    How would woofers rate the Brownlow coverage?

    When will they put Bruce out to pasture? Beyond creepy.
    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    I'll say it again.

    If we're remotely open to salvaging our investment in Jake, sit him down in a room with Bevo, Dusty & Hardwick.

    Needs a revamp as possibly the worst ever, Angry and Meatloaf in the Batmobile would have improved the coverage.

    Bruce is just a sickening creep. A marauding presence who seems to out pervert himself each year.

    Horrible and cheesy coverage, I struggle with the concept of this format appealing to anyone.

    Yes certainly agree with the sentiment of the coverage. It was not great.

    Terrible with Dusty who is very dry/uncomfortable with the full on attention.

    Re: 2017 Brownlow Medal

    Why did he need to sneak up behind him twice in the last few rounds knowing how awkward it was going to be? Why? It was like a pantomime or something, and would have been weird even if the target was a seasoned media performer.

    Bruce is cooked - stick a fork in him. But having Daisy Pearce as his sidekick was cringeworthy. She is an awful media talent - awkward, stilted and cannot finish a sentence without tripping over her words.

    The AFL have lamentably been last to the female sports party, disgustingly trying to poach established players from other codes in the process, and are now trying to shove everyone down our throats. Daisy Pearce, Erin Phillips and co are sportspeople, not media performers. Have a look at the women commentating on Rugby League - they are naturals in front of the camera precisely because they are from the media.

    Re: 2017 Brownlow Medal

    I haven't watched the Brownlow for about 20 years I found it boring , full of ads,drawn out and all about what the women are wearing.
    Also the Bruce " I will love anyone who wins " Macavaney syndrome.
    He is the most embarrassing person on tv.
    I am betting he mentioned Carey and Rioli at some stage and if Ling was on it he would have kept reminding Bruce how good his call was.
    My god it's one horrid tv spectacle nowadays, self loathing rubbish I really feel sorry for the players who have to put up with Bruce and his spying on tables trying to find some inane trivia.
    Next year he will probably focus on a player and describe what he is eating, how many chews and the calories consumed.
    Then follow him back to the bedroom filming him sleeping.
    Bring back the biff
