"Under my/their belt" :lol:

Rhys Wesser added to that once and said "Underneath my belt"... I've wondered how much stuff can actually fit under that belt, because some people say it alot.

Already been mentioned, but "out on their feet" really doesn't make sense to me. To actually be playing a game of footy, you need to use your feet anyway, so you'd have to be out on your feet when you run onto the field.

I hate when they use players first names like they know them personally and add the Y
for example Reecy Wesser is a favourite of Daleys.

I also loathe when they call the 7 a 'little halfback'. Some of these guys are big enough to play in the frontrow!

The one that's been p!ssing me off the last couple of seasons is the "for mine" comment.

"That's a try...for mine"
"He's in front of the kicker...for mine"
etc.

Do you know what Second phase play is?:?

How can you have a problem with that? Thats like having a problem with someone calling it a hit-up?

Its annoying because Daley repeating it.

Its a bit like Freeman, everytime its the last tackle, Freeman always says "the halfback gotta take control here". We know that Freeman, thats the job of a halfback.

"Outfit"

Laurie Daley uses the word outfit to describe a team or a club 10 times more than he'll see team or club.

"They're a Uuuuuge outfit this Warriors outfit"

But second phase play is an actual play!

"the halfback gotta take control here" is a little bit different from Daley saying "the second phase play is confusing the defense"

Freeman's favourite pet play is "take it two wide to the edge of the ruck".

No matter what the game situation is

No wonder the Kiwis struggled under him.
