Brett Finch's musings would make regular appearances here if he had played AFL. Last night on Bill and Boz, Finch said ''vunerable'' instead of ''vulnerable''.

A disproportionate number of so called "learned" people think the L is silent . Really bugs me.

 

[Mr Ripper]

You hear "vunerable" more often than vulnerable. "Vonerable" also gets a fair run (hello Lynchy).

Pretty sure i heard BT call Tom Hafey Tom 'Hofey'.

Just watching the U/18 gf, tuned in at the start of the 2nd quarter and heard these two pearlers within a few minutes of each other.

Dal Santo : Talking about Dean Anderson's son, Noah. He's a competer.

Dickson : Will Kelly, he didn't put himself in a position where he was out beaten, but it was just a great kick to put Williams...…………...

I didn't mind JB today calling the preliminary final the prelimination final.

He corrected himself but on googling it, it seems like some local leagues actually do use the term 'prelimination' rather than 'preliminary'. I can only find the term being used 4 times on BigFooty, so it's definitely a rare one.

I googled 'competer' and the 2nd meaning listed in the urban dictionary wasn't really fit to post on here so I just left it.

Paddy Dangerfield on SEN this morning came out with: "You've gotta win it to be in it!"

Crash Craddock said Bill Slater's possible suspension from the NRL GF would catasclysmic instead of cataclysmic.

Does Jack Higgins saying ''I'd like to thank the Richmond Football Club and stuff like that'' at last night's Brownlow medal count as a boganism?

Lol, a worse choice of words she could not have made. Extremely crowded, or a lot of people, yes! Der.

 

[Cleavy]

I like Emily Angwin, maybe a little too much!

Gary Ablett is getting a bit long in the teeth....guess who?















Yeah you got it
Spud f###### Frawley

 

[Truckosaurus]

I'm just impressed he knows the correct plural. Well done, Spud!

Ryder Cup commentator..."It's uphill all the way to the top, then downhill..."

 

[Procrastinator35]

Ryder Cup commentator..."It's uphill all the way to the top, then downhill..."

Probably got confused with the Dunhill cup.

Tell me Shannon Hurn didn't say "Fank you."

Wasn't really listening properly...

Now that the footy seasons are over, I'l reveal my favourite boganism of the year. It's from rugby league. On the Sunday night Matty Johns show, the panel were interviewing North Queensland Cowboys coach Paul Green. Green was coach of their 2015 premiership. Brett Finch asked Paul Green, ''was there a moment where yous thought yous would win the premiership?''

Reminds of those Blue Haven pool's TV ad with Jeff Fenech...

"Yous too can have a Blue Haven pool"

Sounds like something Andy Maher would say.

Danny Frawley (the idiots pin up) on Saturday: "It's good to see the draft is finally working and making the competition more even at long last"

Deathly silence in the box as everyone else knew the draft first commenced over 30 years ago

Pretty sure Sam McClure let loose a "salary crap" during today's show.

When i hear or see the words 'salary cap', i often think back to Mick Molloy saying 'calorie sap' on the front bar this year.

'Positiveness', 'creativeness', 'aggressiveness', etc. What's wrong with the language we already have?
