More from Rex;
"if every player had red hair like Vautin it would be much easier to call the game"
"Randall's run into a hornet's nest of Magpies"
"I've had it with these nude bathers forcing their genitalia down our throats"

Fantastic stuff Testarossa - literally split my sides laughing at that contribution.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Or these gems from England - "football's football, otherwise it would'nt be football"
or "the race course is as flat as a billiard ball"
or "she comes from a tennis family - her father was a dentist."

Those are hysterical! To bend the topic slightly, some from my neighbour:

"I'll never forget what's-her-name"

"I don't mean to be condescending, which means to talk down to someone, but..."

And now, a page from the true book of wisdom here in the intellectual capital of the world we call the United States,

The recepie for calling a race by the late Joe Brown -
"It's a visual operation, you've got to be able to see, recognise and say within a split second. Multiply this by the number of horses in the race and there's your recepie."

good one clancy (N) joking mate

Not forgetting the classic cricket call from Brian Johnson, West Indies v England late '70's'. Said with as straight a face as possible-
"The bowler's Holding, the batsman's Willy".

Some very funny quotes from AFL commentator Dennis Cometti:

"Scotty Cummings alone in the goal square . jumping up and down and waving his arms like they're playing My Sharona"

After Shaun McManus is crunched in a tackle "Shaun goes back to collect the ball , a free kick and several teeth"

"Farmer may have an injury to his calf......hmmm , a farmer with a calf problem"

"Spider (Peter Everitt) had both his legs taken out from under him , leaving only the other six to balance on"

"Barlow to Bateman , the Hawks are attacking alphabetically"

"The goal square's full of bears , looks like we got ourselves a convoy"

On Corey McKernans pathetic early season form "He's like a long jumper who can't reach the sand"

Tony Liberatore emerges from a pack with blood pouring from his head "Libba went into the pack optimistically and came out misty optically"

Brereton "Why do you think he went side on to take the mark?"
Dennis "He was probably trying to impress the Russian judge"

As a comedian he makes a pretty good AFL commentator.
