Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лис 2013
- Billy Birmingham, the man credited for extending the reach of some of Channel 9's most famous cricket commentators, shared a rare chat with the commentary team his alter-ego -- the 12th Man -- has made a living from. Marvellous stuff!

I came hear to remember my childhood listening to Billy but more to see the joy of Shane loving this so much like one of the fans of the game he was, despite being one of the legends of the game himself. RIP Shane. Such a genuine guy. The Willy Nilly high five will live forever.
@M : Be off with you!
Billy you’re an absolute legend, I grew up listening to your gears going all the way back to Wired World of Sports and I’ll never forget it!
Billy is a LEGEND!
RIP Tony Greig :(
Tony greig - the man with all the facts about the cracks and any glitches with the pitches
Simply said....my childhood in a nut shell. Just a good as the coverage. What a legend....Billy Birmingham.
@user-gu4tv4hp6s No one cares
I even got this in South Africa growing up. I loved listening to it.
I remember my dad "confiscating" my copy of the original 12th man when i was a bout 12, Too much swearing, 5 years later i borrow the car and what is in the cassette deck, yep my copy of the 12th man
but Daaaaaaaadddd, that's the best age to first hear 12th Man!!! (and Rodney Rude etc!)
RIP WARNE ABSOLUTE LEGEND
prove it
Shouldn't have got the clot shot.
What a legend, his max Walker was fantastic, I still listen to those albums every year or two.
The Wired World of Sports 2 was the best XD
"Can you hear me Ken?" "Urgh" *Whack* "Can you hear me Ken?"... "OOh I needed that, the ole' back teeth were nearly floating"
3 great blokes there. R.I.P. Warney !
Legend. First heard 12th Man on, yes, a bootleg TDK brought over by our two superb overseas Aussies in 1987. Life was never the same again. It was forever better.
RIP Warney, Australian Legend
Wastheman Abadrooter and Whatayamean Was-he are our opening batsmen for today.
I was on a contiki tour in Europe 30 years ago. To my surprise, someone put on a 12th man tape - and bugger me, all the Saffies on the bus (about a dozen) knew the lines word for word! Great times.
12th Man topped off an amazing childhood. Billy is the man!
Canary yellow? That's Australian Gold my friend and don't you f*cking forget it!
Canary yellow indeed.
Beautiful. And such a lovely explanation of his own craft. Hail the Great Man
Never get sick of listening to the commentary that just cracks me up. Great laughs, Great Memories from the best era of crickets ever to exist.
Rexol weather watch machine, I remember that!! Tony, Richie and Bill are missed so much.
max walker ,great man this guy's still walk's around wow!!!!!.
Tony Greig was the best - A grudge to me, is no more then a place to park your car.
this man was a legend, shame he didn't go a bit longer
He was a South African who loved Australia.
Pork your cor**
@@richrockefeller3331He was a South African who captained England
'Shhilver shhovreign' hahaha classic! Billy's the best!
Omg I loved listening to this when I was back at school the 12th man was a big part of my teenage years me and my best mate would laugh and try and do the voices of the character's we got good at the voices all our other school friends would laugh at us🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 "class of 1997"
This was our quote on our year shirt.
(Year 10 never again)
His Kerry Packer was just gold, but to be fair, all his impersonations were spot on
"here a bouncer, there a yorker, every ball a real corker. Simon o'Donnell had a ball ee I ee i oh!"
A genius if you have the background to appreciate him.
I loved Billy's Richie character. I could have listened to him for hours, doing all sorts of mundane tasks like shopping etc. I know the real Richie didn't swear like that, but the satire Richie was the best swearer I've ever heard. A great example is when Eddie McGuire calls Richie up to tell him he's boned and being replaced by Billy Birmingham - Richie's reaction is absolute gold!
It's sad knowing Warnie isn't with us anymore, along with Richie, Tony and Max. I loved all those guys.
My favorite is when he did Darryl Eastlake!!!! Funny man!!!!
RIP Warney ♥️♥️♥️
Epic part of summers as a kid for me
RIP Warnie. Love these guys.
Watched this whole vid without even remembering that Warnie is longer with us! So weird that he went so soon - I always imagined him being around in the commentary box until a ripe old age just like Richie......
Oh ya brings back some good memories this :)
I miss him so much 😪
Good old days Wen ch 9 gave free 2 air. .thnx.
The man is a LEGEND!
and Warney has this new ball they call the "Booster"
He comes in and gets it and again and again he gets it and heeeeeee's gooooone!
Fantastic stuff. So bittersweet now, of course.
Shane Warne. Shane Warne. Why you and why now? Gutted. Rest in eternal peace.
Where did he come up with situations like-- (while commentating, Darryl Eastlake says to Jack Gibson)
'i can see Ron Gibbs warming up on the sideline, looks like he's coming on for Wayne Pearce. Yes Pearce off Jack, Gibbs on!'
Jack Gibson
"What did u say f@ck knuckle?"
Genius. This is great. Thanks for uploading this. So great to watch
Pure Gold :-D
Marvellous
2017 ... loving it
Vale Greigy... Was always my favourite
Obviously you were fooled.
Hard to believe Warnie is no longer with us.
And he wrote a lot of material for other comedians as well. Most notably Australiana by Austin Tacious
Love him
the girth of the man
Jesus Billy get onto this crew on FOXTEL geewiz , this era has been lost , whats happening
Aaaaahhhh!!!💜🤣😂🤪😅GOOD TIMES!🎉miss all of it! Special father/daughter bonding. The Sarge was a character!😉😅miss him madly🕊🙏🫡
(My Parrotlet is named “Willy Nilly)
Legend
simply one of the best. Indian cricket players? no problem. New Zealand league team? piece of cake
Brandon O'Sullivan can never get the name of the half back
Splendid indeed 👌
RIP Warnie 😔
I love the twelfth man. Funny stuff 🤣🤣🤣
This literally reminded me that Warney isn't with us anymore....I went from laughing to lamenting slightly. 😢 can't believe Bill Lawry outlived Warney....absolutely crazy stuff.
RIP Warnie
6:53 I wonder if Warney was making a Liz Hurley reference there during the Austin Powers bit?
Classic Billy
Still listen to it, and still wet myself laughing
I find myself having to listen to it every summer now that 4 have passed and the rest retired. Once in a lifetime group of guys with unique voices and personalities.
@@carncats07 and I bet you still cry laughing, I played it for an Indian mate at work and he was in tears laughing.
@@GeneralG1810 He probably has a mate back home called Madonna Cant Singh or Mohamed Hasabigun.
I like how Billy wanted to change the subject after Warne was trying to encourage him to do a new 12th Man impersonating the current cardboard cut-out commentary team Nine has. Just imagine trying to do impressions of dullards like Slater, Healy, Taylor and Brayshaw. That would be a chore of a comedy album to make.
Hahahaha you're right I don't think he wants a bar of it!
Make no mistake friend,the commentary team at Sky Sports in England is significantly duller than channel 9's current lot.
+A.J. Meyer Come come. Dullurds?! Slats is an excitable himbo, Healy is an excitable booze hound, Brayshaw is an excitable hollowman, and Tubby.... Tubby has tard annunciation and dribbles absolute shiat, but I love how he randomly gets pumped up about something, even the quality of the party pies he had during morning break. Now, the teeem at 9 may be a number of things, but dullards they ain't.... Got no problem with the ad hominem +A.J. Meyer, but if you're gonna be sledging a whole bunch of people, ya gotta be accurate with the burn.
+Scott Handley I stand corrected.
I don't mind the new crop of commentators, they have grown on me and they have much more confidence than when they first started and it shows in their ability to tell a story or explain tactics. I'll admit they were a bit hard to listen to in their early days. Tubby and Slats have really shown their excitable nature and personality lately which I never expected from them. Although Tubby did fire up for Siddle's hat-trick a few years ago when he was kind of new to the commentary box, which was awesome.
Heals is usually very calm and measured, but I still appreciate his input. He's a cricket intellectual.
Kevin Pieterson is a bit strange to listen to, I bet 12th Man would have a field day impersonating him. I like him though, he brings some colour to the box.
"Brayshaw is an excitable hollowman" that describes him perfectly, but I still like what he brings to the table.
Warne and Tubby is like the next Bill and Tony with the whole Melbourne V Sydney banter they provide.
I'm yet to come around to Michael Clarke's commentary. He tries his best, he knows what he's talking about, but it comes off a bit... condescending? I dunno, it feels like he's a bit too analytical and doesn't bring much fun to his input. It's a bit too educational for my liking. Give him a couple more year's experience.
My summers were the channel 9 commentary team. Before the new generations of clowns ruined it
makes my summers 23% worse
Ikr the channel 7 drop kicks have got no mojo to cricket commentary
@@ndingo they have such an easy job but somehow they just say the most retarted thing possinle
Love it
42 dislikes? Clearly no idea on talent.
Talent?he is average at best
@cullyx2913 you obviously don't know talent
Warney looked very nervous throughout.
Love him - they should pay him to do Richie Beneaud now Richie can sadly no longer do Richie
His Ray Warren is the best of all...
Why not just let billy Birmingham commentate the test series
Why isn't Billy commentating.. a regular innings at least, for real?!!
Is the 12th man wearing a box?
Haha . Might be an incontinence pad. Either way it's ugly. The producer/ director needed to send a message
long live stuart macgill best leg spinner ever .
john welch And one of the biggest flogs
Classic
What does the title mean? Why Versus Warne? They didn’t fight or debate or argue
They had a little Tony Greig impersonation contest at the start
classic
Warney? No, no, you got it all wrong, mate.
Its a long WOOOORRNEEYY!
Vale Shane Warne ❤️🦘🙏
Sorry for the diversion but.....
Who saw the UFO at 4:40 just hanging in the sky?
I think that is the overhead camera (on wires).
@@SouthCoastLocos makes sense....so an IHO.... fair enough.ta
Warnie.....sit in the locker rooms and absolute giggle? Really?
Vale Warnie 🇦🇺🦘❤️
Wazimran Ahmadruta and Wadiyamin Wazi …!
rip warnie
Is he on pj trousers?
Anita and Wanda Root :D
Moose Knuckle
Who spray painted Warnie’s teeth?
I think this was filmed during his Liz Hurley metrosexual phase.
😂 Sue Ridgepipe
F’ing Warnie can’t help himself has to hear his own voice always interrupting
warney does a better tony than billy.
The modern day commentators are boring
Maybe Billy could have impersonated those nurses that Warne sexually harassed in England. That would have been funnier than this.
“Harassed.” Yeah it’s not harassment when they’re into it. Mate just because girls recoil in fear from you doesn’t mean it’s that way for everyone.
The most boring "sport" 😴
You dont drink beer with mates and have a 5 Day bender then....
No one asked you
You're too dumb to understand it. Unlucky bro.
