Tim Gilbert isn't a very good commentator but you can tell he genuinely likes Rugby League so at least his heart is in the right place
His sickening display this morning of Man-Crush on SBW notwithstanding, I have nothing against this guy...but does anyone wonder how in Gods name he landed a job on TV!? He didn't get it for being a good-looking guy, his takes are vanilla-grade generic & he is utterly devoid of any charm, wit or charisma.
Don't get me wrong --- I'm not saying he's terrible. That's what Paul Kent & Terry Kennedy are for. But he is just so BLAND. Any fans of Gilbert? What is his appeal to you?
I like him for the most part.
Though it is hilarious how he tries to put shit on TK all the time.
It's like how every group of friends has the weakest member of the group. Then there's the 2nd weakest, who constantly gives him shit, just to impress the others.
What a jibberer - i turned off the moment Dilbert was commentating
I hate hate hate the way he cuts people off to change the subject to something more dull - even in commentating
eesh
I recall him calling one of the preliminary games on grand final day in 2012. Someone was going for a conversion, but missed. Too bad Gilbert said he kicked it, to which the other commentators started paying him out. He then sheepishly answered that he wasn't watching.
The guy has absolutely no credibility whatsoever. Who gave him a job???
So the once best show on tele the sunday roast is two segments now
And half of that is "Top 5 Best ever tries"
The roast once went for an hour in a few episodes towards the end of Vossy and now its 15 mins
goodness gracious
Gyngell, of course. I remember when Gyngell's missus was on The Roast ages ago - Gilbert sucked up her ass so bad.
I am hoping that this is some good news for some, while bad news for others.
Tim Gilbert has been announced has the sports presenter for the weekday Today program, to start from early next year. Thus leaving the weekend Today show.
I don't regularly watch breakfast tv, so his move to weekdays doesn't really affect me that much. But in saying this, I am hoping that he no longer airs on The Sunday Footy Show anymore as an insane arrogant "Sunday Roast segment" host and a part time commentator. Fingers crossed.
I cannot post the link (as a comment regarding this site got banned a few weeks ago) in regards to Gilbert hosting weekday Today.
Tim Gilbert is a rugby league media girly man.

His calling of the final stages of the 20s GF was by far the worst commentary I've ever heard for a game of Rugby League - and that's remembering that Dell and Kevvie once had the box to themselves when Vossy had the trots or something.
Sums up this talentless bum to a tee.He is the Gavin Robertson version of television. Fence sitter, everyone's friend, bum licker
