The Ground Announcer

[GNR4LIFE]

This poor guy. Could there be a worse job than having to sound happy and excited when the team is playing like rubbish and the crowd is clearly agitated? The poor guy is made to come off like a total buffoon.

Gus mentioned it.
It was embarrassing on channel nine.
Could hear the announcer trying to rev up the crowd but as Gus said.... "crowds having none of it"

I wonder if the players will really stop and think what getting booed off by your own supporters at half time really means

When several thousand dollars flows weekly into their bank account, and guaranteed to do so for the length of their contract, I highly doubt it.

Totally jaded after yesterday. It's not often anymore that this team is expected to live up to expectation, and the one time it really counted to the fans they totally bottled it.

Who's head of marketing? He/she should have stepped up to the plate if they wanted to justify their existence at that point in time.

Also whoever is in charge of the half time entertainment should be sacked first thing this morning.

The "mannequin challenge" was genuinely the worst and most cringe worthy attempt I have ever seen and these has been some stiff competition for that award.

I like how you walked away from the match with something to say about the mannequins, of all things to comment on from yesterday's match, even to remember to criticise the half-time show.

Were the pies cold also or did they get that part right?

Would've been better off putting 13 mannequins out there playing the cowboys

His ambivalence when the Cows scored TRY After TRY was impressive

I have had plenty to say on other threads but I'm glad you liked that.

Agree with most of whats been said. The announcer was cringe worthy. The half time entertainment was a complete joke.

The constant advertising of our sponsors was also inappropriate given the effort.Orginica - what fuels the Wests Tigers or whatever they said was laughable.. If thats what the product produces ill never invest in Orginica.

I like that. We’re being fuelled by a product that has us losing to winless clubs. Orginica must be thrilled with that analogy.

Can anyone explain the half time entertainment? Sounds enthralling

No. I was there, I saw it, and I still don't get it.

While we are on the subject of off field occurrences, did anyone notice how useless the scoreboard attendant was? In every game, he/she continually either didn't show the correct score or didn't bother changing it until 5 minutes after the event?

The players (from our club anyway) wouldn't care less about being booed off by its own supporters it seems.
Case in point: on the TV coverage as the players were going up the race being absolutely shamed by their own fans, Joe Ofaheguhue's response was to give the Cowboys hooker (Robson?) a pat on the back. That was it for me, it just highlighted the absolute loser mentality our club has.......absolutely disgraceful TBH.

agree the atmosphere was electric from warm up to about 2 mins into the game

 

[StarswithStripes]

I have a suggestion for a new jersey sponsor to step up from just being a ground advertiser. Wouldn’t it be great if we were sponsored by ‘Total Tools’ and had that splashed across our chests 🤪

 

[tiger_one]

The saddest part for me is that the ground announcer put more into the game than some players!
