Ch 7 commentators ! ! ! !

Post: # 1667266Post saintbrat »

If this is their only employment they would be getting a 'D' on their report from me
Several are trying too hard to be the next Commetti - who was also going beyond with the 'phrase in 3 words' highlights
Both BT and Bruce regularly and repeatedly call players by the wrong name.
We had an extra Jack out there last night. ( his name is Josh'

No wonder I listen to the umpires radio -atleast they get the players names right
And atleast 3 of the radio stations had commentators who were trying to ' create the catch phrase'rather than 'Tell the game' as it is happening.

Bruce got Josh wrong twice in last qu
They also got Jake wrong

Listening to last qu this morning - BT calls it like he is on radio- over commentates - the pictures are telling the story just fill in the basics

And the absolute love for Mumfords aggression was ridiculous. At one stage Carey gave credit to Mumford for crashing in and deliberately falling on some saints players. In actual fact Longer came in and just pushed Mumford over and he tripped over the saints players on the ground. Nobody could of got hurt other than Mumford.

I'm no great fan of BT, Bruce or Carey. But gee it must be tough calling a team with 5 Jacks, a Jade, a Josh and a Jake!

Mumford did try and line Rooey up in the first quarter.

The fat slug missed and Rooey gave him a mouthfull

If you had 5 jacks playing poker, someone might accuse you of cheating.

Anyway, with Lonnie being BOG today, next week we might have 6.

Didn't Jade get called Jake at one stage? Wish we did have two of him.

Even George Best and Oliver Reed couldn't hack the pace in that game, poatina.
