Great start, but I'm yet to see DR use the same terms over and over in multiple sports.

I'd love to see him commentate NBL - there's so much scope for a Cal/CJ Bruton rantfest.

Please tell me that John Casey has not tried to roll out the “player x uses his non-preferred left foot” or “player X was worried out of the marking contest”

Clearly what makes a good commentator is very subjective. What one person enjoys another doesnt. I quite like Dwayne Russels commentary and David Schwarz is also becomming one of my favorites. Tim Watson though I find to be as weak as piss.

Other than Dennis Commetti and Clinton Grybas there really is not a lot to pick from.

Thankfully though we all have different tastes.

Dwayne Russell should get some new materials. Swear to God, everytime he covers the Crows game he always says "Brent Reilly, the player selected by Adelaide before Nick Dal Santo".

He does it with everyone.

Can't remember which game it was, but he mentioned a player taken at pick #60-odd having a shot for goal.

"They could've taken Cameron Bruce..." etc.

Drawing a rather long bow when you get that deep into a draft - at least with the first rounders you're dealing with choices of cream.

"Gets the job done" has been the most popular. I'd love Case to slip in a "gets the user friendly roll"

Love the Caseyisum

When someone kicks a goal in the NAB cup next year he can go “kicks a goal from the land of plenty”


Please, please, please NBL get Clinton Grybus back for the NBL and keep John Casey on the Tennis.

SHAW was a fecking DISGRACE today.
You know someone hates you when they cheer for CARLTON.........and they were once captain of COLLINGWOOD

ya, even his own can't stand him half the time so what do you expect from a average player & coach.... average commentator.

 

[James23]

^ average coach?? thats bein a bit nice isnt it he was shite

 

[Red Crow]

There must be a market for a Dwayne Russell Bingo/drinking game card similar to the John Casey one by now?

"That's as good as it gets!"
"He sends it home!"
"Russell Ebert"
"The Port Adelaide Football Club"
"Father/Son rule"

Anymore to add?

"Gets himself a consolation prize"
"Straight over the goal umpires hat!"


Seriously he says "thats as good as it gets" two or three times a match! How special can these moments be?

Is that "special" as in a McAvaney "S P E C I A L"????
