Last nights commentary

[GeorgeGrljusich]

Can you get an AA selection when you're playing in the VFL??

 

[Keys]

Well some Victorians still think the AFL is the VFL, so yeah maybe.

Think you might have missed my disclaimer down the bottom of my post though.

 

[GeorgeGrljusich]

Ahh. The old lemon chiffon trick

Nicnat is an exciting talent but he also has a lot of work to do in areas of his game - John Worsfold said as much during the 3 quarter time interview.

It's one thing for Eagles fans to get hardons over, as tbh we haven't had a lot to get excited about the last couple of years, but Bruce was horrible last night. He's infatuation with certain players is ridiculous and it actually gets in the way of enjoying the football of those players.

Called Rioli delicious last year and I'm sure I heard him call Naitanui and exotic animal last night. WTF?

At least Dennis seemed to acknowledge in the post game wrap that they went OTT.

Hopefully the hype around Nicnat will settle down sooner rather than later. Maybe Morabito can play a blinder in his 1st game and everyone will be raving about him instead.

Oh and as for Peake - he'll be an AA wingman this year, it's the ex-Freo boy way.

Pretty sure Peake will be one to break that trend though.

Let me just highlight that for you

Seaby for the AA Ruck bench spot - behind you know who! (and it starts with Sandi)

Hmmm..........................

I watched an Essendon game. We play them in round 2 you know!

Sorry but that's no excuse in my book!
Unless you're Nostradamus and know in advance that they are going to suffer a humiliating loss then there is no reason to waste a friday night in summer watching an eagles game.

 

[GeorgeGrljusich]

Hmmm..........................

It's true. I nearly choked on my beer.
Beastiality is still illegal..right?

 

[E Shed]

How many times have you seen someone 200cm and 100kg win the ruck knock, rove it then dash away from a bunch of midfielders and a few minutes later kick a small forwards goal that LeCras would have been proud of roving off the pack?
I understand this thread is about Bruce's over the top fawning commentary but trying to downplay the performance of the player than evoked it is a it rich even if he is from the slime.

Manalive i hope so............

What would have prompted him to say that with the backlash of insult last year over his little delicious statement.

 

[daveymak]

We can see, we aint stupid!!!

well georgegrljusich cant, and is - according to his original post.

 

[ballanFYNE]

^^^^^^^^

*cough*BIAS*cough*

 

[daveymak]

bless you

What?
I gave NicNak a pat on the back in my OP.
He is a great talent.
Just not the second coming of Christ as some seem to think.
And it's MISTER Grljusich, thank you very much.

 

[ballanFYNE]

bless you

Did you watch the game last night????

 

[Reveler]

meh, its just the same treatment Judd, Ablett, Brown, Reiwoldt, Rioli, Buddy etc.. get

 

[ballanFYNE]

Put together?

 

[kp junior]

I watched an Essendon game. We play them in round 2 you know!

Essendon look BAD. They are going to miss Lloyd, Lucas, Lovett and McPhee I think. Paying $14 for the spoon, get on it.

We might even beat them at the dome for once.

On topic, Natanui was freaking amazing, and brings stuff to the game we haven't seen before. So get used to the commentators jizzing in their pants, there will be more of it.

Worse still was Cometti's little gem after the game that Freo will live to regret moving Peake on to St Kilda. Seemed to think that Peake could be the difference for them in 2010. He delivered that assessment dead pan, despite the many times I can recall him audibly groaning on witnessing a typical Peake forward 50 entry (off the shin, helicoptering etc. etc.).

Absolutely ridiculous comment from Cometti. I can only see it as a positive difference for us in 2010.

 

[free at last]

bruce's comment on nic nat! "you just can't take your eyes off him"
it"s just to sound appealling to all the westcoast homo supporters.

To right, whats that about. was that a cheap shot at us.

 

[silverscope]

Anyone would look good in St.Kilda's side... Shit Let's not forget Fletcher was good.... With Kerr, Judd and Cousins around him.


We always knew that with the trade. He wasn't fitting in/didn't fit out style. But he'll be able to run around packs and get the loose ball all he likes at St.Kilda because we know when the hard ball is there to be won he is no where in sight.

Good riddance, He won't be AA but wouldn't be suprised if he did OK, espically if players like Hayes, Dal Santo, Montagna are all feeding the ball out to him.

Of course it was.
Cometti is always throwing barbs our way.
Sadly, Dennis is quickly becoming a parody of himself.

The only comment i have heard him say that is even barley mutaul to us was: Peter Bell, he is my wifes favourite player.


and also about him saying you can;t take your eyes off him, Him and Bruce on the same panel, it's not looking, dare i say it, Centimeter-perfect.

It had to be or he is not watching enough Fremantle games. He was a quick player but he also ran in circles, couldn't keep his feet, kicked helicopters etc etc... There is no way he could make the difference in WAFL let alone in AFL.
