As someone suggested somewhere, it might not be prudent of Hutchy to get the Herald-Sun offside by shafting Robbo.
They already get enough negative, bias reporting from John Anderson

From my understanding doc turf owns 33% of croc media and his brother owns another 33% stake so in effect majority stakeholders.
and... Hutchy got boned by GTV9 and Mcguire media for The Footy Show, so... they now relay hardball and ratings and perceived future ratings over their own Swan Street line-up. I don't think they will fall on hard-times...

but Ox coulda been Carey...

pretty funny when Campbell Brown and Ox said never seen never heard about drugs in footy, lol, speak to Don Scott, it was happening in the 70s, we need to ask Bohdan Babijczuk's training methods when one was a Scotch TAC cup student... come on Ox... speak the truth, everyone, tous, tout, ... well everyone who was getting invites to brownlows. listen to Don Scott spill the beans... and Champion Data founder Ted Hopkins in the start of 70s.

the lowest cost possible which endears him to those who matter. The way he manages this is through very, erm, how to say this... illegal? No, dodgy, better stick with dodgy, business practices. The actual quality of the content he produces is terrible, which given the cost he spends on them makes sense.
lowest cost, or lowest denominator, or gravity, or girth, or extemporisation ToT*
*no thought.

Turf is cluey, assume brother also.

Hutchy, mebbe buddying up to the McDonalds Marketing Manager is about his station in life. No doubt all those cats will make a motza, good luck to them. I like Finey, I like Lucas... I like KB and Denham, and the racing guy Jason Richardson. The rest... meh.

Mate Hutchy is a content man so i would not be surprised if he has a big crack at the cricket rights. Also wouldn't be surprised to see some American sport creep in if it's cheap.

So it ain't over. But Hutchy's talent selection is questionable. Take Wallace, shocking voice for radio. Just hard to listen to and that's setting aside his delusional non ironical use of the 'list manager' moniker.

They've improved overnight if Dan Lonergan does it - a bulldogs whinger but a pro. The work experience kids on overnight have largely been terrible.

Other Croc talent like Pickering, Cooney and Kosi are close to unlistenable.

If Hutchy can fix the cricket rights that would be a start. Otherwise SEN will remain a barren, talent and entertainment free, blokey zone of irrelevance in summer.
great pallour and epidermis tho

Have to agree. Starting to wane from SEN, because I get sick of the blokey pub/club culture. When Harf, Rita and Richo used to do their segment every Friday, it was the funniest 2 hours on radio. Rita got poached by 3AW where she does a 10 minute segment with that misogynist Elliot. SEN & 3AW need female presenters. Mainstream radio is stuck in the 1950's.

Totally agree.
But the blokey/pub/aussie deadshit bogan culture seems to be ragin popular. How else to you explain the success of garbage like the Front Bar???

I actually enjoyed the run home. Sure, Marko is a flog with zero sporting knowledge outside golf but he had good chemistry with the Ox, who didn't take himself too seriously. The rest of their shows outside hungry for sport and crunchtime are garbage, Lyon and Watson are horrible in the mornings and Finey is just a grumpy old prick.

i heard 2 intelligent males having a well reasoned discussion about cricket :eek:

if this is a sign of things to come then count me in.
