Memo: Peter "Strauchanie" Hellier

[The Other Coach (TOC)]

"A quick message to everyone that drove here tonight, you better book taxi's for the ride home.... Michael Gardiner is doing the valet parking tonight''


and

"i'd rather go to Carlton, because it seems they don't train very often"

If that was the strength of it, I thought Judds GF's hair was funnier......

 

[Barry Zuckercorn]

can someone please shot him

Mark Williams?

 

[Chewy]

Hellier's red carpet improv was lame except for when he was speaking to Brad Johnson and did the whole "Where's Ryan Griffen? Who's he anyway? Didn't he get an invite to the Brownlow? Strauchanie did.." routine. That was pretty funny.

But not as funny as Bruce "Who'll be taking Charlie home tonight?" McAvaney.
Bring back Bruce! I can't wait for next year's Brownlow and some more McAvaney magic when he gushes all over Chris Judd or Adam Goodes and the Palladium Room is awash with Bruce's semen.

Honestly, what is wrong with people! It was reasonably amusing. I think some people here don’t actually know how to laugh. If you didn’t like it is it the end of the world? It’s the Brownlow, not a state funeral for the country’s once laid back happy go lucky spirit. Are any of the people claiming it wasn’t appropriate the same ones who reckon it’s a pointless umpire’s award?
Good call.

Just because you see quality in the mediocre, doen't mean people with class and taste should...but then your a Pie supporter...says it all really

 

[Khan]

i still think he could actually captain richmond, shows high highly i rate him, and richmond

ohhhh lol original

 

[Brewster_]

Your 15 minutes is up you unfunny ****

Couldn't agree more.

 

[Bretski]

hes a champ, should have his own show

 

[tugga]

I like Strauchany, and I thought his effort last night was pretty good. But really: Reg Reagen>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Strauchany

 

[Jabso]

Pete, Ricky Gervais called, he wants his routine back ...

So Chris Lilley copied Gervais w/We can be heroes? Arrested Development copies The Office's awkward silences? Trailer Park Boys is a trailer park version of The Office?

Succesful shows spawn and influence people, just about everything in TV is influenced by similar shows, this applies to music as well.

 

[footy_rulz]

What are you people on? He's funny as!!! Best comedian out besides Dave Hughes.

Basically, yeah. Watch that Hamish bloke from the radio. Has The Office on a loop in his house, I am sure. Chris Lilley was kidding himself it was that blatent. Influencing is one thing, basically re-producing mannerisms and speech is another.

Sound's like you rate yourself pretty highly..

 

[The Other Coach (TOC)]

...at least I don't beat up on my fellow supporters....You guys will NEVER live that one down.....the clouds parted and the truth was finally revealed...like feeding time at the Zoo....

 

[WA ROO]

Would be better if the red carpet interviews were done at the end of the night

 

[SMOO]

Is this guy humourous? Hell no and neither is his character. Appeals to the lowest forms. See why he is a pies supporter. And all thesecallers "trade judd for stachnie" who think they are funny and original. You are not on both counts. Cringeworthy maaterial

 

[Harvey Leadpipe]

Not funny, not witty, not entertaining. Just an annoyance. Australian comedians (if that's what you call them), are pretty much woeful across the board.

[AndSmithMustScore]

yeah it was funny but i thought it was unprofessional for brownlow night

Considering some of the decisions the umpires make when handing out their votes week in week out the brownlow is already one BIG ****ing joke.

 

[Father Jack]

i laughed when i orginally heard it, but when i went back and examined the bits i thought were funny, i found that i was wrong to laugh. what i think is funny is that this thread is more funny and longer than the routine that it is about.

everyone has ripped off everyone. the office is just a modern day blackadder. and i can say that coz i have never watched the office, all i know is that if something is funny, well, they must have ripped off blackadder

 

[AndSmithMustScore]

Yeah and Dud and Pete and Smith and Jones called Gervais up they want their routines backs.

You obviously have pride in your club. You can't even show everyone who you support!

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I reckon he is awesome, some people should lighten up, when was this forum taken over by emo's?

 

[Black Panther]

Hellier (and Rove) = Comedy for the bogan masses

 

[Digs]

...he hit the spot with about the last 4 of his jokes.



before that was crap....

Agreed. Was definitely struggling and I felt bad for him but those last four were crackers...
