Radio Sport on radio: SEN, Triple M, 3AW, ABC, 6PR, 5AA, 4BC, 2UE, RSN

I don't really listen to nights anymore, what's on wednesday nights these days?

an hour is a long time. it's that beefy guy that did 360 odd sports things in a year and some other guy that have no idea how to fill an hour of radio time. i swear at one point they played every current SEN ad in a row because they ran out of things to talk about and that was only 10 or so minutes in and it was awkward and painful.

Thursday night on when Finey picks out a country town and speaks to people from racing , footy , or other people from the town.

 

[MacMum]

Which town?

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Which town?

Can be any old town, can't remember tonight's, I switched off when that terrible science of sport programme came on. Managed to avoid it wherever it was buried before (actually thought they had scrapped it) but it's been moved to Thursday nights now.

 

[MacMum]

Really? No more Peakey and Selection Dissection or whatever they call it out of footy season?

Can't stand those sports/health type shows....I turn them off too.

tonight was Berrigan. I know you don't like Fine, but this is great radio

It would be....I'm a country girl and anything to do with it I love. You're right, I don't like Finey, but I do like some of his segments....it's only when he gets smart arsey and nasty that I don't like his show and switch off..

I used to always listen to it, because I'm into fitness, etc, but it's worn thin on me because they tend to say the same things over and over. Craig's ok, but he speaks a bit slowly for my "sharp" brain ( ), and tends to talk in bumper stickers. I can't imagine that his speaking gigs wouldn't be much more that "rah rah" motivation cliches

And 90% of the callers fall into 2 categories: 1) fat people desperate for weight loss advice, and, 2) people who have lost a stack weight and wanna brag about it.

But worst of farkin all is that Jacqui Louder constantly talking in an upward inflecTION. It does my head in. It baffles me how an educated person can do that.
Imagine if Peter Hitchener started reading the news by ending every sentence with an upward inflection. It would sound ridiculous.

While I'm rambling: the newsreader Anthony "Douche Bank" Laughton still reads the news like a try-hard plonker, emphasising many of THE wrong words OR syllables. Somethings he says barely make sense. I can't believe 3aw hired him.

 

[bedford]

Wish they would hire Ralph and King

Thank god Mike Sheahan gave his opinion on the Socceroos game. I can rest easy tonight now

Never heard a less informed opinion on that radio station, and this is a station where one of the main programmes is hosted by David Schwarz and Mark Allen.

Mike needs to retire and shut the fk up.

He's lost it

 

[bedford]

He's allowed to give his opinion as Peacock did and said it well , as for that flog in Leech, can't wait for him to vanish again the biased rat

Of course he's allowed to have his opinion, just as Bozza can have his about AFL if he wanted to. No one could give two shits about it though which doesnt make for good radio

I enjoyed it until Frank opened his do good trap.

Is it his political beliefs that cause your hated of francis?

You know given that SEN ran a commentary of the International Rules game on Sunday, perhaps they should have run some promos during the week to alert their listernership - and the freaking announcers - that it was even on

 

[imadodgyumpire]

The biggest problem with Mike's opinion. Is that it actually makes him look like an idiot.

Why would Mike comment on a game he has no idea about. Stick to AFL dude.

The announcers discussed it often and mentioned that there was a commentary of it, at least when I was listening they did.

100% this.

I don't subscribe to this lynch mob mentality among football fans (ie. soccer fans) that he's a crazy old man who should disappear - I still really like listening to him talk about footy.

But he's no more qualified to give an opinion about football than I am to give an opinion on baseball (a sport that I find heinously boring... but who cares what I think? I'm less than nobody to baseball fans.)

 

[wagstaff]

Very foolish by SEN to create a story on their website out of Sheahan's comments on the Socceroos game; just reinforces the perception it's an AFL PR network with only token interest in non-AFL sports.

Not listening at the moment but it’s usually Patrick Gleeson at this time.
