What's with Chris McDermott and "catching"?

[Foxtrot]

Did anyone else notice how he refers to a mark as a "catch"?

Is this a South Aussie thing like "banana" / "check side"? Or did he just have one eye on the game at Bloemfontein?

It's a Chris McDermott thing, he is a pillick.

it isn't only Mcdermott that does it, i have heard lots of commentators refering to marks as catches for a few years now, and i really dont like it.
