    Big get, yes. Money speaks. 

    What a waste of talent. One of my faves. Was hoping he'd go to 7 and half of their knobbs get the flick, especially BT. Oh well...

    Well there you go. Good call Gorgoth

    SEN just got serious. 

    Still should have kept The Ox

    Either SEN is going to change sufficiently, to start appealing to more than bogans (I count myself as one, considering the amount of time is spend listening to it) , or Whateley won’t last the year

    I read he has the 9am - 12 slot Monday to Friday. Did KB also get the boot? 

    KB will be on from 12pm - 3pm with Dr Turf.

    Sorry, from 3pm to 6pm.

    Is it a full time gig for Dr Turf or just his normal cameo’s?

    They will fill the 3pm - 6pm time slot. 

    It will be called " KB and the Doc".

    I posted the wrong time slot earlier.

    The challenge for SEN,apart from getting a few intelligent english speakers to listen in, will be to explain to Garry that he is no longer the smartest guy on the block.

    Whateley will be ok with whoever comes along given he has managed to deal with Slobbo 360 for several seasons of TV.

    I reckon that the cretin Turf has some money in the game ...the afternoon will be an unlistenable few hours of content free slagging off and bickering  and the end of KB

    Garry Lyon is awful on radio. His voice is just not suited

    the station is mad if they don’t hear this

    I quite like Garry on radio. Tim too. I listen to the morning show every, errr, morning.

    I though KB went alright by himself along with his regular guests. Don’t see a need for him to be paired off.

    Except the content free half hour KB did with  dr.idiot which was impenetrable garbage unless  you fancy horse torture and gambling.

    you are correct about Whately....short term surely

    Is it too  late for  Ox to replace the laughing hyena OKeefe on the ABC cricket?

    Ease up. Dr Turf has been a clever, successful and funny bastard since his days on 3RRR

    A lot of the topics he raised with KB were very worthy of discussion

    and no i am not gambler or horse lover of any note. 

    The Jon Ralph hours were far worse

    Whateley is a huge get.

    An old fashioned type of caller, but adjusted for the 21st century.

    Clear intelligent commentary and does his homework.

    Have often wondered about the economics of SEN especially outside the AFL season.

    Talk back personality radio is a high price model by comparison to say Smooth FM where you just have one presenter to the whole of Australia who "pretends" to be in each city.

    The Coudabeens were funny and genuinely irreverent on RRR as well....doesnt mean they are not bat sheet boring now.

    If Turf  can revisit the 70s/80s before he got rich and he and KB can actually let each other finish a sentence ..........? 

    We will see.-Dont hold your breath .

    He might try because surely he's a silent partner with the ogre who brought the Station and money is a motivator  par excellence.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
