Ray warren

[Guest]

Recruit Thirsty Morrow from ABC

Please no

The sideline eye guy is good though - Richard Svenson?

[Guest]

Oh alright, so because he's a good bloke and stops and says g'day, he should still be calling the game regardless of the fact that he's clearly not the best man for the position anymore.

We're going all the way back to the Braith Anasta threads of the past.

being a good bloke doesn't warrant his position as a commentator, but it should cease the unfair and plain incisive insults being thrown his way by people that would never have met him before.

I think the entire commentary team were pissed yesterday

You're a very naive person if you truthfully believe that approach, here of all places, could or will work.

reading over what I wrote, yes it does sound a lot like what people have said previously about certain players.
but I stand by what I said, calling ray warren a 'poof' because he gets a few names mixed up is a lot different to calling braith anasta a few names over what he did.

He has always hated the Roosters and never fails to have a dig about crowd numbers. And he WAS implying we were over the salary cap. I tweeted Gus about it and hopefully he passed the message on that people weren't happy with his comment.

I don't mind Ray Warren, but his comments were uncalled for.

Warren Boland's the man.

Geese for commentators.


Bring back Moose & Dencowub.

He covers his backside by saying "some have questioned how the Roosters can stay under the cap". He will argue that he didn't suggest it ?

Exactly. But the inference was very clear.

Totally agree . Whether he was implying something or not. Absolutely no reason to mention us being over the cap.
For all those people listening to the coverage, and didn't have a second thought about our cap situation now they will be questioning it thanks to his outburst.
It was a cheap shot.
Isn't he even in the slightest embarrassed knowing Gyngell is such a faithful Roosters supporter and his employer ?

So many just Hate to see us succeed.

The best caller Frank Hyde, "it's long enough, it's high enough, it's straight between the posts" he was a caller, called every play of the game, no second guessing as to what the players were thinking, also Rex Mossop on the line in tennis in, on the line in football is out, he didn't pull any punches, he wasn't a gentleman like Frank Hyde when call but he called the game as it was played.

Rabbit's suffers from verbal diarrhea & brain snaps, Gus well what is there to say

[Burnt Rooster]

Rabs and Hadley are not what they seem, when mics and camera's are around, butter wouldn't melt in their mouths, away from that, they are a pair of pompous arses, so up themselves,.its not funny, what ya see, is not always what ya get

[Juggler]

You guys are getting upset now???

It's been happening for years. They can't even get the calls right for penalties either. Half the time they carry on like one-eyed fans!

Never listened to them when I lived in Sydney, watched the game sound off & listened to the ABC but can't get the radio where I live now & the TV is in the front of the house & Computer at the back so I can't listen to it on there either.
