Nepotism is the only explanation for Jobe’s place in a commentary box.

Jobe on Grindr:
grind away the whole night
grind away the whole night
Can anyone translate or even better transcribe the soliloquy he gave just before half time?
It was pure frontier jibberish.
Edit: CaptchaProofBot's post above was the start of it.

it's taxing in the sense to be thinking all the time !!!
I reckon he's used the word "outnumber" at least three times tonight as a noun. As in "Dixon has to deal with the outnumber".
I've checked every dictionary I own and I'm willing to be corrected here but pretty sure "outnumber" is a verb.

He even stumbled over the word and took a second bite at it but STILL got it wrong.

Who the hell knows, he may actually think discretion is the correct word there. Bloke has the IQ of a brick.
He's the worst in a long line of ex-player hires who either have nothing to say or can't physically say anything.
After Jones kicked his goal he started a ramble about how impressive he’s been playing as a small forward since he was brought in to cover Butters injury. Jones has been playing as a defender all year til the last quarter of tonight’s game when he was thrown forward cause he was having a mare. Jobe could not have been more wrong if he tried.
I thought it couldn’t get worse than Silvagni on Ten but Jobe takes the cake. Unlistenable.
I wasn't sure because haven't watched many Port games but something didn't add up when I heard Jobe mention him being impressive playing the small forward role but they also just said it was his first AFL goal -
yeah you're not impressing as a small forward if it's taken 5 games to score your first goal
Jobe seems like a nice bloke, and if his manager had any sense of occasion he should encourage his 'Jobeisms', a la Dyer'ereisms. Or maybe that's already in play and he's trolling us all.
Jesus Christ. There have been some truly awful 'special comments' people over the years. Tony Shaw, Glen Jacovic, Mark Ricciuto, etc. but this air head manages to be comfortably worse than all of them. Literally awkward to listen to.

Ricciuto is pretty bad, all he says is stuff like "the games hot boys" lol
He's very bad. Jobe still manages to make him seem listenable/ok.
There was another good one last night where he said "they've passed the gauntlet" or something similar. The expression is "thrown down the gauntlet".
I also like when another commentator feeds a line out to Jobe because he hasn't said anything for a while, but it's just dead silent so they have to ask again, but this time specifically asking Jobe a question, and his answer is always something in depth like "yep".

I like Jobes special comments. He’s very passionate about the game and he reads it well.
