A cringeworthy performance by him today. I estimate he called the wrong player at least ten times with the worst being when he called Hogan 'Holmes'.

Seriously, Fox.

He also Called Harmes Oliver..

however I prefer him to Drew "[censored]" morphett!!

You'll get the reference after watching this video!

    I like the idea of a Sandy story page. Any funny Sandy stories or urban myths that could be attributed to the man, please leave here. 

    I remember sitting in the members stand at VFL Park back in the late 80's.I sat below the commentary booth fascinated that Sandy Roberts would chain smoke throughout the whole game while commentating at the same time.

    I was too young to tell back then but it would explain a few things.

    Poor Sandy couldn't call a cab properly.

    The answer is to actually buy a membership and turn up the game whenever we can so that we don't have to put up with the inept commentary.

    Helps the club and works on keeping the blood pressure down.

    I'm not even lying but part of the reason I went yesterday was so I didn't have to watch Fox Footy. I really hate Etihad.

    The answer is actually to remove people from employment position's when they no longer contribute to the business.

    I spend a small fortune on memberships and live 900km away so you're answer doesn't wash with me.

    I help the club, I help Foxtel, God help Sandy!

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
