Andrew Voss (born 7 September 1966) is an Australianrugby league commentator and radio and television personality who works forFox League.
Voss previously worked for theSKY Network Television as a commentator, and at theNine Network, includingToday,NRL Footy Show,The Sunday Footy Show andThe Sunday Roast. He andEddie Hemmings are the two commentators for the video gameRugby League Live 4.
In the 1990s and 2000s, Voss hosted several of the Nine Network's rugby league-related TV shows. He began appearing onThe Footy Show in 1997 as a regular guest, starring in different sketches and in group discussions.[1]
In time, he was the Nine's Network's number-two rugby league caller behindRay Warren. In 2012, he was demoted to the number-three caller behindRay Hadley. This occurred after Hadley strongly and personally criticised Voss for jokingly questioning on-air the likeness of a statue of Warren erected in Warren's hometown ofJunee, New South Wales. Voss then sued Hadley for defamation, and the matter was settled out of court.[2] It was revealed in 2011 that Voss had had a long-running feud with Hadley, dating back to 1994 when they both worked at Sydney radio station2UE.[3]
Also in 2009, Voss hostedAustralia's Greatest Athlete for the Nine Network, a program which screened on Saturday afternoons.[citation needed]
