Baggy

I will join your Gusher loving club

Russ, it's not Baggys and he is only a member at large, to be a member one must have reached and passed puberty, I believe that rules you out.

The Gusher group will go to war with the George Hook group at half time

Do we have to stay in "character"?

I usually manage the odd cry of "he's gat no paice!" whenever Tommy makes a scintillating break against Munster but have difficulty sustaining it.

I love listening to Gusher even if I ,m not Irish or Northern Irish as well. The truth is the most loved are not commentators who are flawless but those with charisma despite or maybe because of mistakes they make and funny quotes. In Poland we had Jan Ciszewski who was a legend and commonly loved ( football games mostly) despite he sometimes used to say nonsense or fall from euphoria to despair and again .
But I dislike Staurt Barnes as he changes his opinion on players and teams depending who is actually winning though I appreciate his expertise.

The SKY guys in general leave me cold and by and large I can't tell one from the other. No discernible style to enjoy, just generally bland competence.

This guy has "potential" Baggy. Bland "competence" indeed!

I found that hilarious good to see even the best muck it up sometimes

"This is Byron McGuigan, got to be careful I don't call him Barry McGuigan"

A pale attempt at a Gusher from Sky's fake Gusher

You have to have merchandise..

In that case Russ, as a dual member it will be convenient for me to stand where I am & simply beat myself to a bloody pulp, claiming victory for both sets of fans. Don't you love it when life unexpectedly works out

Must give myself a good slap before I go out for a bit of practice. Just creep up on myself when I'm getting my coat on and coldcock myself while shouting "take that you Hook loving banker."

Just wait until the Mark Robson, Will Greenwood and Tony Ward fan groups turn up and it ends up like this:

Love the tshirt where can i buy one Scholar?

Sterling work as usual, thanks. keep it up

[OnTheWestCarbuncle]

I completely agree with Scholar that Gusher is worthy of mention in the same breath as the great Bill McLaren. I have thought this myself before and often thought the Six Nations coverage would be much more entertaining with Gusher at the helm. I find Eddie Butler detracts from your enjoyment whereas Gusher is either unobtrusive or enhancing the entertainment.

My favourite was from radio coverage of an away game at London Irish (I think) where he apologised for missing a bit of the action but explained that a large female London Irish supporter was "blocking out the sun". I roared at that.

[ruckover]

Just watching the game back now and Mark Robson and Scott Hastings came up with a few gems as well:
MR: "Paddy Jackson is walking rather gingerly. Well you would if you had ginger hair."
MR: "Meet Scott Hastings, the new scrum guru."
SH: "Ulster just knocking it on there...oh, no, wait...no it was an accidental offside, sorry."
