Rabs is well past it, his knowledge of the game is below par, he just rambles most of the time, calls the wrong players and can't pronounce any non anglo name correctly

Yes, Dane Gagai. His name isn't gay guy and it isn't gag eye. It's actually pronounced gargai.

Think yourselves lucky.... You could have to put up with the clowns that commentate Super League, Eddie and Stevo.

I used to think Eddie and Stevo were funny but after listening to about 3 games they get plenty old, plenty fast. They barely commentate on the action other than making (mainly obvious) suggestions for the referee, coach and players. You learn NOTHING from them and thats bad cause the game needs exposure in the UK. For all the irritating elements to Rabs at least he just calls the play and lets Gus, Sterlo, Joey et al explain the contextual elements which is usually helpful.

I can handle Rabs a lot better than I can handle Gus...

In last year SOO Game 1, Inglis caught a cross field kick on his own tryline and brought the ball out about 10m before being tackled.
Gus: How good is that from GI; he is thinking to himself 'my team needs me, we are under the pump, I have to get this ball before anyone else and get us out of here'

Complete twat.

I've got the "Dragons Essentials" DVD. There are a couple of games on it from the 1990s.

It's funny listening to Gus and Rabs back then when they were actually normal merkins.

His best one ever was when willie Manu was playing for the tigers and had dyed a long part of his hair bright blonde....Raba kept saying he must have a piece of straw stuck in his hair...GOLD!! but over the last few years I have come to appreciate ray warren...golden voice and a real treasure of the game.

Round 17 2012 South Sydney Rabbitohs vs Penrith Panthers @ ANZ Stadium

"Here's Merritt and uh EVERINGHAM, ANDREW EVERINGHAM HAS SCORED!"

Turns out Dylan Farrell caught an bomb and flicked it back to Nathan Peats to score...

His haircut looks like a pineapple. If his barber was a sheep shearer I think you would fire him.

Hair fashion tips from a geriatric. I couldn't believe I was listening to a pair of old squares telling the world how bad player's hair was. FMD.

"Matty Bowen gives it to his brother brenton", used to get corrected by someone else int he box that they are cousins every time he would say this when brenton was a regular on the wing for us (matty would hand it off to him on the kick returns pretty often)

'Scott Tronc takes another hit up"

"Stop poking me Gus or you'll go out the window", can't remember how long ago that one was

Ray Warren describing a Newcastle forward taking a hit up.

That's one thing he's right about though.

I've said it one hundred times, islanders shouldn't be allowed to have hair given the crap they do with it (for the record I don't think half the white population shouldn't be allowed skin given this horrendous tattoo epidemic).

Sterlo: there it is, green boots up in the air. We've seen that a few times this weekend, feet over the line but on the defending player. What do you think Rabs?
Rabs: I think they're teal
