Matty White was annoying - he got so many calls wrong through the day it started annoying me. Larko was great, I'm happy with Cromley too.
Dunno about Raymond again (or his brother), I loved hearing him before but now I think I'd prefer to just run the blender throughout the race. |

Nobody is as annoying as Greg Rust.
He just went way overboard when the smallest of things happened on the track. |

White is ok, but does not hold a candle to Crompton. Articulate, calm, experienced and conversant with all aspects of the V8's. He gives the coverage some cred imo.

I'd rather see Skaife as a commentator, anything to get the has been off of the track. I'm sure Tander is most unhappy with him.

Like the rugby union, when a half decent player retires they give him a commentating job. He knows the technical side, what the players go through and knows how not to make an of himself. Why not do the same with the drivers?

What about that Williams (is that his last name? Don't really care) doing all the human interest stories at Bathurst.
I don't really care how many Weetbix tander has for breakfast, nor what he eats during the race. Im watching the telecast to see the racing, not that twaddle |

Personally I'm not big on White, but I can't stand Crompton. I know he has a wealth of experience and knowledge under his belt, but he has the personality of a lump of concrete. I've never met the guy and I may be wrong, but that's the vibe I get.

I reckon Thomas Mezera isn't a bad commentator.
