Chestnut 3,410 Report post Posted June 8, 2024 I got quite a shock today when I flicked across and heard Bruce I don't usually listen to TS until late afternoon when it's flicked across to mainly Aussie racing.... but it was nostalgic and entertaining Nice surprise... thank you TS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend Family 377 Report post Posted June 9, 2024 Top race caller that Justin Evans .....most improved in the country for mine. Rarely makes a blue and keeps the race flowing ....so all in all a VERY good race caller and I like him very much. Bruce Sherwin is a nice guy but shouts way too much in his calls.

You were just fine Bruce, I don't think you shout at all, you do a really good job creating a picture of what is happening during your call. I used to think Mark McNamara shouted strangely enough and thought he was just ok, where others loved him. I have always rated you as a caller FF seems to profess to know everyone doesn't rate you but says you're a nice guy which I'm sure you are.

Wonderful humility Bruce- I've always rated you for the tempo and accuracy of your calling, especially when you have called a winning couple for mine at Matamata. Best of all, you haven't been lured into talking shit pre-race with Popplewell and Sweeney! Insider 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend Family 377 Report post Posted June 9, 2024 B Sherwin ....what a man .....full of humility and best of all never wraps himself. And Palliser for the record I do know Bruce along with nearly every other caller in the country past and present (been in the game a long time) .....so I reckon I can call it as I see it and for Bruce to say he's been a bit off his game shows the manners of the man. He was a great caller when I met him up in Macau about 25 years ago and didn't get quite as excited as he does now that he is part-time.....but he still nails every finish! ......Good on ya mate. You also said you thought Marc Mac was 'just OK' .....WOW you must be a hard marker Palliser as he is regarded as one of the worlds best which I agree with 100%....and yes I know him personally as well and he is a top man just like Bruce.
