Sonny Bill Williams beats Bali bomber on most hated list

22/09/2008 11:52:00 AM.  | AAP
Rugby league deserter Sonny Bill Williams has edged out Bali bomber Amrozi to be named Australia's most hated person in a notorious annual poll.

Williams has topped men's mag Zoo Weekly's annual Top 50 People We Hate List, released today.

Zoo editor Paul Merrill said the now French rugby player was the clear winner.

"Sonny Bill is someone who did something no Australian should do, he ditched his teammates and walked out," Merrill told AAP.

"We're calling him Money Bill Williams for scarpering off to another continent just for the cash."

Federal MP Belinda Neal was third, disgraced AFL player Wayne Carey was fourth for "shagging his mate's missus" and "even the name Wayne" while swimmer Nick D'Arcy rounded out the top five.

SA attorney-general Michael Atkinson came in at six for blocking R-rated video games, followed by the Pope for "shutting down our streets and filling them with a bunch of weirdos" during World Youth Day in Sydney.

"Generally we don't like him (the Pope) he's old and looks a bit strange, like he should be in Star Wars," Merrill said.

Based on men's views, the list included everybody from an incest father and daughter couple, bank chief executives and "the girl from the AAMI ads".

Surprise inclusions were pop star Madonna (44), golfer Greg Norman (13) and Sex and the City star Sarah Jessica Parker (32).

Last year's winner Silverchair frontman Daniel Johns is out, while 2006 winner, radio shock jock Kyle Sandilands has slipped to 19.

TV personalities to make the list included the character Toadie from Network Ten soap Neighbours, Johanna Griggs for being "annoying" during Seven's Olympic coverage and Sunrise host David Koch.

"Toadie has just been on the show for too long, he's not a great character and we wish he wasn't on the show," Merrill said.

"And David Koch because he's a bit of an old fart."

Featuring last year, but spared this time were Roseanne Barr, Eddie McGuire, OJ Simpson, Owen Wilson and Gretel Killeen.

Number 1 should be all the people who read Zoo Weekly. That should be seen as being a diagnosable mental illness. Number 2 Should be the people who write and publish it.
