Classic commentator lines.....

[Frustrated Tiger]

Gerard Healy from the 1995 Richmond v Essendon game " Saw an Essendon player have a go at Michael Gale but I wouldn't like to finger him"......what the?????

 

[westcoastiger]

Jonathon Brown heading for goal gets tackled by the shorts and they get pulled down revealing his butt. Commentator ... 'Ah the cracks are starting to appear in the defense'

Dennis Cometti after a failed attempt at a spectacular missed mark. 'Well he missed the ball completely but its 9.5 from the russian judge!'

 

[RichoRox12]

A more recent one during a Collingwood match:

'Dick gives it from behind..'

Then about 5 seconds silence.

 

[TOOs_Finest]

A few good quotes from D. Cometti from over the years.

"Cousins, runs away from Carr ... not the first time we've seen that this season."

After Darren Gaspar hits the post from 40 metres out: "Gaspar, the unfriendly post."

On Melbourne's Adam Yze: "A terrific player . . . terrible scrabble hand."

"Ball to Barker to Barlow - The Hawks are attacking alphabetically"

"Liberatore went into that optimistically & came out mistioptically."

Gold Dea Day.

That reminds me of the days when Rex Hunt would yell out 'Gasper the friendly ghost'.

 

[copthat]

When North were wearing their Argentinian strip.

Someone got hit on the head with the ball and Cometti goes.

'I think the Roos are taking their outfit a little bit too far'

Classic.

 

[Ferdinand Lewis]

Late in the 1969 gf

"I tell you what. Anyone with a weak heart had better go outside"

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

McAvaney

"They are starting to roar now...these Tigers...ROOOAAAAARRRRRR"

 

[RichoRox12]

McAvaney

"They are starting to roar now...these Tigers...ROOOAAAAARRRRRR"

Best call so far.

It was really funny, but so awesome at the same time.

 

[Rustof]

Gotta love Cometti for his witty jokes and McAvaney for his 'delicious' commentary.

 

[Mario Speedwagon]

A copuple of non-Footy classics:

He's going for the pink, and for those of you with black-and-white sets, the yellow is behind the blue.

-Snooker commentator "Whispering" Ted Lowe

The Bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willey

- BBC Radio cricket commentator Brian Johnston

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

" Delicious " when Bruce was referring to Cyril Rioli.....

 

[CoggaRules]

Number 1 Non football classic would have to be Sandy Roberts when he welcomed to the mic. Lorraine **** instead of Lorraine Dick.

Footy- i think it was Rex who called a towering drop punt, a towering drop ****.

 

[YellowandBlackBlood]

I cant resist the classic Jack Dyer comments:

"He's just a good ordinary player" on Peter Bosustow.

"He just keeps on going where the ball aint!"

And of course:

"He put up his arms like giant testicles and grabbed the mark!!"

I remember he said that on the Channel 7 World Of Sports panel.

Was a classic.

Miss that show.

The O'Toole brothers in the woodchop lol and the bike competition.

At least ch 9 have kept the handball comp going.

Uncle Doug--Paaaattrrra.

 

[SteveoTheTiger]

Brian Taylor on Triple M a few years back around the time that all the Didak & Bikie shootings stuff happened.

"And Didak dodges a bullet". He may have said something after that but i forget.

You have to love the Comettisms, there was a good one this weekend but i forget it now.

 

[westcoastiger]

Rex Hunt commenting on the newly completed southern stand at the MCG.

'Thats a magnificent errection !!!!'

you must have missed the classic Dyerism.....when the subject of weed smoking was brought up on world of sport.

"Have you ever had anything to do with grass Jack? What is that? I only smoke Turf."
Turf was a brand of smokes back in the days.

 

[GOAT LOVER]

Watching the Carlton vs Sydney game today a commentator said

"Lewis Jetta really does inject speed"

I turned to the wife and said "I thought that only came in a tablet form"

I recited that word for word to CamSmith today while at the rugby league game. Classic piece of commentary and one for the ages,
All children should be taught this at school.
