Brian Taylor???

What do you recon the politics are like in that commentary team to me it seems Richo spends a lot of time holding back

Ling, Taylor and Darcy say what ever they want and it's all bullshizenhouser

He did his knee in June 2007 playing for Haileybury College.
Thanks, it's just the way Darcy talks about it, he makes it sound like it was last year and he seems to mention it every time he talks about Vickery.

Given Darcy's usual lack of knowledge with facts and figures I'm surprised he would know about it though :o

It's funny you bring that up. All of them get fed their facts and figures by stats guys sitting in the corner of their comms box each game. The main commentators arent that smart.

He managed to get that one even before the game started tonight. ::)
Amused when he praised Selwood for bending at the knees to et a free! "It's all you have to do"!

If I was Richo I would ignore Taylor too - you just cannot reason with idiots!

LOL, you're wasting your time, trying to argue with an idiot.

An idiot will drag you down to their level, and then proceed to beat you with experience.......

Perhaps Richo subscribes to the same theory!
 
Most annoying bloke to listen to along with basil Zemplis. Both have one huge issue. They don't know the players name
God help us next year when Taylor is calling Friday night games

Really loved BT's call last night. Wound right up at the end there. Great enthusiasm for the game.

I'd prefer Bruce or Huddo anytime over this muppet.

Yes he had no idea who our young guns were - he kept getting them wrong

As much I enjoy having Richo be part of the call team, I still had to turn the volume off. The missus came in and asked what had gone wrong? Nothing I said, it is much better now!

Absolute joke of a commentator, one of the worst our there! And I quote "it took two of them to drag the great man down!" and the list goes on and on and on and on...

*shudders*
 
Brian Taylor is clueless. Surely he's only there for the comedy aspect, where he's the subject of the ridicule.

Basil Zempilas was complaining that a player should've got a free for holding the ball the other week when the defender chose to bump rather than tackle and the ball spilt free. Clearly being a television commentator you would have a bit of a clue on the rules of the game...

Basil's call of fame was against Collingwood last year "Lloyd Lloyd .......Lennon"
