Bruce is a rhetorical, retrograde relic. Theres no point in comparing his number of questions to others cos he has a mortgage on them. Maybe it has something to do with the talent on 7 team with Commetti, McAvaney, Watson and KIrk on boundary. You'll find that one of them is the stats man...

Northern Union : great avatar name for a RU fan, sorry that should read RL fan ! Just to counterpoint your notion, from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_league you get ; Rugby league football takes its name from the bodies that split to create a new form of rugby football, distinct from...

Thats a gem, the Timothy Dexter wiki article. From the great man himself.......(It had an inscription) "I am the first in the East, the first in the West, and the greatest philosopher in the Western World........" Robbo has to be up there with Socrates and Lao Tzu :rolleyes:

Made a point of listening carefully to a Ch 7 broadcast on weekend. Q1 only three rhetorical questions Q2 either 7 or 8 of same Q3 [as his excitemnet grows, the floodgates open] by this stage I was watching the game :p

Well done GWS Board member for addressing an NRL rant. Such rants (usually done by GGould against Qld ie inter-codal) are exactly why I support AFLs expansion into GWS. The Swans have probably been seen as a 'pimple on the bum' only, but now with two teams in Sydney, and particularly GWS, the...

When I first realised this year that Robbo was going to be on air not once but four times a week, I belched, sweated and passed wind. I got emotional. I looked up at the lights, swung my head and thought "thats someone's opinion, they have a right to it" and then gazed at the TV , my head...

I wonder AH if Bruce's slipping into theatrics has anything to do with .......... Denise's weird humour. Has Commetti corrupted the delicious commentator? WE can only hope and pray that an AFL game reaches such sublime heights as Makybe Diva's threepeat, forcing Brucey into abject and...

Yes, the Derminator ad is just a tad assinine, but I wonder what the fems feel about it :p Could have been worse - full frontal :D Keep up the cheeky viewpoints Derm

Have been impressed by Dermies clear and precise elucidation of footie strategy. He doesn't get drawn into too much commentator dribble and keeps his eyes on the field. His left fieldedness is refreshing, eg re Dangerfield "he's being too generous? with most of his possessions being contested...

Does Lucy Bruce ask the most rhetorical questions in a agame of any commentator ? That gets on my nerves. His job is to obseve and commentate, not secure comments on his observations. Maybe the cure is for his fellow commentators just to leave him hanging, .... no answer, then he'll ask another...

...........ever dreamed of a Tassie team entering the AFL, based at both Hobart and Launceston? :confused:

Re: Verbal Faux Paus Must have been one of those goal shots that brushed the inside of the posts. :D

Re: Verbal Faux Paus Leigh Colbert mentioned that as fans were leaving the ground, there might be a MAX Exodus ....

Grates me to the bone hearing umps calling players by nicknames. Implies bias and familiarity. These umps must have big bbqs after every game and invite all the players. :rolleyes:

Heard that too. Sideliner Colbert rang in to say something like ; he'd been contacted by the Gunston family, who were threatening to cancel the commentators GF passes. Good call Colby, cos they called him Jack after that! :thumbsu:

Thanks Interceptor. Ok Colby, get to the costume/party dress places this week and get yourself some '60s rocker gear. Trip to the hairdressers for a cowlick, brylcream. A gold suit and a gold tooth would do nicely too. :p

Watched the Crows v Port match. One of the commentators mentioned about Max Exodus. Another commentator asked if was the same one that used to play in a '60s band. Priceless! Pickering and Jakovich were covering, with Cambell ? Maybe Colbert was the sideliner. Who was responsible for the...

Picture this ; you're sitting in between the legendary Lethal and Dennis Commetti doing special commentary. You're there replacing another legend in Bruce McAvaney. Not only did Harley hold his own, but after a while I particularly enjoyed the camaradie between the three of them. Commetti...

Jake Niall on the Real Footy site is the best I've read. Caroline Wilson gets some good angles going too.

Feerits, adding to your spelling knowledge, we'll have to throw in syntax and grammar........ what hope has the ordinary BF poster got? :p Good research though. I believe the San Chelda had something to do with the Vikings word "good springs" of water, which all got corrupted to a shield...

Sorry guys, my first time on this Board, but so incensed last week with his 20 odd "at the minute"s in the derby, that I launched that particular thread without even checking as to whether there was already a thread on Glen. Its comforting to know you're not the only one writhing in pain at his...

Watched the whole game, and guess what, not one "At the minute". I even heard Glen mention a 'fortuitous' and an 'argumental'. Brilliant come-back, with Gerard Healy introducing Glen and Leigh Colbert as "fine young ambassadors of the game"- which of course they are! So why did I have to raise...

So FE, on a footy forum, you're saying we must all spell correctly? That would just about ground the forum to a halt!:thumbsd: Forgive my WASP-ishness in the spelling of Glen's name, but I bet he gets that often, just like my google search compounded the incorrect spelling. Now you've...

I usually get to see the Sunday arvo games (shiftwork) which have been the Perth games this year. I follow Freo anyway. What gets up my nose is the number of times the local commentator says "At the minute". I always thought it was "at the moment" anyway. After the 20th time of hearing "at...
