Likes Shane Clayton as a player because "he's tough"!!!??

Unlike some I can think of some positives in Shane's game but being "tough" wouldn't exactly be one of them.

Lay off Shane!

He and Shannon Grant are our muscle and we certainly would be worse off without them.

Last week he apparently labelled Djaren Whyman as the next Aaron Davey.

If he knew the first thing about Whyman, he wouldn't have made that call. Ridiculous.

I heard that comment too, but I think he was referring to Jeremy Clayton - he didn't mention a first name. They had commented several times earlier about how he was such a good strong mark for a player that height.

Heard him say Jeremy Clayton was a gun..............at VFA/l level. The rest of the dribble he came with, well i thought i was watching a different game

Along the lines of one Peter Mc kenna saying 'keenan reyolds will be one of Norths greatest recruits'.

The more VFL I watch, the more I think that Phil is very ordinary commentator. He has a knack of contradicting himself constantly. He also tries to 'like' every player which is annoying.

Give me Pete Donegan any day!

I agree I think he was referring to Jeremy Clayton.

hes not really a commentator, or even a special comments person. Hes more of a barracker the way he yells all the time. I think its great, Id take most of his comments over Robert Walls anyday.

I don't mind Phil Cleary either. I find him to be a person who commentates like a person who is there for the enjoyment of the game.
