwis scored the final points to leave the Kangaroos "hopping" mad in defeat. Well guess what, "tosser", the Kiwis are the world champions. They are, at this moment in time, the best in the world. Remember, the game of league requires TWO teams to play and BOTH teams should be given the respect they deserve. Singing one team's praises while discrediting the other, is not good commentating. It leaves you wide open to eat your own words. Enjoy the meal, Cyclops!

 

[Rovelli]

Not a fan - though I do have plenty of respect for Sterlo.

 

[Steve_oneskie]

to be honest there all pretty dumb especially gus

 

[Desert Qlder]

It is almost as if they couldn't wait to be rid of the game. The constant references to a 'long season' by all were insufferable.

Their contempt is there for all to see. One hope in the outcome of the TV rights negotiations is that Seven get the International competitions.

 

[innsaneink]

Sterlo the only one worth anything.
The rest particulalrly rabs are demented dribblers

 

[Steve_oneskie]

no gus is the worst then ray warren

 

[applesauce]

Rabs has to be one of the most senil f**ks to ever grace a television screen, he is 2nd behind Daryl Somers.

 

[beave]

rabs 'look, Jeremy Smith has one sock up, one sock down......................'

 

[thorson1987]

best commentators are Roy & H.G.

 

[BunniesMan]

Rabs and Gus are legendary commentators. They have real good chemistry and I enjoy listening to them.

Agree totally.

Gould should be barred from commentating internationals into the future.

He has an appalling lack of respect for anything other than the Kangaroos.

 

[nibbs]

i'm sick of gould crapping on about origin

he was shown up last night. twat

 

[juanfarkall]

Gould should be arseholed from making a living off the game point blank.

 

[Parramatta1947]

Rabs spends more time telling us each players life story and reading promotions (and getting players names wrong) than actually calling the game.

Voss is good though.

They don't do that by choice. That's sponsors. No matter who the commentators are, those will still be read. They annoy me too, but they're not the fault of the individual commentators.

Voss is a tosser, he's only good on the Roast, and only then because he's good with Gus and MG! But hate him as a commentator, he doesn't know anything.

Gould - too biased.

His Benji lovefest last night was disgraceful. And that's from someone supporting the Kiwis.

Same with his fairytale, momentum filled, Carney led Roosters bias during the finals.

Umm... It was a Carney-led momentum filled fairytale for the Roosters to get into the finals? How is that bias?

I think i may take a different look on this to everyone else in that i prefer listening to Voss/Fittler/Johns etc then the rest of the bunch. They are great value and come up with some pearlers. Primarily im sitting there to watch the footy.
