Pronunciation

[Properossi]

Tonight whilst driving I turned the radio onto the football and GAGAI (GA-GUY) was making a break for Newcastle and the commentator called him GAY-GUY not sure which one is correct but I am pretty sure the latter is wrong!

What other bizarre interpretations have you heard?

The ground announcer at Townsville the other week was calling us the Western Tigers. That's a pet hate of mine. Same with West Tigers.

Few other ones are:
- 'CH' in Laffranchi
- HeighNington, not Heighington
- Not quite pronunciation, but I can't stand it when people spell Robbie Farah with two Rs - 'Farrah'. Especially on here. Come on guys!

People who call Jamie Lyon Jamie Lyons and call the Storm the Storms

Add Jarrod Mullens to that list too.

Roosters have a new winger called Master -Chef

And when the Warriors play in NZ, some fella called "Martell" always plays for them

Just noticed Fox has a commentary choice red button for the Warriors game. Clearly they realize how much of a knob that new lead commentator sounds like cos they've never done that before

Yeah Fox have to be applauded for that decision! Listening to Andy Raymond as the alternative though is a bit like deciding which one of your testicles you would prefer to dip in the deep-fryer 😱pen_mouth:

Poor old Dane, there were 2 schools of thought on how to pronounce it and they have settled on GAG - EYE, remember 10 years or so back that a certain announcer called the Tigers BELLMAIN, maybe it was just his pronunciation!.
