Jenny Screen's voice is unlistenable
I'm sure she is a nice lady and all but I have to mute my tv every time she come on the screen.

Agreed. Probably a nice person sure, but undoubtedly the worst commentary member by far.

That's great, keep it on mute then. I don’t think she that good a commentator but it’s got nothing to do with her voice. It would be horrible if we were all the same.

It's simply not professional.
I think most are already accustomed to the mute button due to Heal anyway.

This negativity exists and isn't directed to Jenna Ohea?
I like both of them, but Ohea screams like she's in a nightclub without a microphone

Screen has to be released, making terrible mistakes every single game.

Screen would be a lot more tolerable if she just toned it down a little, didn't directly/indirectly remind us of how good she thinks she is/was constantly, and said less in general. Her tone is irritating, but that's certainly not the worst thing about her. She has the potential to be good.
I think O'Hea always talks loudly. She'd be excellent if she calmed down a little.

If this is the biggest issue in your life right now you are probably doing OK.

Can we please change the thread title to 'Jenny Screen's voice is unlistenable and this is the biggest issue in my life'?

'Small' issue sure, but as paying consumers we should be encouraged to call out product when it obviously doesn’t cut the mustard - in this case commentary :)

with the amount of time this view is being echoed here it feels like an unnecessary change.

Jenny Screen bad???
At least she has "credentials"....
Felix Von Hoffe however.... NO THANKS!!!!
His strategy of throwing jibes during any broadcast / show he's on is equally untalented.

But does he sound like Kermit the Frog with AIDS?

No, and that's pretty much his only redeeming quality.

Von hofe is the bachelor.... All you need to know.
Hopefully it takes him away from basketball.

She is 20 x's better than most they have. She actually teaches the game and gives credible and relevant analysis. Actually knows when to bring excitement to a play. How about listening to what she says as apposed to how it sounds coming out and you’ll have a better appreciation for what she brings. We women don’t have a lot to celebrate when it comes so broadcasting women’s sports so how about you appreciate instead of spread hate.

Can't believe mcQuade hasn’t got the nbl call up, excellent caller, him and Gazey would be exceptional.
No problem with Screen either.

They're also currently based on who lives in Melbourne. He got kicked off the WNBL coverage for the same reason.

McQuade is a good caller for streaming etc, lacks the polish needed to be on a major TV network. It's a shame because he knows his stuff.

To me, commentary is occasionally useful background noise so if there's stuff there I don’t like, I can generally ignore it.
Screen’s voice is distinctive but the content is mainly in line with what everybody else is providing.
The only commentator I actively find annoying enough to note is Corey Williams who thinks he’s giving edgelord opinions when they’re really just banal.
In terms of useful commentators, I found Griffin and Alabakov good on the WNBL side.

I'm off the same opinion PW. Wnbl is far better, except for Gaze.

I keep telling the NBL. Just stick with live commentating like the game when Gaze and Liam were doing live at John Cain Arena.
Personally the NBL did it better from 2016/17 to 2018/19 seasons when live, had locals of each teams.

She was good in the first game last night, then homicide took her spot, they should stuck with her. I like homicide but his commentary at times is so off beat.
I wish they would confirm who the foul was on, how many the player has instead of going off on something that has nothing to do with the game.

Please Jenny come back and replace Damion Lowery.
