Radio The SEN Thread 5

[PLSC]

I don't believe it, Scott Gullan is even more boring and annoying then Robbo .. He was on today on the 1 pm show with Harford, cause the Tubster was out feeling sick or something

robbo is awesome

yes he is a bogan but he says what he thinks unlike others

 

[The old campaigner]

Dr. Turf in fine form this morning.
He and K.B. seem to have a great rapport.
I agree that Turfy and Mark Allen are two of the best on SEN because they are passionate about sport in general and not just footy.

 

[Hawthorn United]

MG boys on fire this morning. At about 6.20ish after an ad break, Andy Maher says to Tim "Are you with us Tim?". Can only assume he was too busy watching the Liverpool vs Arsenal match than paying attention.

Tim then begins welcoming a caller and reads a trivia question.

"What number did Terry Wallace wear at Hawthorn?"

I swear I must have heard the caller answer 15, but Tim said "That's correct, 16 it is"

Then from 7am until about 7.30am or when Mark McVeigh dropped in, they took calls for which Geelong player have The Age used to put Pavlich's head on. Only to find out, the body is Pavlich's.

 

[jonesy86]

Yeah that was funny, everyone that called in to guess which players body it was got asked... have you seen the picture on the front of the age sport? and not one caller had but guessed anyway.

Turfology I - 2009

I was talking to a doctor during the week who said he likened his injuries to those received by a passenger from the Transit Police on a tram
- On Graham Polak’s 2008 injuries after his practice match return

The first words that she uttered to me on the alter were not ‘I do’ but ‘how’d you go?’
- On going to the Sandown races on his wedding day

A bloke wants to sort of embrace a new country, you don’t go doing things like that. That is anti-Australian
- On Jim Stynes getting married on Derby Day

I rang the bookies yesterday. ‘Can you back him not to finish?’ He just never finishes. Even that race in Tasmania, the bike race, you know, the charity thing. Failed to finish. He went to the shops the other day to get milk - didn’t come back, failed to finish. You know how people, next to their name they’ve got AA, or VC or whatever? He’s got DNF. Did Not Finish
- On Mark Webber’s performances

I did actually ring the gamblers Helpline, the one-800 number. I just asked them whether they thought Makybe Diva could run three-thousand-two-hundred metres?
- On whether he has a gambling problem

Because it’s got, “to Doctor Turf, you big ****, from Garry Lyon.” So how can I sell it? That’s what [Lyon] wrote on my precious jumper
- On why he can’t sell his Garry Lyon autographed Melbourne jumper

Put your hands in your pocket and all you’ll find is fluff
- On questioning KB if he put money on horses he tipped

We used to say Sydney race clockwise, Melbourne race anti-clockwise, and Queensland race crooked. That was in the days that Russ Hinze was the racing minister
- On the direction that horses run in Australian racing

I thought oh my God he’s been charged with killing the Beaumont children; he’s been caught hiding Osama bin Laden; he’s been pinched for The Great Bookie Robbery. What has he done? Well, he’s the coach of Richmond
- On picking up the Herald-Sun and seeing Terry Wallace on the front and back pages after round 3

One of the major issues really facing [racing] at the minute … is if you go Slivers Circus, those very same clowns that you see there during the day have actually been stewards at the racetrack. They’re multi-tasking
- On the Geelong races being abandoned because of stones on the track

all gold especially the gamblers helpline one

You serious?

They asked that even though you can see Rhys Palmer and also a Saints jumper in the background of the pic!!! Not to mention Pav's customary shoulder tape and he's wearing Freo shorts. Clearly a photo from last Saturday night with just the jumper and socks changed.

Bloody Moron Maher!!

 

[jonesy86]

Anyone else hear the sound grabs they were just playing on Casual Friday?

KB reading an SMS without thinking... "Andy Maher is a knob"

and Patrick Smith saying... "It was the dildo that did it for me, Kevin"

 

[peternorth]

the smith one is played during the intro of his segment. very funny!

 

[Selective Retention]

Yeah the Smith one has been around awhile.

The "Andy Maher is a knob" happened yesterday. KB what a champ

 

[paul scholes]

Just out of therapy I actually agreed with Rita this afternoon.
RE. richard Pratt. Richmond fans turning on each other this week on overnights . Chris [on the road] v Ray [alright,alright] from Werribee

 

[lihei]

Dr. Turf in fine form this morning.
He and K.B. seem to have a great rapport.

They both used to work together on the old SportsUZ morning sports show. Great listening back then as they were always on fire.

 

[TelkoTheGreat]

Gold and they just played it ending the port saints game

sorry what what was that Kevin? "andy maher is a knob"

 

[paul scholes]

Finey's final siren is becoming tedious. He's rabbiting on about stkilda not being underachievers! dear Mark my club and yours are the biggest underachievers in the competition old boy.

 

[paul scholes]

Paging all Saints fans Dave from Stkilda thinks you should get rid of the following Riewoldt and Kosi,thinks the saints will self destruct. Just further proof Dave is a complete and utter f**kwit.

C'mon Scholes, don't be too hard on the guy

Late evening / early morning radio!

A blast from the past with Dave from St Kilda, Howard Leigh and Stephen J. Peak

Dave: I’m not saying all police officers are bad but they were on mounted bikes and they basically frisked me

HL: What, inside the ground?

Dave: Er, pardon?

SJP: Outside?

Dave: As I was walking over the hill. [voice begins to break] I think they probably thought I was breaking into cars, and it was humiliating.

SJP: But, oh, you were walking through the car park were you, David?

Dave: Yeah, from Punt Road over the grassy verge - the grassy knoll

SJP: The grassy knoll? [breaking into laughter] Hope no-one got shot.

Dave: They stopped me and they told me to empty my pockets, and, you know, I’m in the arts, I’m a completely law abiding citizen

SJP: Were you making your way to the ground or were you having a walk when the cricket was on-

Dave: No, it was at the football. It was at the MCG. I was going to the footy. And, ah, it can be traumatising. I completely agree with you Howard.

HL: Well, we’re talking about inside-the-ground behaviour, but I haven’t heard of that, David. Usually police don’t talk to people outside the ground -
SJP: Yeah, were you thrown to the ground or did they push you on to a car bonnet and sort of make you spread the arms and legs for a search or something

Dave: It wasn’t a frisk. It wasn’t an internal cavity search, not that I have much-

[…]

Dave: They just told me to empty my pockets

HL: Did they? David, did you have any gold bullion in your pockets?
Dave: No, but some police officers are O.K. but some are-

HL: I haven’t heard of that sort of stuff before…

SJP: [Police] don’t usually act until they see something happen

HL: Were you on your own, David?

Dave: Yeah. And secondly, another time when I went; you see I don’t go to the footy anymore. I don’t like the crowds. I’m, you know, I’m just in the arts. I’m allowed to be a recluse. Another time they made me - the officer of whatever official MCG - made me sign a document going through the turnstiles

SJP: What did that say, David?

Dave: Pardon?

SJP: What did the document say?

Dave: Well I had to do my signature

SJP: Are you a member?

Dave: Ah, well, at that time I was on welfare, so they thought I was, you know-

SJP: Was that in the general area? Were you attempting to get a discount at the gate?

Dave: I guess that’s what they thought.

SJP: Pensioner discount or student discount?

Dave: I mean it’s fraught.

SJP: I suppose if you’re looking for a discount; did you have a discount card on you at the time?

Dave: I had a pensioner card

SJP: Pensioner card?

Dave: Well, I suffered from, um, depression

SJP: I accept that, so, they didn’t accept the card. Well sometimes they have to do signature checks because people actually do come into possession of some of those pensioner discount cards the wrong way, David. Not that they’d be thinking that but they just playing safety first and probably getting everyone to sign

Dave: Yeah, but anyway it’s a form of fascism and I completely agree with Howard

SJP: …that’s something they’re entitled to do to make sure that people who are presenting those cards are the right people presenting them. They’re not saying anyone’s dishonest, they’re just carrying out their duties to check. In the MCG members they can do a test-signing too. So the members can cop it too over there.

[moment of silence on the airwaves as Dave gives no response]

Dave: I had a couple of incidents, ah, I was at, some, ah, Richmond fans, female fans were really nasty to me. They said ‘oh you're not allowed to- [silence]

Dave from St Kilda’s call seemed to be cut off and the Gladiators quickly excused him and escaped to the next caller.

This guy is either just:
a) wallowing in Lefty victimhood (of the Arts on welfare)
b) trying to take the piss, which his usual tone didn’t indicate (monotone)
c) neurologically traumatized from years of Tigers’ fans futility (like many)
d) very lonely (from strolling alone on that grassy knoll at night)
or
e) sadly, seriously ill (seriously)

Me finks it’s the latter

Hmmm, the next caller was adamant that Ron Barassi should’ve been charged with assault when he jumped on the bloke when coming to the aid of the women as was consequently pummelled by thugs.

(and thus…one gives a sigh for this country of ours)

 

[SJ]

Haha I missed that Dave from St Kilda phonecall, wish I had heard it.

 

[Selective Retention]

He's one weird guy.

He rings up and asks the same shit over and over again, like asking SJP about Rob Harvey's allegiance in a Saints-Blues grand final.

If he is taking the piss, surely he would realise the act gets old??? I'd lean towards e) as well.

 

[paul scholes]

Don't usually advocate police violence but with Dave I'd say unleash fury.
I'm in the arts,I'm part Chinese. I think ol' Davey is a couple of sandwiches short of a picnic.

 

[dawkinsb]

I would think he was a fake, because he is so obscure, strange and arrogant, except for the fact that the gladiators have talked about meeting him at one of the christmas parties and they seemed to indicate that he is always that way.

 

[ben.carbonaro]

I have met him as well and he cames across as what everyone else is saying, he sort of stands in background.

Doesn't speak unless he is spoken to, seemed awkward when he met me.

 

[AG]

Sure it wasn't you who brought the awkwardness.

 

[ben.carbonaro]

Yeah of course, why wouldn't it be the case?

may have been intimidated at meeting the legend and his red clipboard, bc

 

[ben.carbonaro]

Callers on SEN are not legends, they are interesting and opiniated characters.

Some are annoying and some are not.
