Dwayne Russell

[Roger Mellie 3,991]

My favourite was during the first qtr "This contest could go one of two ways."

Straight to the 'Commentary Gems' thread with that one!

[DemonOX 8,791]

Dwayne is hard to listen to at the best of times, his love of Port Adelaide and Geelong is equal only to his hatred of Melbourne.

Today, you could hear the tears rolling down his cheeks and the croak in his voice with every Melbourne goal got louder and louder. After Garlett kicked one of his many goals he proclaimed "dagger to the heart!" He was of course referring to himself.

Well Dwayne, to show there are no hard feelings despite all this I will be sending you a small gift in the mail.

Thats a funny lookin "up yours" finger Client!

Not sure he will get it though.

Dwayne is no good. That's agreed. In fact he's toxic.

But Sandy Roberts, who is normally inoffensive even if he cannot differentiate between Gawn and Spencer, got up my nose with his repeated under playing of Watts' efforts.

Watts' handpass sets up a goal - Roberts says "he can't get through".

Watts sends a smart centering kick to the top of the goal square and Neal-Bullen goals - Roberts calls it as Watts missing.

It was repeated and it was as if he was determined to maintain a negative story about a player because that's what he thinks "the story" is about Watts. Just like, when SJ received a soft 50m penalty for the Cats' first goal Sandy and others start salivating about SJ kicking eight! (Good luck with that.)

As I am still guttered by the loss to the Sainters, I was not going to watch the Geelong game.

Dam you Demonlanders as I now have to watch the game so I can also mock a guy called Dwanye the Pain!

As Melbourne FC haters should all be mocked and humiliated. Its our civic duty.

I think the biggedt stuff up was on Channel Nine last night saying that the Cats beat Melbourne in Corey Enrights 3ooth game. Did we lose the protest ???

The amount of Ex Footballers turned "expert" commentators is alarming.

Queens Birthday Match:

Example 1.

Players walking to position -

Tim Watson "Jetta going to Elliot, that's surprising. I thought Garlett would have."

Example 2

Brayshaw avoids Varcoe and kicks a goal on none preferred.

Nick Maxwell "Varcoe needs to be better there, he should have known Brayshaw was a left footer"

'On the couch' has been ruined by Brown and Dunstall. The viewer wants to be educated with strong & controversial views. Rather than "back in my day Jase"

In saying that, I'm looking forward to watching them all tonight.

Dunstall is great. Don't mind Brown either. The rest are hopeless though.

[pineapple dee 2,892]

Jonathan Brown is setting a dangerous precedent of being constructive, informed, even handed and even encouraging of the dees. Surely that's not permissible.

[Gorgoroth 12,924]

Brown is good game day, but on the couch and pre games etc, he is very wooden and over thinks things.

Game day he just speaks about what is going on.

[Return to Glory 8,412]

I've hated figjam for a considerable time so it's comforting to know I'm not alone. The thing about Dwayne is you just know he'd be a prize fockhead outside of his job.

He probably said Garland.

The Maxwell one sounds very Maxwell-like though. Against the Doggies when Fitzpatrick played a blinder he said "The MCC are chanting Fitzgerald's name. Fitzy Fitzy"

[Curry & Beer 5,444]

3 minutes in to the second half

"cut off by Enright! It's shaping as a nice story for Enright, just playing their way back in, with him being one of the stars, he's been good again today..although...he's just given it away to Howe"

the disappointed fall in Dwayne's voice matched the sigh of the crowd
