Dermott, Hawks v Saints.

"He's just over clubbed by foot."

Now I know what he means but I haven't heard those two words as a combination since the late 70s / early 80s when we used it to tease another kid who wasn't as athletic as the rest of us or who was a bit unco in certain tasks.

'What, have you got a clubbed foot or something?'

Booooooo!!

Ross is a ripper, is there a place he hasn't been or a person he hasn't met?

He's got an anecdote for almost every situation.

He comes across as a bit pompous but also a lot of fun to me.

Complete low class rich bogan. He even thinks Rhyming slang is cool and loves horse racing. Used to be a lawyer, I would be checking his credentials just quietly.

This reminds me: Al Pacino's rev-up address near the end of Any Given Sunday is medium-brow, overrated bogan bollocks. The way the footy yobbos gush about is schtoopit! :grinv1: "Yeah! Wow! Ya feel like running through walls when ya hear it!" The Triple M guys mentioned it yet again last week.

Chef's kiss, Josh Gabelich. Glad he's reporting from the post match press conferences:

Bevo confirms hot Dog's hamstring, Scott says stars returning

It was bad news on the injury front for the Western Bulldogs but the opposite for Geelong
www.afl.com.au www.afl.com.au

After starting last year 5-4 before winning the final 16 games of the season to go all the way, Scott believes the Cats are well placed to make another deep charge this September, despite starting the season 6-6.

"It is a sound enough platform in my opinion, but I would have say the same if we had of lost.

Collective shudder at our place as Hayden is announced as one of the commentators. Does the bloke ever STFU?? :confounded:
 
A female newsreader when talking about the Manchester City v Inter Milan Champions League final pronounced Milan as My-Lan.

I can forgive her for not knowing much about sport but how could you not know how to pronounce Milan properly, it's not an obscure little Italian town.
 
A little tautology from Daniel Rich: "I'm at the twilight end of my career"

Jimmy Buckley: "rivalryship"
