I must admit, I don't particularly like Erin Molan. I'm not sure if it's simply due to her co-hosting roles on 20 To 1 and The NRL Footy Show, but I no longer think of her as being a quality journalist.

Perhaps it's because I only really see her on Friday/Saturday (and Sunday to Thursday fill-in) Sports segments on Nine News Sydney, but I don't think Erin Molan is all that bad of a TV presenter.
Although I do know some people out there who can't stand Erin Molan, primarily because of her role on The NRL Footy Show although I personally wonder if peoples dislike for Erin has only strengthened in recent times now her father is a very controversial senator? I'd really hate to think that's the case, but I'm sure some people out there would look at Jim Molan's political views and wonder if his daughter has the same mindset...

I believe her public image has suffered as a result of her roles on 20 To 1 and The NRL Footy Show, to be honest. Her father's role in politics could also be a factor, but I think most average-TV viewers wouldn't even be aware of who her father is. I do tend to agree that her presenting isn't bad, as such, and I don't really have an issue with her presenting the sport on Friday/Saturday. However, for her career to truly prosper, I really think she needs to step-down from her co-hosting roles on 20 To 1 and The NRL Footy Show. A sports presenter of Sydney's highest-rating news service shouldn't be presenting programs such as those.

I know they're technically not presenters, but I really don't like 9Honey commentators, Jo Abi and Shelley Horton. They strike me as being hardcore feminists who blame men for all of society's issues and I mostly disagree with the views they express on programs such as Today Extra and Nine News Now.

This moment in the Sunrise team: Whenever the Sunrise team go on vacation, they don’t report on news stories, oddly going with exploring (and interviewing locals), parodies (The Gilligan’s Island one when they went to Hawaii) and they believe NO NEWS TODAY (of course).

The production crew probably think that it's a great way to not make Sunrise seem monotonous.

To be honest, I don't like Ita Buttrose. She comes across as snobbish and an elitist.

If Network Ten continue to use them on multiple primetime programs, I think Grant Denyer, Dr Chris Brown and Julia Morris might make this list at some point in the future!
Another one I'm going to add to the list right now is Ray Warren. Yes, he's an Australian icon when it comes to rugby league commentary and is possibly the last major presenter in an iconic 1980s/1990s "Wide World of Sports" team still on air right now (with most others having retired or sadly passed on in recent years), but I think it's time he considered retirement.
If he feels up to it, maybe have Ray Warren back for 2019 so Nine can do the inevitable heavy promotion of it being Ray's final season (especially around Origin/NRL Finals time), with the NRL 2019 Grand Final being his final call and the next generation taking over for the start of a new decade.

I'm surprised that Ray Warren hasn't already retired, to be honest. I think there was even talk about last year being his final year of commentating, but it didn't come to anything. Either way, I personally believe he'll likely retire sometime within the next 12-18 months.

Re, Kyle Sandilands: Have any of the programs he's hosted on TV over the years been that popular? I know he was a judge on Australian Idol before being kicked off shortly after the infamous lie-detector incident in 2009, but even then I'm pretty sure the show reached it's peak without him as a judge.

A few more to add to the list:
Denise Scott - Why is she a television presenter? Honestly. It's as if Channel Ten just picked a random middle-aged woman off the streets and said, "hey, we're short of presenters, would you like to be a panelist on our struggling mid-morning problem?" She isn't a great panelist, nor is she a good comedian.
Chris Uhlmann - I've just never been able to take to him and I don't know why.
Ita Buttrose - Like I mentioned earlier, I think she comes across as an elitist and snobbish.

I really want to bump this with my opinion, so I will  Some have already been said, but i'll just mention them again anyway. Robert Ovadia: Have watched him on Seven Morning News a couple of times and always become amazed as to how he gets presenting roles. His pronunciation is very poor and he regularly stumbles on words. Mark Burrows: Good reporter, but a boring and fairly bland presenter. He seems to show very little personality when reading the news, not saying this is his actual personality though as he may be a nice person. Jane Bunn: She knows what she's talking about, but her delivery is a little overly enthusiastic. She is clearly passionate about the weather, but it is sometimes a little off putting! I would rather her as a meteorologist over someone who is not though. Samantha Armytage: I used to like her as a newsreader (from mid 2000s to about 2012), but she is a little irritating on Sunrise. Her newsreading seems to be not that good anymore either. Jacqueline Felgate: Her tone doesn't change at all when she's reading, her appointment as weekend sports presenter in Melbourne still astounds me as Sean Sowerby was doing that job well! Brett McLeod: I expect this to be controversial, but i've never been a fan of him as a presenter. I consider him as technically correct, but he is just so bland and cold! I've never seen him smile or engage in any banter with the other presenter in any of the bulletins i've watched with him at the helm. Once again, it probably isn't a representation of his real life personality.

One of my best friends from primary school actually got the opportunity to meet Mark Ferguson when he visited his high school seven years ago. I never spoke to my friend about it, but he mentioned on his Facebook status that Mark was very friendly and approachable. He even got a photo taken with my friend as well.

I'm watching an encore of "Show Me The Movie!" at the moment (it's just something I've got on in the background) and to be honest, I can't say that I have ever been a fan of Mark Humphries. I just don't think he's very likable.
