Rumour: Warren Smith Sacked from Fox

[Guest]

smith has been sacked from nrl on fox - ryan will be the new host - as for calling games, i still think he gets a gig

I agree with you all he does death ride the roosters, tough to listen to at times however he is better than some others around

Ryan Phelan is the biggest wanker currently associated with the game.

He's an ill informed, awkward, unnecessarily opinionated, AFL enjoying bell end and has no place watching a Rugby League game let alone hosting a TV show about it.

I have to ask - what is a bell end?

Couldn't agree more. Its like watching someone who doesn't have a clue about the game talk as if they know everything. At least Smith has a passion for the game and I thought he was ok as compere of the show

Smith is just sacked from NRL on Fox, but he will be still commentating on the weekends.

I thought Wendell is doing The Nine Footy Show?

He has contracts with both Nine & Fox?

He's really spreading himself across the networks because he's just finished appearing on seven's australia's greatest athlete programme

Well he was working for 9 for the Winter Olympics, so that could be true!

Nine and Fox shared their commentators for the Olympics, e.g. Andrew Voss' luge commentary was also used for the Fox broadcast.

Bugger, hope they still have the option to mute the commentary and just hear the ref and the crowd,

Doing well to be front and centre in this picture if he got punted entirely!

Foxtel were covering the Winter Olympics and Channel 9 were taking their feed for some events.

He wasn't sacked from that, Fox have decided not to use their main sports commentators (all codes) as hosts for weekly programmes..

That's a big call.. I think Ray Hadley has a mortgage on that title.. Agree though with the rest of your comments.

Nothing and I repeat nothing is as bad as the CH9 RL commentary.
It sets a benchmark that no one could get lower than.

Ray Warren is embarrassingly bad, but Andrew Voss is very good

Peter Sterling is the best special comments guy by a mile, and even though everyone hates him, Gould's understanding of the game is matched only by Sterlings

Andrew Johns is just plain terrible, Ben Ikin has improved but still struggles
