GAME DAY - Tiges v Dogs

The on-ground host or whatever she is called went through our entire team name by name before the game, like they would in a basketball game.

She has neither the football knowledge or inspirational gravitas to perform such a duty so it was absolutely excruciating to listen to.

Not that fussed by that. Didn’t like the umpires coming out to the theme from ‘Succession’. Are they trying to imply they are power hungry and corrupt?

On a less significant topic, have I missed it previously or is that excruciating introduction of the team pre-game new?

Corporate boxes are looking better and better every time those match host imbeciles open their mouths.

One of the 'imbeciles' is Sarah Hosking, if that makes a difference.

I exclusively listen to 80s thrash metal before during and after games should try that.
 
Bit immature to be calling pre game announcers just trying to do their job "imbeciles" :unsure:

Perhaps it's not their fault, but the higher ups.

I don't know what Succession is but pleased my call for the umpires to have a song has been acted on so quickly!

I did notice that, I've seen people less out of their depth on Bondi Rescue.

Fair point, they may just be acting like cheer squad members for the sake of the role.

Yeah I get that TM, whether it's the poxy drums or whatever anyone else does. I've just never noticed them go through the entire list by name and number before. Was long and horrible.

Haven't you been to a live game the last couple of years?
 
Wow, only 4 coaches votes out of a possible 30. Dimma must have been mighty pissed.
