Blockerisms

[GNR4LIFE]

"‘Shoulder charge at worst...just a penalty."

Haha vintage Blocker that was. He’s pulled out some classics the last few weeks. Last week in the Dragons-Titans game, the Dragons were bringIng the ball off their line and he says “they’re looking good here. They’re building to something”. 10 seconds later they kick down field and the Titans begin their set. Then he says “The Titans defended really strongly in that set”.

Benji always takes the right option (according to Blocker)

Blocker’s a champion! Leave my hero alone.

There. I said it!

Souths with a full set of six from a scrum 10m out from our line "They'll get a couple of shots here Souths".

Last night when we had our last set to win the game he said we needed to chance our hand.

I remember there use to be or still is a Laurie Daley thread with Daleyisms. Both have had one too many head knocks

The Daleyisms thread was great. Best pearl of wisdom ever said -

"The team that scores the most points tonight will win the game"

Genius.

Love Block, got his Eddie Ward moment in the man cave and Doing My Block on the bookshelf. Love when he says Api Koriosau (carousel)

The only place he gets any love that I see is this forum. Understandable, considering so many ex Balmain supporters. But to the general RL public, he’s a joke.

What else should he have said 😂

Benji chanced his foot !

Kinda stating the obvious isn’t it?

But he’s a commentator...
What else is he supposed to say ?

I think he’s good but each to their own I guess !

He seems to get plenty of high-profile jobs in and around the game. Seems like more people reckon he goes good than what you think eh.
The big unit.......a throwback to a better time. He's great.

“Manly have some great forwards in their forward pack”

Loved it on Matt Johns Podcast a week or so ago when he was explaining playing at SCG I think it was and he said "you had to go past the members yelling abuse at you and then you walked through this steel gate that spun around"......Paul Kent said "it's called a turnstile!"🤣🤣

Spoken like someone who has no comeback to a statement??.
At least Block has a comeback at hand?

Is there anything I could come back with that you would accept as an acceptable response? I’m apart of 3 Supercoch pages on Facebook and any time he calls a game, they get flooded with posts with people laughing at him. That’s what my original comment that you replied to was based on. I’m not expecting to change your mind, just stating what I see.

I'm not fussed what you say TBH, or whether it's 'acceptable' or not.
Just stating a fact that Blocker is rated by many in and around the game, that's why he is still around and hasn't gone the way of Gasnier, Belcher etc.
That holds a bit more weight than what jokers on a Facebook page think.

That’s your opinion. No need to take it personally.

Great. I don’t begrudge anyone for liking him. I don’t expect people to not like him cos I don’t. Further to what you were saying about what carries weight, then I guess we shouldn’t complain about guys like Ennis and Bwaith for the same reasons. I mean, if you’re going to be consistent.
