Brett Kirk's cringeworthy intro.

[Bluelegs]

Anyone got an explanation?

EDIT: Fixed with the new layout.

 

[HARKER]

Cross pollination of Scientology and Buddhism is all I have.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Yeah ... should have worn a helmet when he played.

 

[MushroomRocket]

being under those packs must have given him the vocabulary of muhammad ali

that was painful

 

[Gimp]

Anyone got an explanation?

He's a footballer.

 

[Marlin01]

He's a unique individual.

 

[threeleggedgoat]

he's very passionate about the game

 

[Danair]

Palinesque!

 

[Prem87]

Cringed throughout, cringed even more when he said "authentic"...

^^^Good article.

....and the point of all this Kirk crap??

 

[ABitWoofy]

kinda feel sorry for the bloke that he was made to read out this self indulgent dribble. Whoever wrote it (looking at you Hamish) should be shown the door, but considering its ch 7 he'll probably be given a raise for this 'masterpiece'

 

[Flameboy]

Looked like he was trying to rev up the viewing audience but added an unintentional gay flavour to it.

 

[EFC 1871]

It was weird.

But that's OK, because just like me, HE CARES.

 

[Nostradumbass]

What a tool...

 

[Stamos]

Surely he was on drugs

 

[BarneyBent]

Old news, but it was extremely awkward. WTF's idea was it? Seriously?

 

[Dazb86]

It's amazing this guy was captain. Seems the only place he'd be able to give a rev up is a yoga class.

 

[LocalBomber]

What a knob! I felt uncomfortable watching it.

 

[manboob]

I'd say the AFL drug testers were asleep at the wheel between 2004-07. That's evidence of long term drug abuse right there.

 

[mattf83]

Cringe worthy from Kirky, i hope he didn't write it

 

[ashs35]

Cocaine's a hell of a drug.

From all I've previously heard from "Kirky" I reckon he wrote it.

But RompingWins doesn't write his stuff or anyone elses for that matter.

Perhaps he's taken Captain Kirk under his wing.

Also, I've watched this about 15 times already, but only just noticed that Baz introduces him as "Sydney Swans co-captain".

Only a couple of years late on that one Baz...
