How many pints did he down?

Jacob Weitering had a fairly long interview on 10 news tonight. Main points were:

• Definitely playing Sunday unless he pulls up sore after training on Friday.
• Was pretty sore for 3 - 4 days afterwards and had to sleep sitting up in a chair.
• Trained hard last week and was close but had a bit of soreness.
• Lost 4kgs after the injury but has now nearly put it all back on.
• Is very comfortable now in his shoulder and thinks that he is ready to go.

Just heard him on SEN.
He'd make a good regular on 360 next year. Make it worth watching once a week. Used to watch it for Sellers.

Sellers used to shit me a bit, but then I started listening to Grandstand AFL as I'm working weekends at present. He's effusive when a side deserves it, and gives a whack with a bit of relish when they don't. He's also one to allow a match to set its own narrative instead of going into one with a story already written, something that I find is very frequently done on the TV coverage (whether fox or Ch.7).

He also gives the impression that he at least watches every game, as opposed to some of the senior citizens in footy circles at present that provide a rent a quote service based on their former positions within the game.

Impromptu of nothing, Mick Malthouse is also on Grandstand...

Spot on Geth.

Good opportunity to ask. Who is Sellers?

Seriously?
Mark Maclure

 

[Bletch]

Seriously?
Mark Maclure

Supposedly "Sellers" was given to Maclure by Percy Jones, who thought Maclure was a bit like Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther movies (played by Peter Sellers). Can't have been a looks thing, must have been mannerisms I guess.

I'm amazed you hadn't heard that before.

 

[RPCB]

I wouldn’t have asked if I wasn’t serious.

I probably have, a while ago.

and is just awful.........

 

[Gethelred]

I genuinely think Grandstand know they have a wacky factor and they lean into it a bit. Nathan Burke is a weird dude, and getting Kim Hughes to do the cricket last summer was inside one of the most curious experiences I've had listening to the cricket.

having said that i reckon Marc Murphy has been surprisingly good in the recently-retired-special-comments role. Never thought much of his public speaking as captain but it looks like he's really improved post-career.

He and Deledio are both pretty good. Seem to be decent mates, too.

Agree. Sellers is an excellent read of the game, always has been. Harsh, but fair.

'Impromptu' though? An ironic mal-apropos-ism?

plenty of people who follow carlton aren't aware of maclure's nickname - I only 'got it' myself a few years back - it's just so bloody irrelevant to him these days I struggle to see how it has stuck for so long..........
