" Ablett again, creating opporutnities, 25 meters out, 10 meters out, and boots it!!"

" Good strong grab, wonderful grab. Ablett, wasting no time, goes inside Hamilton, kicks his second goal!! Magic!!"

 

[Duck05]

First one was Peter Landy - absolutely love it though!

"They'll also be playing for those who have gone before them. Great Geelong men. True believers. Men who have bled, fought, and committed before them.

They have worn the blows. And carried the scars. But never, ever stopped giving to this club.

They live again today, through the deeds and actions of those who hit the 'G in their famous, old jumper."

One of my favourites, from the Channel 10 Grand Final opener.

Two of my favourites from the Grand Final:

"Ooh and again there's a turnover, and Ablett, the little genius, drives it home!"

"But the smother came from King. Corey, no escape there, but was able to get it to Wojcinski. Ablett now, well done by Geelong! Kelly, Selwood, sold it beautifully! And sets up Bartel, not a big goalkicker, but he's got one to go with that Brownlow!"

Working beautifully SJ.

Actually the 3AW call of that one is one of the great calls, I heard it on the news when Grybas passed away, he said something like:

"It's grand larceny, it's highway robbery, it's the greatest thieving effort you'd ever see"

and in the background, Hunt was yelling:

"No! No! No! No!"

I have that downloaded on my other computer. Dont no why. Still gives me shivers when I listen to it.

Another one from 2007 with Nathan to Gary to Nathan who kicks a goal:
'Oh its like they're in the backyard!'

How was the Eagles game. I forget who said it but it was about Geelongs play in general

"It's like we are watching the harlem Globetrotters play a game!"

"Someone just mail him (Ablett) the Brownlow now" followed by "They may as well mail something else (Meaning the flag) as well"

 

[BoNeZ]

I loved the comment about ablett
"must have been a professional pick pocket in his last life"

 

[cats2rise]

Not a commentator, but a newspaper headline after we spanked Richmond last year.

'Super-Cats-Are-Fantastic, Tigers-Are-Atrocious'
Obviously a play on words of supercajafraja.. whatever.

I laughed when I read that one.

 

[SJ]

Haha, I have kept that section.

 

[GFCats07]

"They might as well cancel the Brownlow night and someone just mail him (Ablett) the Brownlow by express post down to Geelong" followed by "They may as well mail something else (Meaning the flag) as well"

edited for accuracy.

fantastic work SJ

Do you have that on the net? Or on tape at home?

Watching the youtube video still gives me goose bumps

 

[chapmanmagic35]

Thanks, SJ. Great stuff, isn't it? I remember seeing bits of it at KP the day after the Granny when they were playing it on the screens.

Another favourite:

Grybas: "Good tackling Port. Ling picks it up, got by two, got the handball to Rooke, it's brilliant stuff, can Rooke finish?"

Shaw: "It's over. Might as well bring her in Rex".

Or you can always go the Channel 10 version:

"Ooo, Ling, he was almost dead there. He's done well. Rooke's a chance. From inside 50, slapsy maxxy!"

 

[Mr Sensitive]

this is a non-geelong one from a couple of weeks ago in the st.kilda-freo game. Someone mentioned how both teams have a nasty habit of fading out in the last quarter and Cometti came up with the pearler: "this last quarter could be a great monument to energy conservation"

i thought it was gold

I love the 3AW commentary post siren, brilliant work by Grybas, unfortunately the last match he ever called.

 

[fpm84]

Never understood the "slapsy Maxie" from the grand final. Am I missing something?

This was an umpire's call picked up on his mic, but it's still funny:

"Your own man tackled you, it's not my fault".

That was in the PF when Byrnes tackled Stokes only 20m from goal, released to only have a collingwood player take his place. Too late, free was awarded.

What? You can be pinged for holding even if a team-mate gets you? Why can't we tackle our own say... 20m in front of our goals each week then?

Um....because it would go to the opposition?
