Ive been trying to take note of Ian smith this year and his comments. I find him absolutely nauseating in his campaigning for the Kiwis....over the first two ODI's he has non stop unashamedly wished bad luck on the Aussies, made comment about every boundary a NZ player makes floggin on for minutes afterwards with 'Intelligent' , 'one of the best shots you will ever see"...etc.etc eve though it may have been a good but not particularly spectacular shot......

Just such a flog.
 
So he's the Kiwi version of most of our commentators who fap relentlessly about our players.

Don't mind Smithy to be honest.
 
In other words Smith sounds like all the aussie commentators, with the reasonable excuse that the aussies don't have, that his team has been massively written off underdogs literally every time they've played Australia (and every time they've played most countries, really) since Hadlee was at his peak.

What a shocking thread. Almost the entire ch 9 commentary team barrack ridiculously for Aus. Its nauseating. They're terrified of saying anything bad about us, even when we're garbage. I dont like clarke but at least he's occasionally willing to criticise when we do something stupid.

I'd much rather listen to smithy than our flogs.

Of course if you want good commentary, listen to abc radio.

He's a good commentator.

You're a flog.

I actually think he's worse. More articulate and presents himself better, but more of a barracker

Smithy has been taunting Aussies his entire career. As a player, like a lot of wicketkeepers, he didn't mind giving a bit of lip to the opposition. And he's carried that into his career as a commentator. I really don't mind him, because I reckon he's on point a lot of the time. Do I wish he was a little less one-eyed? Sure... but nowhere near as much as I wish that Slater, Healy or Warne were less one-eyed.
