Tim Watson’s top 5 media performers in 2025
SEN • July 30th, 2025 11:38 am
SEN stalwart and media veteran Tim Watson has listed his top five AFL media performers in 2025.
Watson sought advice from his “trusted ten” who helped form his final five.
“I had ten people and I had to nail down five,” Watson said on SEN Breakfast.
“These are the names that appeared most.
“In no particular order, although this person received more votes from my trusted ten than anybody else - Kane Cornes.
“Next was Gerard Whateley, then Nick Riewoldt, Matthew Lloyd and Garry Lyon.
“Hand on heart, the votes that came back from my trusted ten, it’s amazing how many people had a very similar top five.”
