If you have to smash red bull and caffeine to call the footy, then you're calling the wrong sport. WWE is that way -->

I seriously doubt they would have him.If you have to smash red bull and caffeine to call the footy, then you're calling the wrong sport. WWE is that way -->
Not me. I would even take the entire Ch7 commentary team before der-wayne, and they have 4 of the worst commentators I've ever heard. How bad must they be when Brayshaw is probably their best caller.I hate to say it, but I would have rather dwayno calling the richmond game than listen to eddie screaming the whole 2nd half.
He's an arseh*le and shocking caller , all about his own voiceNot me. I would even take the entire Ch7 commentary team before der-wayne, and they have 4 of the worst commentators I've ever heard. How bad must they be when Brayshaw is probably their best caller.
And yet they're still not as bad as der-wayne.
Eddie might be the only one I'd put behind Dwayne. Dwayne's more like an annoying child having too much fun in public. Eddie is a boorish knob who is incapable of elevating the game even the slightest bit, no matter how much he yells.I hate to say it, but I would have rather dwayno calling the richmond game than listen to eddie screaming the whole 2nd half.
Dwayne may need help in the box if Port go much further ahead. His book of nicknames and cliches is going to need a new volume soon after unleashing "Gray Nomad" when Robbie took a mark at the top of the 50.
See that would be clever if Gray was at his third club or something.Dwayne may need help in the box if Port go much further ahead. His book of nicknames and cliches is going to need a new volume soon after unleashing "Gray Nomad" when Robbie took a mark at the top of the 50.
Shouting on air instead of talking seems to be a thing among Australian media presenters in a pathetic and infuriating attempt to add excitement or humour.I was out and about the other day and while I was waiting for Mixcloud to kick in I got to listen to about 30 seconds of this dick on SEN, he even yells when he takes talkback callers.
MENTALLO IS FROM PITTSBURGH AND WANTS TO TALK ABOUT THE BLUES.
Stop shouting you DICKHEAD.
Him and JB ARE THE WORSTShouting on air instead of talking seems to be a thing among Australian media presenters in a pathetic and infuriating attempt to add excitement or humour.
Yep. I think Luke Darcy is right up there with them.Him and JB ARE THE WORST
Yes what a big headed rat he is as wellYep. I think Luke Darcy is right up there with them.
Or down there which is more accurate.
Clearly nobody with any clout at Ch7 (or Foxtel) ever listens to these guys. Certainly nobody with half an idea as to what a professional and competent caller should sound like.Yes what a big headed rat he is as well

It's also spread to several of our country's - for want of a better word - "comedians" and TV presenters. These morons seem to think that shouting makes it funnier (or just funny).Let’s call it the Triple M ‘GET AROUND HIM!!!’ effect.
I've never known a commentator of any sport, let alone just AFL, who manages to pick the wrong adjective for the action they're describing as often as Dwayne Russell does.
Case in point: Jeremy Cameron kicked a fairly regulation snap on the weekend. The way it spun wasn't perfect off the boot but it was a normal snap. The angle wasn't that tight and the degree of difficulty wasn't that extreme.
Russell excitedly referred to it as a "crazy goal".
Wtf.
There was literally nothing "crazy" about it. What the hell are you talking about Dwayne?
I genuinely don't understand how he hasn't got better at picking the right word to match the action on screen. How many years has he been doing this now? It's incredible that he's maintained the same level of incompetence for so long.
