I'm enjoying listening to McClure squirm when they call him out on his crap stories, today was one of the worst segments ever on SEN.
On 3AW last year for some reason he was on during some of the match coverage (Think he was boundary rider? Can't remember 100%, it was on Sunday games) and he was making analyst comments. How about you shut the * up you twerp and let the guys paid to analyze the game do so? McClure couldn't get a kick in a stampede ffs
First time long time lads!
Based in Perth, I'm warming to the new brekky show, and the change in approach to McClure has been interesting. After a week, they changed the stinger from "Melbourne's best news breaker" to simply "Latest with the news, Sam McClure". Lyon in particular isn't afraid to pull McClure up on some of his opinions, and it appears McClure's held to account a lot better than he was at 3AW.
Regardless of his personal life, Lyon is head and shoulders above the industry as an analyst, and the footy talk in particular is fantastic. Overall it's an improvement (and Leach is much better suited to his own show), but it can be a crowded studio. IMO McLachlan is superfluous to requirements, and the rapport between Lyon and Watson is diminished by McLachlan's presence
