be careful about niggling him about his language skills, they are going to turn him into a folk hero and then he'll be there calling for decades.

It's so wearisome seeing him retain this job. I'm sorry but he's just ****ing shit at it. The minimum requirement for a commentator is to be able to string two syllables together without tripping over your own tongue and he doesn't even meet that standard most of the time.
I'd say it's baffling how he still has the job, but we all know the answer as to why.

Bulldogs v Cats, old mate said that one of the team's ball movement was surgeon like. So as in surgical, Jobes?
Some of the needles jobey boy used are starting to hit home.

"Short...such power off just two steps.."
After Short has just run 60m from Defence without breaking stride to get the Handball Receive and kick the goal.
Dude, he'd literally just taken like 50 steps.

"Jakey Stringer... he is continuously able to do the unconventional."
Really awkward way of saying "he continually does the unconventional"
Really awkward way of saying "he continually does the unconventional"
If he does it continuously... doesn't it actually become conventional?

Well, yes... Good point!
Although I was mainly nitpicking about the definition of continuous (meaning: uninterrupted, ceaseless) as opposed to what he really meant to say (continual: frequently occurring at regular intervals.)
If you're able to do something, then it goes without saying that you're continuously able to do something
And that doesn't mean you ever actually do it.
Just keep it simple FFS and say he continually does something.
Knuckleheaded footy commentators are always overreaching with their vocabulary.

He just said "good maturation from Essendon". Who Da frk knows but I think he meant to say "good maturity from Essendon.

What happened to being a coffee bitch in New York?

No he was actually referring to the Port Adelaide player, Jacob Surjan I believe.
To think, he could be around for another 30 years ruining watching footy on tv. i can’t think of a finer example of when less is more.
Under Ross Lyon “St Kilda is the hardest team to score against against”
Jobe sounds pretty excited for this game, his mouth is going faster than his brain.
A low bar admittedly.

On St Kilda: "They've gotta win the game". Well, it is an elimination final after all, Jobe.
omg lol when did he say this
Sometime in the second quarter. "A sounding board and instigator for this St Kilda team out of the middle"
Makes 0 sense lol.
Jobe was half a syllable away from crediting a player with “seven score infringements”, but unfortunately realised where he was going and corrected himself. Damn.
