@gregrudd Warren Boland commentates on Queensland Cup matches now, with David Wright and Gerry Collins. I do think he was great when he did Winfield Cup matches with Arthur Beetson and Bomber Peard on the sidelines.
Ray warrens pretty good - i dont see why it has to be a one of the other opinion, BUT for all his faults, Rex was a legend. Not many people realise these days that when Rexy took on the 7 commentary in the '70s, Rugy League was minor league stuff. He alone convinced the network to broadcast and its popularity took off. So - its not only just the TV stuff he was famous for - BUT the popularity of the game itself. REX had a hand in the growth of the game, largely due to his own making !!
Rex wasn't the only one who hosted sportsworld , there was Jon Harker, Dixie Marshall, Bruce Mcavaney, David Fordham & Johanna Griggs just to name a few.
"Some of the South Sydney players, as I would have done in a similar circumstance, made sure he couldn't get a play the ball and knocked the ball out of his hand". Ah the days before video ref.
Never expected to see Mario with the Moose. I'm struck at how articulate he sounds here. There's much less of a gulf here with his brother Stephen Fenech.
I always Respected Rex and that will never change.
Mario dressed like he was supposed to be on the Perfect Match show!!!
Mario is very well spoken here.
Mario is certainately into 80s fashion time to hit the nightclub at bit of duran duran maybe
Who remembers when Rex hosted a variety style tonight show on saturday nghts on channel 7 as the moose?
2 legends.
Rex , was ahead of his time , was you see is what you get , RIP Mate !
The homophobic bigoted woman hater was about 100 years behind the times. What are you on about.
What you get is what you see (Tina Turner 😜 )
Mario is an absolute champion!

Soccer is a fairy’s game there’s to many fairy’s in the world
Homo 😵💫
Lol.. Everyone loved Mario except Benny Elias.
Big Moose. No nonsense comments. Miss you big bloke

Mario with the Franciscan friar haircut.

He had a top sports show controversy corner was excellent
He even drove an RX-7
Ha ha I’m surprised Rex didn’t call Mario a poof in that suit 🙈👏

Great effort at 2.00. For all money ET was going to score
Rex was definitely the best wish Warren was 1/2 as good
Where is Neal baker now from south,
Mario should`ve been a politician. VERY careful with his words. Looked about as comfortable as Elton John`s bride.
rex was the best football commentator on tv , never a boring moment. Ray warren isnt worthy to tie mossops shoe laces.
Sure is a fetching suit!
I know it's been said already but...ummm...well...what happened to mario?
Too many hit's to the head!!
Moose GOAT!
