what is the most annoying phrase in the AFL?

[Footy_Fan2007]

Further to this, why the **** do some clubs get their full name on the ladder, scores during the game etc. Its always Collingwood V Geelong Cats. We know theyre the ****n Cats stop wasting space on the screen

Wondered this myself. Not a fan

Absolute first world problem but always wondered why half the teams get full names and others don’t

Clubs nominate what they want to be called. It’s their branding.

Geelong do not call themselves Geelong Football Club anywhere because about a decade ago some marketing consultant told them GFC had negative connotations because of the Global Financial Crisis. True story.

Hence they asked to be called “Geelong Cats”.

If I hear 'pickle juice' one more time...

 

[Punchy Bassett]

"Outside five!" "Stand!"

 

[GetDimmaBack]

Not a particulary reflective one

And by that, you mean...what, exactly?

 

[Pistol Night]

"Outside five!" "Stand!"

Do you still hate Nicks? Seems a very strong message you are sending?

Still has a lot to do to convince me.

"we'll wrap our arms around him"

I'm waiting for the day a player says
"we'll wrap our legs around him"

I'm waiting for the day a player says
"we'll wrap our legs around him"

“We’ll wrap our arms around him and make sure we get low enough to not draw any attention from the MRO in the attempt of support”

'Move it on" before play on. Just whistle and say "play on". Unnecessary.

I hate how 'Pressure' now covers things like poor execution, fumbling and lack of awareness.

 

[Smoooothy]

If I hear someone say team x are versing team y or words similar to that, I'll go postal

Can't be arsed reading thru the whole thread but anything Dwayne Russel pulls out
'off the carpet', ' fans in the house'

Basically 99% of Dwaynes vocabulary is applicable to this thread

 

[Cold Ghost]

"Chisler" annoys me to tears. Is it a stab pass, chip kick, short pass?
It's the same amount of syllables as those three, so what's the point?

Recently, one of the Kayo clowns has adopted "Big Llwooyd" for Meek, with a subtle but similar twist on the delivery.

 

[Erakor]

Anyone with a shot bogan haircut being referred to as a ‘character’

 

[Professor Knowall]

“It’s coming back”, when the shot on goal is, in fact, missing by a metre or more - and sometimes even drifting further away. JB is the prime culprit on this

Not annoying, but I've noticed Aussie pundits like to use nicknames to describe their fellow pundits and players. And that nickname has a nickname. And sometimes those nicknames will have a nickname and thus, I'd be better off learning players' nicknames than actual names.
