For a commentator who half the time sounds like hes talking italian, the other half japanese...the only players name I could understand him calling was Minichello, funnily enough.

Probably because Japanese and Polynesian pronounciation of vowels are very similar. Dont go hating on a guy for pronouncing a guys name correctly (or at least attempting to) or do you really think Brad Takairangi is pronounced like tack-a-ran-gee? btw its not.

Nah I just got tackled hard and played the ball the wrong way.

Rather play the ball the wrong way than be a Warriors forward who takes a dive to milk a penalty (aware Ropati is not a forward and I don't believe he dived- I am referring to the skirts in your forward pack)

:lol:

Like Masoe?

You are aware that holding down in the tackle, stripping the ball, tackling around the head and being inside the 10 can legitimately be penalized in rugby league? Or were you confused by what your "hard men" up front were allowed to get away with against the Warriors a few weeks ago?

Just keep going, this is great material.

Oh you mean how JWH got away with that hit on.. oh wait :-k

You might as well soak it up, because the only difference between our two sides tonight is going to be in our team next year.

Good luck. Let's see how Johnson goes with all the pressure on him. I think it might end up being a little much for him, especially on the back of such a soft forward pack.

This joke has definitely gone too far. I'm scared now.

hmmm... maybe before every warriors game we should post how the Polynesian vowels should be pronounced...

A - AR. Eg - PA is pronounced Par

E - AIR. Eg - PE is pronounced Pair

I - EE. Eg - PI is pronounced Pee

O - ORR. Eg - PO is pronounced Poor

U - OO. Eg - TU is pronounced Too

Try telling that to Matt You-Tie and Brad Tacker-Rangee

So your point is it's a problem if you can't understand the names when they are pronounced correctly? But you can understand them when they're pronounced incorrectly by Aussie commentators?
Yes dont you think its a problem when half the time theyre pronounced incorrectly?

Its like you guys saying all sorts or words wrong all the time, its that silly accent you persist with

Chelly bens ffs...come on!!!

Chelly bens is YOUR accent (if you used the correct terminology in the first place). ffs, get it right. We are "Chully buns".

lol, its funny seeing Cliffhanger lose the plot with nuffiness off the back of Johnson basically destroying yet another set of lazy forwards with brutal footwork. I'm quite happy with Johnson TBH...
