Although not Lions based Jack Dyer was infamous for his qoutes, known as "Dyerisms". There was the one about the player leaping high and taking a mark like an octopus with giant testicles but my favorite was when he was calling a game and when asked to comment he said "I'm not going to say anything just in case I say something". I have used this at work lately and it has proved quite successful.

- Mark Twain (the undisputed king of quotes as far as I'm concerned).

[TheBrownDog]

"We're gonna have a party tonight, Browny!!!" - Mr Pike to Mr Brown after the 2001 Grand Final.


I think it was actually more like...

Brown: We'll party hard tonight, what do you reckon Pikey?
Pike: Think you might be right Browndog.
