This bloke is funnier than most comedians in the country and he's an ex cricketer

[@darylkanofski9327]

Spot on

[@kevinmoor26]

I used to work as a funeral director. One Saturday I was listening to ABC Grandstand on the way to a client's home to arrange a funeral. Rain had interrupted play, so Kerry was telling stories. I was pissing myself so much I had to phone the office to be replaced.

[@mortyprendergast1950]

It’s a shame that the majority of people know Kerry only for his humour. He is one of the finest and most knowledgeable scholars of the game. 🏏

[@shahmianas8512]

I agree. His analysis is top notch. One thing also I've noticed is how much he knows about every touring player. Modern day politically correct hyped up commentators can't even pronounce names and get players mixed up. Shows the work Skull puts in behind the screens.

[@danielwebb4047]

Met skull in hobart fairdinkum what a legend of a bloke happy to chat about the game and have a beer with the people best commentator in the game by a mile

[@davidotoole219]

Kerry O'Keeffe is as sharp as a whip in all his tactical acumen and comments about technique of players during his commentating,as well as being the funniest sports commentators I have ever seen or heard, thanks for making us all laugh Skull!!!

[@cmcdonald5710]

Kerry O'Keeffe - from a time when Australian cricketers were legends. Shame we have lost all of that & won't get it back. He is so funny in this interview.

[@peternagy-im4be]

Much better times. Today's Australia is fcking terrible

[@rexhoffmann7334]

I could not agree with you more. Unfortunately. The last Ausi Legend in my opinion has sadly left us not that long ago. Shane Warne. Not only a legend but also an incredible human being.

My sister was not into cricket. I started watching with the sound off and the radio on. She became addicted to listening to Kerry and having the most fun laughing with him.

Great piece of intro music...the Master's Apprentices... Skull's storytelling is up there with the great Maxie Walker (RIP) but I struggle with that laugh...Guess I watched too much of Muttley in the Wacky Races a long time ago.

Absolutely love skull a product of bygone era that was not subject to vapid political correctness, his self effacing humor is why he is universally loved, and what was once, what Australian culture was forged and built, when we could laugh at ourselves, after all, we came from convict stock!! And how rapacious was the ACB paying $200!!! to these venerated players of cricket history!!!! Considering the take at each match would have around $500k
