Re: The SEN Thread 2

Billy Brownless is part of the culture that Mark Johnston obviously wants at SEN otherwise he would have stopped this long ago.
The TV Guide liftout this week pointed out that the F word was said on Morning Glory as well.
I would say Program Manager Mark Johnston must come from a family of low morales and must swear like a trooper .

You should point out it was a guest [some Aussie NFL bloke],not one of the hosts that said it.

What the F word was said during morning glory? By one fo the presenters or by a caller?
Why did the tv guide say that? What has that got to do with tv?

This is a little bit off topic, but what is the name of the song being used for SEN's promo advertising the round one AFL games?

Just a query Noblanks.....How come you are listed as a Geelong supporter, yet are bagging one of Your teams greatest and most loved players........of course you are able to do that, but I just thought it odd..

Cant believe this show.

A) Its not an SEN show

B) They aren't even using the same bloody number as SEN use.

Why are SEN paying for this??

no idea, but even worse it's pretty much going straight into hutchy's pocket...

further, did anyone notice how they talked about their sponsors at any opportunity?

"That interview with Paul Williams brought to you by First National"

you are a grub Hutchy! a grub!

Re: The SEN Thread 2

This is shite. They took off one of my fav shows for this rubbish? LAst year we had that unfunny show with Francis Leach and his mates replace Saturday Spotlight and now this? I think i hate this even more.

We need to start a campaign to get Pickers and Mark Allan back doing their show on a saturday morning.

Re: The SEN Thread 2

Anyone notice how AW have axed all their weekend sport shows. They used to have them year round but they're not on anymore. Not a huge loss they were pretty ordinary most of the time and especially since Clinton Grybas passed away.

Macmum I'm also a passionate geelong fan and I am happy to have a go at Brownless when he deserves it. He aint one of our greatest players by the way, he was a favourite son and its great that he's still involved with the club but that doesn't mean we love his work on radio. For me MG is bad and getting worse. Billy is a big part of the problem IMHO.

Re: The SEN Thread 2

Any non-footy interview, Billy is MIA. Overnight when they replayed the interview with Murray Walker, the only words Billy said was "lights" under his breath after Tim asked what seemed like a stupid question.

Is this Hutchy's new version of Up Country Punt ? [careful how you say it ]
That was on regional radio stations on friday arvos.It was Hutchy,Billy and I think Lyon.

I only heard a bit this morning.Pickers was having a crack at the performance of KISS on The Footy Show [I didn't see it].They mentioned they spoke with Gene Simmons earlier in the morning.Did Pickers have the balls to mention to Simmons what he thought of the performance ?

Absolutely correct.

All three on MG just simply have such a limited knowledge of sport outside of AFL that it makes any interview or discussion on another sport painful to listen to.

Given this is their job, is it too much to ask they do even just a basic piece of research.

No Way, Mark Allan is as dull as dishwater.

Love him or loathe him, Hutchy is much better value, then that golf-loving freak, Mark Allan.

You have my support there...........They (SEN) sadly underestimate their listening audience......it will be non-listening, if THEY dont start taking notice of the people...........FACT...........I happen to like Mark Allen by the way....He loves his golf no more than Simon Marshall likes his racing.......I find both easy to listen too......

I think Gary Ablett was one of the clubs greatest players too but i wouldnt trust him to go get a prescription for me at the chemist either and think he was a very poor human person off the field.
My point was Billy , the allowing of swearing to happen this is all about the tone that is allowed to be set by the mgt.
The Program Manager Mark Johnston clearly has lost the players if you know what I mean , by allowing a very gutter talk standard to prevail through the station

Re: The SEN Thread 2

I hate golf more than anyone but I still find Marko very funny and great to listen to especially when he's talking footy and just general stuff (solariums lol)

spotlight will be sadly missed!

hutchy is a ****

Re: The SEN Thread 2

"Off The Bench" was like listening to an hour long info-mercial, complete with over the top selling and loud, insincere hype.

Almost everything was promoting one of Hutchy's interests. Started with his Libba TFS interview, went on to the Herald-Sun, Footy Classified, plus the non-stop reads of McDonalds ads, etc, etc....

Pickers picked him up on a few things. Hutchy referred to the Libba story as the biggest story all week. Pickers pointed out the interview was only aired on Thursday night.

If this keeps up, won't be listening in for many more weeks. I like Pickers, but his role was pretty much limited to hosing down all the rubbish coming from Hutchy's direction.

SEN can do much better than this.

Re: The SEN Thread 2

Urban rumour? Don’t deal in them.

Ray "Slug" Jordan - one of the all time footy good guys - suffered a stoke, which sadly left him with slurred speech. While doing a radio interview, I think last year, Jordan made reference to Brownless allegedly laughing in the background at his slurred speech during a previous MG segment.

Did Brownless really do it. Dunno. He denied it vociferously. If he did I’m guessing it was just insensitivity by yapping while a guest was talking. But it wouldn’t be the first, or last time, Billy’s brain may leave him high and dry on the radio. This may of happened because he’s not a professional comedian and that’s what he’s expected to be on SEN.

Often the only thing he can offer is to take the piss, and it will get him into trouble. Seinfeld had 27 writers; Letterman and Leno each have dozens; Billy has…Osca and Max?
And I don’t know if Jordan has ever been on MG since. Food for thought?

Not sure that Billy should be taking the piss out of old footballers that have disabilitys or health issues, he is the last one that should be doing that.
Give it a few years and with his mid riff and big gut i know which member of The Morning Glory will be injecting himself with insulin because of diabetes and other obesity problems.
And its not Andy Maher or Tim Watson
