[QUOTE="GeneralduPreez, post: 669111, member: 70369"] Yup, you got that down to the T. Glad you know what I'm talking about. Got to love it. Hugh not the same when Habana's not playing. Commentators usually don't work on my nerves, except when its an Ausie commentator that dissagree with a good call from the ref that is against an Ausie team. Heineken is right though. They do crack you up with their funny comments, albeit not always related to the game. Its like listening to aliens observing a game of rugby for the first time and trying to make sense of it. They highlight all the strange/funny things about rugby people that know rugby take for granted. There will always be that one guy though: ERROL TOBIAS. He's an Afrikaans commentator in South Africa, so you Northerners probably won't know who I'm talking about. But man, he just grinds my gears. During threatening moments, when everyone tenses up in expectation of something amazing happening, he will start with his "back in the days" stories. He sounds like a cricket commentator. Those that can lull you to sleep during boring periods in test matches. [/QUOTE]
