Forgot Robbo. Fake emotion at the same minutes in on 360 just scripted bullshit. 360 is a great show whenever he’s away

Favourite

Kane Cornes- always loved listening to him. Knowledgeable, has a go back, doesn’t back down to daisy and Luke Darcy. Does the research. And seems like a good bloke

Mitch cleary- I listen to him quite a bit on various podcasts. Pretty knowledgeable, gets majority of his stuff right, only negative is he doesn’t challenge McClure back

David king- I find him reslly funny on sen. I do appreciate the time he puts into things before he says it. Probably went too hard on fagan but was sortve fair at the time?
Leigh Montagna- he seems pretty balanced in his views. Genuinely believes what he says.
Cal twomey- best journalist in the afl.

Least-
Sam mcclure - need I say more
Andy maher smug prick. Think he’s some legend
Jon ralph- smug prick can’t stand him
Dale Thomas
Luke Darcy- ****wit

Favourite
Cornes - Runs the media, is a troll
Kingy - Like Cornes different to everyone else
Morris - Best journo, very sharp, rarely wrong.
Papala - Good caller, refreshing and can create excitement

Least
McLure - In a league of his own, not a single redeeming feature
Maher - Terrible in every regard
Whately - Good caller but his ego controlls him. AFL and Hinkley mouthpiece. Can feel how full of shit he is through the TV.
D.Thomas - One of those blokes who gets outraged easily.
 
Favourites:

Leigh Matthews: still speaks more sense and simplifies any topic far better than most

Matt Hill: best tv caller by a long way for mine, clear and accurate

Sarah Jones: best game day and/or studio host by a fair margin

Jason Dunstall: clear, no nonsense analysis. Bounce role definitely excluded from this rating!

Worst:

Mark Robinson: long overdue sacking from 360 should improve that show immensely. Has done / did well to last as long as he has in multiple highly paid, high profile media roles with very little talent for any of them. His bias and total lack of professionalism in relation to Essendon / Hird / Sheedy matters alone should have been enough to see him fired long ago

Caroline Wilson: used to regularly break big stories and occasionally still does, but for the most part now comes across as bitter and vengeful. Makes a living from a game and industry in which she seems to hate most of the participants

Damien Barrett: makes the two above look fair and measured by comparison. Just a gutter 'journo' of the worst kind.

David King: manages to be significantly wrong very regularly for someone so arrogantly dismissive of the opinions of others. Laptop prop doesn't make him look smarter or better informed than his peers, it just makes him look like a flog.
 
Least:
'Huddo'
Brayshaw
Brownless
Hasleby

Faves:
Lynch
J. Reiwoldt
Hill
Matthews

Andy 'Birrarung' Maher gets a special mention - I actually like his game commentary, but is unlistenable on his SEN afternoon show.
