Radio The SEN Thread 5

[downloadme]

Funny you should say that, Schibeci is actually pronounced "ski-be-chi" in his native Italian

all, and it's not even their job. Why can't a similar James Willoughby type exist in the afternoons for SEN?

Because they have to be at School or creche

What were we saying about lack of sporting knowledge.
I know he is employed to be a golfing expert but he still does enough other things at Sen....the golfer Allen just said to Finey " Who is Clarrie Grimmet ? "
Who is Clarrie Grimmet , who is Roy Cazaly , who is Rod Laver..good on Finey for not making a fool or Allen but you could tell Finey could have made him look a complete fool if he wanted to.
Who is Clarrie Grimmet , wouldnt you just shut up if you didnt know and you were part of a sports radio station rather than show your lack of history.
Who is Clarrie Grimmet , The real question is Who is employing or preparing these people at Sen ?

From the "is it just me " file...

I repeatedly hear KB using the phrase, as he puts it, "poo pooed" . It drives me crazy. Its "poo hooed" KB!!!! Get it right, it sounds bloody ridiculous!!!

 

[peternorth]

thank god tim and andy are off the airwaves (for the summer at least). today they (kb also did this segment) asked listeners what their best sporting events were of the year.

compare and contrast:

watson
1. shane crawford winning a premiership

kb
1. usain bolts 100m GM
2. phelps numerous GMs
3. mitchell diving (i think)
cant remember the other two.


and lol, one claler talks about jamie whincup's performance in the V8s. maher honestly admits that he and tim dont know much about the sport. props there.

Beggars belief but who's surprised? Almost as idiotic as not having Soccer as in his 10 best ball sports!!Shock horror Sen talkback neandathals engaging in another Soccer V Aussie Rules debate. tedious stuff

 

[paul scholes]

I think it makes a lot of sense to cut his show by an hour, it would be hard to fill 4 hours of radio 5 days a week. I would think it could make his show more interesting.

Eddie will be great on SEN. He will have great interviews and has got a lot of pull in Melbourne, so it would be great radio I think. Unless there was a Collingwood controversy, then there may be a bit of bias.

Mcguire's a class act a welcome addition IMHO

 

[paul scholes]

nah, when ed starts showing his collingwood bias we'll start jumping up and down

oh and there will always be something to bitch about re: the others.

No less bias than I'm enduring tonight with Schubecci. Just another one for the growing Shubecci bloopster updates he refered to someone as from Belarus as a Belarussian

 

[beez]

It really annoys me after 1am on the weekend they bloody do "best of".

He's right. They are called that. Former Arsenal player Hleb was always referred to as a Belarussian and he's from Belarus.

the host mustve been reading sen.

having travelled fairly extensively i dont know of any country where its natives argue so much over which sport is "better".

 

[ben.carbonaro]

Yeah, I find it really annoying it too.

What a weekend edition of the All Night Appetite?

I'm sure Hutchy could see the worth in doing this.

I'm sure Hutchy could see the worth in doing this.

dont really understand the second sentence, but i assume you are advocating replays of all night appetite?

 

[Hawthorn United]

I'm assuming he meant to type "what about a weekend...."

 

[peternorth]

I'm assuming he meant to type "what about a weekend...."

if that's the case a big


NO

 

[Aker39]

if that's the case a big


NO

So you'd prefer repeats

 

[peternorth]

So you'd prefer repeats

well, after re-reading the past few posts i realised it wasnt about repeats of ANA. my opinion was relating to ANA repeats.

anyway, dont care what's on at that time cause im asleep.

but tbh, if i was awake id be listening to EPL coverage on another radio station.

 

[pepsi]

So you'd prefer repeats

If it has any aspect of that crap poker show, then yes I would prefer repeats. However if they put a host in there who does not want to discuss or talk about poker, then put in a weekend edition of All night appetite.

It's some of the best radio I've ever heard. How they can update 3 different English leagues and also commentate the game is brilliant.

Not knocking the sport, but there isn't as much happening on the pitch so it allows them to do their around the grounds as such.

When a likely goal scoring opportunity arises, they'll commentate it.

 

[Aker39]

On one of the busiest days for talkback radio, and Doran takes an hour off for his summer series.

Why did they not cancel that for the day, and keep taking callers. (I want to hear all those foolish Richmond supporters talk about making the top 4 next year)

Please get his mummy to take James Whiloughby home.
I fell asleep with SEN on last night and woke up to hear James saying he had some exclusive story on Ben Cousins.
Next I hear him saying something about The Herald Suns Mike Sheehan and the headlines Richmond not going to draft Ben Cousins.
I go back to bed thinking well Richmond you have blown that.
Wake up get the paper from my front door and it says Cousins IS going to Richmond.
How many times do we have top go on about the lack of sporting knowledge at SEN amongst some of these lesser lights.
