This is why you get "great use of the body, Hawkins/Dusty/Buddy" after they've outmarked an opponent by shoving them in the back.

I don't remember, something about the ground hosting concerts?
I also recall Dwayne saying something about heading home disappointed on Saturday night as reference to the bad game. Dropping himself in that they called the game in studio.
Paying millions for TV rights and they don't even bother to travel to the grounds, it's a slap in the face for us consumers who pay the subscription fees who want the best product for their money.
They banged on and admitted they were calling games during covid etc, they were doing it years before covid.
Your wish is his command. The Shake And Bake is on.

I generally don't think he's that bad, but there's definitely some irritating habits. He's the king of trying to con the viewer that the game is still up for grabs after a couple if junk time goals to the team that's obviously going to lose, but he took it to the next level today with Koschitzke lining up for a set shot and he goes the patented "And NOW... for three in a row to the Hawks!!" Dwayne Russell routine. The margin was like 85 points with four minutes to go at the time.
It’s deafening!!!!
Your calling from a studio in Melbourne dickhead stop trying to sell it you are there.

I actually liked 'miles Bergman, icebergman' then I hated myself
His worst call was somehow implying that the SPP holding the ball goal was somehow 50-50.
Started the game with an early “SPP WITH A DIY”.

Powell-pepper kicked the ball out on the full last night, “AND ITS LANDED ON THE LINE”…..as the ball bounces right next to the fence. Seriously that’s essentially lying and no one questions it or says anything about it
Dwayne isn't the only one but is there some unwritten rule of broadcasting that anyone named Charlie must always be referred to by their first name?
What's wrong with referring to players by their surnames? Buddy should really be the only exception and even then...*
*unless you bring back Rex Hunt

I just watched his "pre-game workout routine" that Fox put on Facebook last year.
2 x sandwiches, 2 x Coke, 2 x Red Bull, 1 x Long Black Coffee, 1 x Twirl, 1 x Caramello Koala.
All to watch a game in front of a TV.

sounds like a heart-attack waiting to happen
I'd be calling the game from a mobile phone on the dunny if that was my "pre-game workout routine"
