A survey conducted on Damian Barrett and Craig Hutchison's The Sounding Board podcast has provided an insight over a number of interest footy topics.
Over 1000 people answered the inaugural survey, which included the question "who is the most respected AFL news breaker".
Somewhat predictably, The Sounding Board's own Barrett was voted first with 30.3% of votes. Caroline Wilson (16%) and Jake Niall (15.8%) round out the top three.
"In fairness, this was aimed to our Sounding Board listenership, I'd be disappointed if he didn't win it," said Hutchison.
Who is the most respected AFL news breaker?

Another interesting question put to fans was 'Who is the most annoying AFL media identity', with Basil Zempilas (18.6%) taking out the honours ahead Cameron Ling (16.3%) and Kane Cornes (15.9%).
Barrett jokingly posed to Hutchison regarding his low placing compared to on the Herald Sun's 'most annoying media person' poll: "You've warmed. Do you think on the Herald Sun one (list) you might be a bit more prominent?"
To which Hutchison replied: "Much worse!! Top three finish for sure."
