Personally I have doubts about Croc Media's long term viability. Producing Radio shows, TV Shows and live sports is expensive. The expansion in their content production has gone through the roof in the last 12 months. Some of the shows like the A-League broadcasts and morning sports show on fiveaa can't be breaking even.

Doubt they could do worse than those who have been running the circus since the change to a sports based operation.

Why they spent big bucks on Lyon is beyond comprehension. No wonder Hamish bailed short of twelve months.

Lyon has been solid imo. Took him a little while to get into the swing of things but I reckon him and Whispy have been going well especially since Hame left
 
Well, the ratings don't reflect that.

Mclauglin only left ~5 weeks ago, there hasn't even been ratings reportings that will reflect whether Lyon and Watson are rating any better as a duo.

Even when we do get the final ratings for the year it won't be an accurate reflection - SEN's ratings are only really worth considering during the AFL season.

It is an infinitely better show now with just the 2 of them. And if their ratings remain steady despite there being no AFL, SEN would consider that a win.

Lyon and Watson have been working in tandem almost all year. Hamish has been very much the third string which may be part of the reason for him choosing to leave. Apart from not getting on with Lyon. The reality is their ratings have been no better than their predecessors. The major management and board ructions may well have much to do with the poor on-air decisions.

Lyon is no radio performer. He's overbearing and arrogant. He's best suited to special comments work in my view.
 
It's hard to imagine SEN with more advertisements, but with Crocmedia as owners it will happen. Every segment, every presenter, every interview will have a sponsor and a "sting". Good grief!!

Possible Casualties/Winners?

* Seem to recall The Ox having a strained relationship with Hutchison, although there's no reason why they can't work together professionally.
* Robbo will go/won't be renewed. That relationship is busted.

* Might hear more of Damien Barrett on SEN?
* Blokes like Kane Cornes might get airtime.
* Some younger talent/voices to get a run - this isn't necessarily a bad thing. Start by giving the overnight shift to someone better than the incumbent.

Robbo is a big name for the station and is part of the program (crunch time) which has won many awards. He and hutchy have a big beef with each other it seems so not sure it will work going forward. Only through this did I find out that Dr turf and his brother are part owners of crocmedia.

Off the bench has a lot of host read ads and this could translate to the station overall.

Listening to the morning show today, Lyon was adamant he and Watson would be hosting the show next year.

Robbo to be gone, if so....
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
A total bore, dumb, can't speak properly.... and a poor writer.
And they're his good points.

Imagine how many awards they could win without the buffoon...

He certainly is not the reason Crunch time has won in the past.

So I presume Croc Media (AFL Nation) and SEN will merge it's football production? Will 3AW and 6PR still take an AFL Nation call for some games?

Hard to see how 3AW will let Hutchy produce Sports Today when he owns a competing station.

KB used to say it all the time, it seeped in to Jon Ralph when he was on with KB in the mornings, but that announcer who does the shift prior to the Breakfast show honestly breaks the world record for saying "as well" every single shift.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO SAY "AS WELL" EVERY 2 F*CKING SECONDS YOU UN-TALENTED FESTERING TURD OF A PRESENTER!

Ironically Croc Media have provided the overnights content for quite a number of years, so the incumbent is a Croc employee at the moment..............

Is that still the case? I thought that arrangement had moved on, Crocmedia is frying bigger fish these days.
