Bruce McAvaney

Possibly true, but what they really should do is find a way to have less BT.

This. The dumbest thing to do is have BT and JB calling the same game. Both fancy themselves as larrikins but you need to balance that with a Bruce nerd type.

I much prefer JB to BT though. His call of Dusty's 4th in the GF was a cracker...."aaaahhh *smile* off!"

And JB also gave us the immortal ‘BANG! Sydney Stack just sat him down!’

'Drown 'em in your honey' would have to be the most cringe worthy line of commentary in recent history

"From little things, big things grow"
Is up there too. Sounds like he's calling a super funds ad.

Granland is good. Bennet ok but lacks a bit of polish. Grybas taken too soon.

Few other great overseas sports callers - Bob Costas, Peter Allis (departed), Phil Ligget (big ego though), Martin Tyler, Brian Moore (departed), Tony Cozier, Al Michaels.

Football needs someone like Tyler or Ligget. Know all there is to know and just commentate on what is unfolding. Enough of the bozos and blokes and women-blokes.

Simon Hill on the other football code is very good.

Gold ....ahhh the days of real TV and real comedy when life was good and people weren't a bunch of pissants.

Loved the Late Show they did some good stuff late 80's early 90's.

Well said brother. Great times when over the top PC wasn’t a thing and comedy was pure and brilliant.

I think his choice isn't men or women. Its women or Cyril.

Or black caviar or Winx

I think you'll fine BT actually was the one who said we'd find it hard pegging back the cats lead with the short qtrs.

It was Bruce who said “their gonna be hard to catch” when spudgun Hawkins put them 22 points up.

 

[Scoop]

Peter Drury & Mike Breen the best in the world.

Drury in particular rarely misses a moment.

Peak Bruce was world class, he will be missed.

Dam.I might have to watch the whole game again.
