Anyone else over Voss?

[Terry Zarsoff]

No. I still rate it as one of Patrick White's best novels.

Did Patrick grow up in Leichhardt?

He use to be my favourite caller to listen to when he was at nine , he was actually good and actually called the games properly. Now I can’t stand the bloke and he is so annoying on fox.

c'mon ... he's always been a tosser ... he's just getting worse

 

[Tragic Eagle]

I rate him no 2 most urrating and anti Manly commentator IMO.
1. W Smith
2. Voss
3. Anasta
4. Parker

I want my Kao money back if I have to keep listening to this bloke. Is it just me? Burbo is vertical and Vossy wants to argue it wasn't dangerous! Imagine if Alex Johnson was vertical trying to score a try? He'd wet his pants. So bad. Embarrassing. Death rides us all night.

He is a joke, carrying on about that make believe tackle in the air, the replay shut the flog up quick

 

[Budgie]

Rabbits was the gold standard. He always highlighted the really great stuff ,"oh, that was special", and called with perfectly modulated enthusiasm. His positivity really grew our love for the game and made us feel good.

The bloke we're stuck with listening to now, picks a team, death rides the other, and points out everything that's wrong with the game. Cannot stand a bar of him. I suspect Cooper Cronk isn't a fan either

 

[Jimmie]

I really enjoyed listening to Rex …called it like he played. Was brutal only on manly when they were losing because he was hurting .

 

[LeonardCohen]

The issue with Voss is ego. He is nowhere near the talent he thinks he is; all the greats were gifted with a unique voice but he sounds like a guy you'd meet every day at the local pub. There's nothing distinctive about his vocal timbre. I haven't even started on the content of his speech...

My missus who couldn't give a crap about NRL and never watches games was sitting here tonight listening to this flog, and said " he's really wants the other team to win this commentator doesn't he ". I turned down the sound after that. Made the win much more enjoyable.

 

[Ben]

Voss is a well known manly hater. Should never be allowed to call our games

Well thanks to your good lady mate. I highlighted the point to about 7 non-Manly supporting mates a few weeks ago as we watched a game together. By the end of the game they were a bit shocked how bad it was, and they were all joking about it. Bring back Justin Hodges I said (the worst commentator of all time - except for Vossy). I didn't want to mention blind Freddy could see it, as Vossy would probably bring up some time the Panthers / Roosters were robbed against Manly when Brad Fittler was playing. Anyhow, as someone mentioned above, it makes you miss Rabbits. Don't know what you've got till it's gone. It makes Gus and Joey a viable option when it's possible, and that's saying something.

Thanks Andy. I'll pass on your appreciation.
