Worst Media Personality

Postby Mr66 » Mon May 16, 2011 9:21 pm

I found Mark Ricciuto totally annoying during the WC-Freo game
His constant use of 'catch' instead of 'mark' had me tuning the sound down several times.
Plus he has a very nasally and monotone voice. Yecch!
I've only just got onto Luke Darcy via another thread and come to the quick conclusion that he is a plonker.
Anyone got someone else?

Can't stand any of them. Don't mind Matty Lloyd too much but you can keep the rest. And they got rid of Kelli Underwood who has a sense of humour because she's got tits. How she is considered worse than the creepy man love stuff Bruce does I'll never know. I used to like Wayne Carey who used to make sense and Clynton Grybas was king but they really are a poor lot it has to be said.

My vote goes for Ricciuto too. Very annoying to the point I changed the channel

I've often thought the term "media personality" to be paradoxical because the one thing many of them lack is just that .. a personality.

watching brad johnson and roo at half time yesterday was painful, personally thought johnson was horrible and there was no flow when he spoke. That said i must say most of the recent retirees that fox have commentating at the moment aren't to bad.

Glen Jakovich is pretty ordinary. Can't stand Liam Pickering for some reason. That Hutchy from Footy Classified is a clown and also can't handle that Melbourne footy writer Mark Robinson the few times I've come across AFL 360.

Agree with all those Gonzo. For me Maher and Hidson are on that list, they are just little sensationalist drama queens.

Robbo is worst out there.
AFL 360 worst footy show on tv.

Bruce unintentionally made his fellow commentators chuckle last weekend when Jack Riewoldt went for a specky.

"Oh if Jack Riewoldt took that... I was gonna get excited!"

Reakon he did anyway...

I think that 360 is one of the better ones on tv, record and watch it every week. each to their own i guess.

Bruce McAvaney and Malcolm Blight then daylight.
As much as I dislike Bruce as a commentator (he's a nice bloke though), Blight would probably win with his ridiculously dumb and obvious comments.
And yeah Riccuito ain't great either.
I too miss Clinton Grybas. :(
