I recall their commentary on the Winter Olympics one year, particularly the gymnastics. I could go on about some of their descriptions on certain techniques and floor repertoire but it may venture into the R18+ category. Much of it was hilarious.

    Winter Olympics...I think. You're testing my memory. Regardless, they were covering the Gymnastics. "Battered sav" was one of the terms for the gymnasts performances.

    Yes, and the figure skating... lots of "flute" and "sloop" references. And who could forget their summer olympics presentation with Fatso the fat arsed wombat and all of their grand final calls (NRL and AFL) with Lionel Rose's "I Thank You" substituting for the national anthem.

    Great list of the nicknames they gave to players here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_and_HG%27s_State_of_Origin_commentary

    Sorry, I just don't recall seeing the gymnastics at the Winter Olympics.

    I think in the summer olumpics gymnastics, the "hello boys" manoeuvre was often performed...

    Yes, the 'torn hamstring' is one of the signature moves in winter gymnastics, seriously HT !

    T'was the summer Olympics, their commentary on the Greco-Roman Wrestling had me in stitches.

    Yes "Hello Boys" & "Battered Sav" saw light of day during the Sydney 2000 Olympics during "the Dream" best TV ever!! "don't forget to dream Roy" fatso should be revived as a national icon. Remember that African swimmer who took about half an hour to finish?? But he did it. Just Gold humour!

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
