Radio James Brayshaw. Good commentator?

[mr bagcroft]

If 'good commentator' is code for 'insufferable c*nt' then yes, JB is indeed a 'good commentator'.

10 times worse once you add that fat ******* buffoon imbecile BT into the mix.
Diabolical pair !

 

[1989]

"He's a good player".

"He's a great player".

 

[Mentallo]

"A ripping game of football"

Yep, BT seems to bring out the worst in his colleagues.

The 'banter' they did over which Cats player kicked the goal in the 2nd quarter was self-indulgent tripe. Does anyone find that entertaining?

 

[Lockyer24]

I’m on board. I reckon he gets the job done and has just enough personality to be a long term success.

That's the precise moment I muted the tv and put on some tunes.

Normally don't mind JB mainly on triple m, he's alright on 7. But watching the suns and blues game. He's barely getting a word in over Richo and Darcy but when he does he sounds like a 13 year old boy going through puberty.

 

[revo333]

I like him, one of my favourites.

There is a world of difference between BT and JB on Triple M than on 7. Very good commentators on MMM. Not as good on television.

Wonder how much the producers(?) have to do with it as I’ve found television commentators just aren’t as good as radio ones.

I would assume its related to TV has to be general where as MMMs is unique in the radio landscape.

Whenever a player wears a mullet, Bradshaw seems to get more excited about that than he would if North won the flag.

 

[Plugger35]

Him and BT are doing a pretty good job on Ch7's Friday night coverage, he's been an improvement on Bruce who was well past his use by date.

Last night Brayshaw said the port Adelaide members ballot was sold out in seconds.
how does a ballot sell out in seconds?

 

[Orange crush]

Absolute bum gravy of the highest order

Lol, I thought the same thing when he said it.
Absolute blowhard, almost miss Bwuce....Almost.

 

[1989]

Every second word is 'reeeaaal' or 'reeeaaaly' and so much of his commentary these days relies on stating that somebody is a good player, a great player or a star.

 

[Go_Roos!]

Long ball, short ball, good ball, bad ball. For 150yrs it has been described for what it is, long kick, short kick, good kick, bad kick. Why , oh why change?

this infuriates me no end. so much so i have started compiling a list of all the different "balls" he says.

these from the last quarter of essendon bulldogs only:
- really important ball
- not a great ball
- high ball
- low drilling ball
- long ball
- tumbling ball
- good ball
- inside 50 ball

 

[1989]

For a long time I enjoyed the blokiness and colour Brayshaw brought to commentary, but especially on television, it has become extremely repetitive and robotic, lacking any substance.

 

[Wight Wolf]

DEFENDING GRIMLY

uses it every match. well done brayshaw you have created a cool phrase, please stop f***ing our earholes with it

 

[Royalbeagle]

Pretty tired of hearing him yell. Constantly. The sound of his polyps just makes me go the simulcast option.
Paired with BT is not good for me personally.

 

[Mentallo]

LONG BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!
THUMPING BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!
LOW BALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!

 

[Bald]

Really enjoy his commentating on Triple M. Similarly to BT it just doesn’t translate well to TV.

 

[Hoos]

Really enjoy his commentating on Triple M.
