I find it amazing how highly regarded Robert Walls is within the general football community.  He has to be the most overrated football person there is.  His commentary is hopeless......he is the master of stating the obvious.  Never has anything insightful to say. 

Walls, Gieschen, Frawley......no wonder we are where we are.

That pretty much sums it up.

Walls walked into Richmond claiming Northey's gameplan was too predictable and we needed to add more possession. Geez that worked well. The only player of any skill and class Walls added to the Club was Joel and he was a father-son. Gas, Chaffey and Holland were the only other 100+ game Tigers Walls recruited from 20 recruits. A 20% success rate  .

If Robert Walls had anything to say to anyone it would be behind bullet proof glass, as he's one of the biggest cowards i have ever seen play our game. As Harry said before he says things that are so obvious there is no reason to say them. And for people to listen to a nut case like him will I don't know. If the game is live and he's commentating I turn the sound off and listen to the comentary on the radio.

When he is commentating Mini Me and I do our own, which can be hilarious, especially when you don't know half the oppositions names.

55 Steven McKee   - 20 games

 

McKee eventually netted us Troy Simmonds.

The Pies gave pick 3 for him  

We picked Aaron Fiora

Julz ultimate commentary:

Simmo taps it down to Richo who dishes it off to Simmo who kicks long to where Richo takes big pack mark. Richo plays on to Simmo who get it back to Richo ....goal!

"And as we can see, Richo has been working hard in the gym over the summer"

Bit wordy.  Normally just consists of "Simmo (hubba hubba) .... Riiiiccchhhooo (woohoo)!!!"

[Jacosh]

I like listening to his commentary.........
.......................................................
NO really.....

It just astounds me how he (and Frawley esp) can see exactly what Terry and the boys are doing wrong and how easliy it can be fixed.
Seriously you HAVE to laugh if you dont youll end up having a heart attack caused by these #%^*(^)!%^ and their "expert" commts.

A lot easier to see the whole pattern of the game, where teammates and opponents are and where the ball should be kicked to, from the media box up in the grandstand. Walls has a habit of praising a player one week when their team is winning and then bagging the same player the next when they are losing.
