Now I'm the first to admit I'm no Rugby fan!!...
But tonight is EASILY the best, most exciting game of Yawnion I have EVER seen - EVER!! (Which isn't saying THAT muc, but anyway....)
But even so - i was fair dinkum bouncing round my lpungeroom for the last 10mins of regular time,a nd the 20 mins of extra time...Just cos it's Australia...and the game was close...
But deadset - Gordon Bray - does he have a pulse!?! He makes Richi Benaud sound like a drama queen!!
Such a dull, continuous MONOTONE!!...He only got out of a canter about halfway thru the second half of extra time - what a friggin YAWN!!!
And as for 'Colour commentary' well Phil Kearns may have been the best Rugby captain ever, and the most experienced etc and know what he's talking about...but he added about as much 'colour' to the commentary as a piece of white chalk!!
Now I pnly watched 2 games start 2 finish - the semi v NZ and this game...but even last week these guys got more excited...in SUCH a close, and thrilling game - what the hell was wrong with them tonight!?
I mean Bruse McAvaney is ALWAYS as boring as batsh*t - I'm used to that - and as an anchorman, I think I could get more GENUINE passion out of a brick wall...but the commentating tonight, I was really stunned at just HOW bland it all was!??!
Anyone feel the same, or was it just me??? :?
