Tim Gossage Commentary

[SNIPER_]

What a shocker that bloke is!!! Very annoying voice and he's such a bias prick.
Perth's version of McChin I think?

Goose age we call him

Yeah I must say, his call was terrible. Openly barracking at some stages and so one-eyed in regard to the umpiring - notably the throw call against Phil Matera - it was ridiculous.

Ladies and Gentleman that why you turn down your TV and tune in to 5AA to listen to the broadcast

If you did you would have found out that James Fantasia was in Perth keeping an eye on a son of one of the past Carlton players.

I cannot remeber his name. Maybe someone else can help. The old man was the guess on 5AA Commentary team. His name is Peter surname starts with B but it escapes me ATM.

Not sure of the spellling Stiffy, but his name is Peter Busustow. Was a high flyer from the West who played for Carlton in the late 70's and 80's. Very good player who could be a match winer on his day. If his lad is as good as him he's worth drafting.

$hit, didn't realise the 5AA Guys travelled to perth.. well next time i know what i'll do...

 

[macca23]

Actually the correct spelling is Bosustow.

I managed to dig up this post from somewhere or other back in May 2003

Brent Bosustow is the son of Carlton great Peter. Brent is a robust half forward or midfielder who has shown some good signs with South's Colts this season. The most exciting prospects in the SF Colts are Brent Hall (198cm Ruckman/Forward), Matt Moody (All Australian U/18's last year) & Jacob Surjan (Pacy On Baller).

They always have their commentators travel for interstate games. Pretty good value. Beats, McGuire, Goggage and Co. anyday.

Thats the one macca23. Apparently Brisbane, Collingwood and a couple of others have spoken to him.

Peter, sounded as if he liked the idea of his kid in Adelaide. He made a point that it would be great if Brent was around the likes of Carey, Roo, Johncock, Mcleod and Co. If he is any good then go for it but I would prefer a ruckman and a key forward.

 

[Voice of Reason]

I think he's an annoying prick too and I'm an Eagles supporter.

Well played today - too good for us.

 

[Leigh Roy]

Bosustow is one of the best names in Aussie Rules.

I know bugger all about the Blue but the name really sounds great.

You aren't into breaking into cars are you by any chance Stiffy?

No why??????

You are not suggesting I stole James Fantasia's laptop from his Toyota Camry?!?!?!

I cannot take cradit for this one. Peter Bosustow was a guess special comments man for the 5AA team for todays game and he said that James has spoken to his son and is out watching the game today. peter did say that he thought it would be good for the young fella to be surrounded by the likes of Carey, roo, McLeod etc.

 

[Leigh Roy]

I'm joking, remember.

The best thing reading the tiser site was John**** saying he wanted to be one of the premier midfielders. Oooooooooh baby.

Yeah he wants to be a V8, preferably a UTE.

"It can't be a throw if you don't take possession of it"

Now thats a classic!!!!!!

 

[Nige_Bix]

He makes Jason Bennett sound good!

I though he was very biased especially when WC got a couple of quick goals in the last 1/4 - thankfully Roo's goal shut him up!!

 

[lozstar]

god that guy was a s-h-o-c-k-e-r!
i dunno who's worse, him or eddie!

 

[Nige_Bix]

Eddie is ok - as long as he doesn't call a Collingwood game - then he changes.

 

[SNIPER_]

Can't wait to hear Eddie's silence in the last quarter when the Crows are beating the Wobbles by 7 goals (I hope)

 

[Milkman]

Gossage doesn't actually barrack for West Coast. Don't blame us

Yes, but if I hear Bennett say "dodge a bullet" one more time... well I'd like to fire off a bullet he couldn't dodge.

Channel 10 and Fox commentators are woeful.

It almost puts me off watching the games when they're commentating.

I listened to the 5AA broadcast, and enjoyed Peter B's comments. He sounded a bit like Rick Davies, but better

 

[maccas_no1]

I like fox and Ch 10 commentators,at least you get an unbiased commentary not like ch 9 I hate listening to ch 9 commentary

10 minutes left after the arsey midget goaled to cut the margin to 5 goals:

"There's STILL TIME for the Eagles!! But they've gotta get it down that end!!"

Hmmm...
