And that was my big mistake as I proceeded to cop shit from him the rest of the night!

For example...
Theres two types of footy players son, those that play for East Perth, and those that want to.

I wonder what guys like JK Watts think about the current state of affairs.......

Quite funny i thought, that even Cometti wasant a huge fan! Always thought for reasoned debate and general commmentating Cometti first daylight second...AUSTRALIA wide

In the end they hated each other GG trained up DC at the ABC but DC went big time and GG was left in his wake GG got the shits on over that.

Apart from that nobody had the sporting knowledge of history that GG had and nobody has had it since, there would not be a single person left in the WA media with his historic knowledge on WAFL Football.

I always enjoyed George talking about the old WAFL days (speially being from Vic and not knowing all that much about the wafl). Great story teller of the old days.

Therein lies the problem 58, when presenters think the show is about THEM and not the subject (sport)

Spot on unk, I've been hanging out for footy shows on the radio and have a listen into them - until enough is enough. We ever going to get a Saturday morning sports show that is not dominated by egos and Hagdorn misinfo?
