Tropes about his works:
- Dull Surprise: One criticism of him is his apparent inability to emote convincingly.
- Not Even Bothering with the Accent: If he doesn't try to put on a (shaky) accent, expect him to just use his natural Australian accent.
- Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping: Another criticism of his acting is his inability to hide his Australian accent.
