Commentators

[Jukes]

Basil haters are fools who can't appreciate good commentary because they're so blinded by being ABWA's

[RaisyDaisy]

Bruce is the best! Makes me laugh with all of his elongated phrases and even more so because it's just normal for him and he is not trying to be funny at all

Jukes - Basil is a flog and should be abolished. You're just showing your WA love for him  :P

[elephants]

Nah Basil is a crab.

Give me BT any day of the week, he's just so much fun to listen to!

Dwayne Russell and Matt Campbell are the worst.

“Like a cork in the ocean”

One of Dennis Cometti’s most famous lines. It was first delivered after West Coast Eagle Peter Wilson booted an incredible goal in the 1992 grand final.

“Nasty situation. He’s caught between A Rock and a hard place.”

The line came when a player was caught between former North Meloburne player Anthony Rock and the boundary fence.

“It’s like finding fault with Miss Venezuela”

Cometti speaking about Adelaide midfielder Rory Sloane.

“Alan Didak was Stevie J before Stevie J was Stevie J”

On Collingwood player Alan Didak having skills like Geelong’s Steve Johnson.

“Metropolis, kicking to the city end”

Speaking about former West Coast and Fremantle player Daniel Metropolis.

“The guns of Paparone need a bit of work”

Speaking about young Brisbane Lions player Marco Paparone.

“Barlow to Bateman. The Hawks are attacking alphabetically ...’’

On Hawthorn players Kris Barlow and Chance Bateman

“How’s that, a two Carr collision, both with the same rego!”

When Josh Carr wearing jumper number nine for Port Adelaide, bumped his brother Matthew, wearing number nine for Fremantle.

“Parker to Carr … … sounds like a match made in heaven!”

Another play on the Carr name.

“Brent (Guerra) hates losing and that extends to his hair.”

On Hawk Brent Guerra, who did advertisements for The Hair Institute.

SOME LINES NEED NO EXPLANATION

“Scotty Cummings alone in the square, jumping up and down and waving his arms like they’re playing My Sharona”

“Spider had both his legs taken out from under him â€" leaving only the other six to balance on”

“Ling’s running off the ground a little bit gingerly”

“Farmer may have an injury to his calf........hmmm, a farmer with a calf problem.”

“Kevin Sheedy, who was coaching Essendon 14 years before Adelaide was founded. The team, not the city.”

“Collingwood know they’re in trouble, it’s like being in the bathtub with the Loch Ness monster!”

“In for the Cats today, David and Steve Johnson. Who better to patch up a line-up than Johnson & Johnson?”

“It was like a self-saucing pudding. Players just waiting for the whistle”

“Ball in dispute, Lamb, now Yze the meat in the sandwich. Really Lamb should be in the sandwich.”

‘He was like a Bombay train. They were hanging off him in all directions.’

” Hay is bailed up on the boundary line“.

” Cousins runs away from Carrâ€"not the first time we’ve seen that happen this season.” 

When a huge ruckman fell onto a very small player nicknamed Elvis and then slowly picked himself up, Cometti pronounced
“the building has left Elvis’.

A player named Gram had his shorts pulled down in a tackle: “strippoGram” deadpanned Dennis.

"Tonight is umpire appreciation night.... I give it about 30 seconds"

"Liam Anthony's birthday this afternoon... Well I guess it was his birthday this morning as well, anytime after midnight actually."

"The cats are all around him, like a bowl of milk"

"Brown looking for black, but gives it to Greene. It's confusing at home, I know"

"The last 5 scores have been Dogs behinds, pardon the expression"

"Just need Milne to emerge from the shadows, that's where he operates best"

"Eddie Betts could hide in that divot... His shorts couldn't, but he could."

Bruce: "What has Jack Anthony done for Fremantle? Played 3 games last year." Dennis: "Fair to say he's done Jack"

"Riewoldt has the same amount of goals as me at the moment"

"Saints are under pressure like Aaron Sandilands thongs"

[Bill Manspeaker]

the man was brilliant whatever he was commentating

"Just need Milne to emerge from the shadows, that's where he operates best"'

Haha.

Far out.

[Barra13]

Hahaha. That was my favourite too.

Im with ya mate, the blokes a one eyed tool. Usually gets the Showdowns and he flowering drive me nuts. Can't stand him.

[RaisyDaisy]

Makes it somebody else's problem!

Lol that's horrible. Huddo is probably my favourite on Fox, and I love Bruce!

Truth be told I don't mind all of them. Yes some have a few annoying nuances but nothing bad enough that actually annoys me

Healy gets a little tiring for me, but that's probably because he commentates every single eagle game. Wouldn't mind a week off Gerard! :P

and Dermott "must explain everything in fine detail because no one knows anything about football" Brereton

and Sandy Roberts who only knows 10% of the players names and then often forgets he's supposed to be commentating so you get 5-10 seconds of silence.
