    Re: WB Game Day V Melbourne R19 2021

    Just watching the replay now, and only a few minutes in and BT is really on my nerves.

    Talking about Jacko's 5K possessions to date, and he emphasised how all the others before him were tagged and how upset Diesel would be about being eclipsed.

    Yet back in the day you and your team mates could clip the taggers properly to make them stop, but team defence wasn't a thing and it was see ball get ball at stoppages by and large.

    Just be happy for us you fat *!*!*!*!.
    Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.

    Yeah I remember that and thought it was pretty poor commentary. I mean the guys just made a pretty huge accomplishment and the first thing you do is try to diminish it? Weird.
    I should leave it alone but you're not right

    Whenever you are comparing players from different eras you are really setting yourself up for a failure. I loved the footy from 'my era' (basically the 1990's) and will always hold that as the gold standard - but there is amazing stuff going on right now and the best teams from 'my era' would be bottom of the ladder if a time capsule dropped them off to play games in AFL 2021. Of course, the 'well, they would play differently, train differently and ultimately be successful' argument is always thrown up (and it might very well be true) but ultimately we will never ever know for sure.

    I am pretty happy to celebrate the efforts of Jacko and all of our other amazing players today - equally I think back to the performances and (particularly) head over the ball in the face of genuine physical danger from the 'olden days' and marvel at those players.

    BT is commentary by personality these days. My daughter (23) loves him. Me (49) hates him. My 2x boys (19 + 14) - well, I'm just happy every time they watch the footy for long enough (more than a quarter) to be annoyed by the commentators...the pull of YouTube is generally WAY to much for those two to watch an entire game of footy (both play).
    What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

    It's pretty clear we need to start a WOOF channel with a number of us rotating on the couch calling games live.
