Roast 2014 Comical commentary thread

[Argy]

1 minute left in the game. 3 pts the margin.

"Next goal wins, don't you think?"

In the next breath he says... "If there is one."

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

In the next breath he says... "If there is one."

Surprised he managed to end that without posing a question, aren't you?

 

[Hodgepodge]

I used to yell sarcastically in Bruce Macaveny-isms at my opponents during indoor soccer.

"Cleeever"

"Delicious!"

and so on

VFL commentary on ABC. this afternoon:

Commentator A: "Good crowd at Etihad last night"

Commentator B: "if you like Essendon supporters"

The ABC commentators are hilarious, When the parachute guy flew over I thought they were going to piss their pants laughing.
Doesn't have to be serious the whole time!

Anything that comes out of the mouth of that tit 'hutchy'. Caroline Wilson may be questionable, but I would love it if she, or anyone on footy classified for that matter knocked him out.

I'd happily knock the flog out ...

 

[Off The Couch]

In defence of hutchy (going to vomit) he did put his friendship with pickers ahead of breaking the news about where buddy was going - got to give a gutter journalist like him a tiny bit of credit for that

"It's my 20th Wedding Anniversary today!"

Bruce Macavaney. You tit. Nothing else to talk about from the game that was being played, was there? Freo are just having one of those nights, weren't they?

 

[Hodginator]

@lenphil29: L.Darcy asks Breust if being able to represent the Big V is something he'd find important. Breust replies "Um.. I'm from NSW" #preparation

 

[wallyt99]

Listening to ABC before the game.... "I think it must hurt more when you lose a game by 3 deliberate kicks... Missed opportunities, when you should have won."...... "I think that's what happened on Grand Final Day... The better team did not win the game. That must hurt"



I was like WTF?

 

[Ned Ryerson]

During the best team end to end goal of all time Bruce ruined it with this pearler when Cyril kicks it to Breust.

'And he caresses it down someone's throat' followed it up with a weird satisfied moan after the goal. Granted - so did I and most of us I'm sure after witnessing the incredible - but after that first comment it was all a bit creepy.

 

[brew]

From the finals last year Gerard Healy is 1-4 with the Hawks

Keep up the good work Gerard!

Tipped Hawthorn in the paper.... but changed his mind before the game to Freo

1-5 for Gerard!

Keep on rolling Gerard!

Yes, that's the early clubhouse leader for mine. Just so many things wrong on so many levels.

wallyt99 who said that rubbish? If we weren't the better team that day I'd like at least half a dozen reasons why.

I don't know the names and to be fair turned it off soon after... But I did some audio / picture research and if I had to guess I would say Dan Lonergan.

Ah, yes. Good old Dan. The bitterness of the Footscray supporter shines through.

And that was David Parkin too! He did say he was tipping Freo to put the mockers on em (0 from 3 this year in the tipping), so will give him that.

Referring to the GF like that though ... it was unnecessary. I almost ran off the road.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

I didn''t hear this one but someone posted it in another thread.

Apparently Voss said, "Hawkins is becoming the Michael Jordan of the AFL".

Has it become compulsory for commentators to talk shit these days?

 

[Hodgepodge]

Darcy was going on about Geelong' s defensive structures and how they never leave space in their defensive 50. Then someone finds Jamie Elliott all by himself. Darcy rationalises that the kick was a fluke.

I'd be incredibly surprised if it wasn't!

Heard that too, and then automatically thought Bruce was doing this:



Dwayne got caught up so much in the Adelaide v Sydney game, he called it the game of the round. I guess the Grand Final rematch counts for nothing these days.

 

[Off The Couch]

But Dwayne also thought Adelaide were still in with a chance when they were 5 goals down at the 20 minute mark of the last quarter - the guy is an out and out tool

Ha! I didn't hear this but when I saw it posted here I thought it might have been Parkin. He was so anti-Hawthorn all of last year, I couldn't believe it. The worst was when half way through the GWS match he said we were going to lose it!!! I am really starting to question his credentials as a footy 'expert' (notwithstanding his coaching record).

I think Bruce was taking the piss with that whole passage.
If you go back an replay it from the wing it goes

- hope it stays in
- it does
- keep going
- oohh yeah
- caress it down someone's throat
- moan

Bruce does enjoy taking the piss out of his critics
I don't mind him, he doesn't let bias get in the way, and is entertaining
He actually adds something to the telecast

Every time I think of commentators, I'm reminded of the saying, "Please engage brain before putting mouth in gear".

Whereas I appreciate they are not paid to sit there and say nothing (although at times it would be great), shouldn't they at least give SOME thought to it, rather than just blurt it out?
