Sick of people begining a question with "I put it to you". NOT NECESSARY.

But you left out the rolled-gold, number one (drum roll please)......... Stevie J !
Is this guy a rapper or something ? Robert Walls is the worst offender, because he uses the term in a normal conversation. He doesn't even have to get worked up about it.
There is also one that thankfully has died down just a tad. Is everyone aware that Kieren Jack's old man was a rugby league legend
Oh really?But you left out the rolled-gold, number one (drum roll please)......... Stevie J !

You mean Jake (the push up) King?
"He's on the wrong side for a left footer" (every time Buddy lines up).... BUT
"He's gets the ball to bend back blah blah blah" (as if no-one had realised)

Probably been mentioned before, but oh my god does Bruce love:

What craft? They're footballers for God Sake not Brain Surgeons!

KB, no matter how soft the kick at goal is will also say:
And he RAMS it home!
Which comes out as:
And he WRAMS it howme!

"He Kicks a Rainmaker!!!!"

100% correct. This saying went right through the game like a cancer a few years back to the point where the idiots wouldn't have any idea what it actually meant.
It's f..ing obvious.
My second most hated term is the "power forward". What crap, what's wrong with the old "key forward". Every smart arse has to try to drag something from another game and we can do without the basketball references thanks.
Does he ever! He must have said it about 10 times at least during Friday night's game.
Sick to death of "shot on goal" - it's not quite as prevalent now, but still overused.
Other dishonourable mentions that come to mind:
"He goes inboard" -
is that even a word?The perpetual quasi-corporate speak: "structures" of course has been mentioned; "going forward"; "accountable/accountability" etc.

These probably have already been mentioned:
"Structures".
"Unbelievable". Luke Darcy is a serial offender here. Almost everything is unbelievable to him. Even JB, who I love as a caller, says it too much. He said that for Collingwood to finish 1st after winning the Grand Final last year was "unbelievable"...what?

A whole game regardless who is playing the Eagles this year its all about what the opisition has to do to get into the game everything that the other team is special until wait for it wait for it wait hold on....................

"Roosts" during a kick for goal: I can't work out where this comes from, or what it's supposed to mean.

Ha! Spot On.
My bugbear is how, after a fair margin opens up between the teams, almost always the special comments guy decides the losing team must "lift their workrate" and especially "take the game on"
such a lazy, generic assessment
15 pages and nobody has mentioned Brucey's latest, greatest abomination:
"....loosey..." when Team A have an unmarked player to kick to
