Oh dear! Listened to the show on at noon today, the Legends series or something? My god that was the most boring piece of radio i have heard in a long long while.

the problem with this show is that 90% of the time the people being interviewed are not legends.

Today was R.D. Barrassi... I think you'd call him a legend.

 

[Contra Mundum]

billy only knows about geelong and beer. he'll have not much to say otherwise. brereton will pick up his slack by talking too much and trying to sound intelligent.

"For all intensive purposes....."

 

[who wood_collingwood]

Yes it was Ron Barassi, but he was boring as bat........

Not good radio in my book!!

 

[mulhollanddrive]

After I heard him talk about adding some football numbers to his signature, i wasnt interested in anything about him.

Still broing. The ******** they replay on SEN must just be random. They pick some of the worst stuff to replay.

Even when they do their promos they pick the worst bits of shows. All weekend they were replaying brownless and simon odonnell doing some stupid private school boy chant. The morning glory is not great but there would've been much better moments to replay as promos then that ********.

 

[windyhill]

Thats pretty stupid IMO.

He is hopelss. How does he keep getting employed.

It`s got me ********ed ?!?!? He is close to the worst I have ever heard.

Listen to Dermie and then listen to Ian Chappell on the cricket and see how many times they say "I" or "When I" in a minute.They love talking about themselves.

 

[PLSC]

even though they love the sound of their own voice both of them tell you whats going to happen 5 minutes before it does

there are others who just talk because they have nfi

 

[Kooley]

Oh my god, martin pike can barely string a sentence together. listening to martin is more painful than going to the dentist.

 

[johnnyhoward]

bruce eva and mark doran will get a gig for sure and maybe matt campbell

its pretty b grade if you ask me

ill still listen to triple m but i reckon sen will do well like when the game is over they will keep talking while the other stations finish their coverage

Sometimes I hear the Friday night coverage and Triple M finish quick smart - all their talkback and everything is over by 11:00 SEN would lure in plenty of listeners due to the footy and those searching the dial for more discussion would tune in - World Sport Overnight will be massive.

Remember Sam Newman on the footy show once count something like 80 odd I, me, myself in a article written by Dermie in the late 1990's or early 2000's. Funny the next week there was 0 I, me or myself in Dermie article

They dont call dermie the "I" specialist for nothing

 

[X_box_X]

Sorry if this has been asked, can't be stuffed reading through 50 odd pages, but does anyone call up the station for discussions on certain topics, or participate in any of their sports trivia?

I have probably called them three or four times for discussion, and probably close to 100 times for their sports trivia.

 

[MagpieScouser]

i bet theyre going to play that mark mitchell'john cleese radio advertising add a million times just like the computer and jacques from zenia mortgages

Good replacement if Huddo isn't doing The Run Home

 

[puddingfactor]

Awesome news that Francis Leach is coming back.

If Huddo was to focus on his AFL commentary duties, they have managed to find a great replacement.

By far the best thing about SEN in its first year or so, and was very disappointing when he left.

Professional and passionate broadcaster, and not just an AFL man...great knowledge of all sports.

And hey, he gave me a prize. So, of course he's a good bloke.

 

[windyhill]

What was Leach`s famous comment ? Was it something like " I`m Australia`s best radio broadcaster" ?

 

[My North]

It will good to have Francis Leach back.

 

[Kooley]

leech

 

[jonesy86]

does anyone kno if tony schibecci (?) will be returning to WSO?

ive noticed he has been doing the sports updates during the day now

 

[sarbbo]

What was Leach`s famous comment ? Was it something like " I`m Australia`s best radio broadcaster" ?

Yes that was him. But things didn't go to well for him at Vega, I read somewhere that management asked him to stop talking and just to play music after a few months.

He does have great all round knowledge of sport. Don't know how well he will work with OX but he'll be better than Huddo anyway. Wouldn't have minded if they replaced Huddo with Mark Allan or Liam Pickering.
