Cody weightman doing a hammy would be good
Wow, it has to be said, the Bombers have been deplorable in the second half. 4 behinds.....go Lions next week! Smash these pups.
Make that 5 behinds. Shocking.
Bombers were second to the ball at the majority of contests .
Didn't realize that it was 2004 when the Injectors last won a final. The only other club that hasn't won a final in that time is Gold Coast.
On the Fairypups, Titus nails it again:
"While the Bombers couldn’t kick goals at all after halftime, the umpires were functioning beautifully up forward for the Doggies, booting five."

As always, Titus makes some enjoyable observations - this part in particular made me chuckle:
"As for the Giants, they got lucky in this one, but they unearthed some new talent in the form of Tim Toronto (that’s what BT called him so I assume it’s a new player).
Remember when getting players names right was a basic requirement of commentating?
Aren’t we fortunate that correct names have been replaced by annoying theatrics, blokey mateship and talking over Daisy Pearce because she’s making too much sense and making everyone else look bad?"
So, so true!
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
Jesus, how long has Taranto been around? What, four, five seasons by now. Good enough to win a club B & F. Taylor lost me when he
started making fun of players names. Some of these guys just don't have the decency to retire gracefully and go off and get a job as a
used car salesman or whatever.
I do like Daisy as a commentator. Especially her ability to provide insight into tactics, that I, and probably her fellow commentators, are unaware of.
In regards to Taylor and Taranto, I suspect that he's mispronouncing it, because he thinks it's funny. Much like the way he seems to think that "Llllooooyyydddd!" is somehow funny. Whereas most of the audience probably think, that if something isn't funny at first, then it doesn't get any funnier after 100 or 200 repeats.
