Fine 13 years to late. Ultimate narcissist. Craig Hutchinson has gone up in my estimation.Won't be difficult for Heverin to have a more mature response to those who dare to disagree when compared to his infantile predecessor. 

Have a bland response...no real personality with young Jack but he is one of Hutchies boys.

I found Finey very entertaining and next to Bartlett the best thing on SEN, but each to there own.

Fine's gone and I reckon Bartlett is in the waiting room & on his way out. Turf has probably saved him for the time being.

These two guys worked there for 12 and 14 years and were basically told to p-ss off, hand in your pass now and get out of the station immediately. Surely after that long a little more respect is due.

Whateley is doing a Tim Lane.  He is probably the closest radio/TV person to Tim Lane, as an articulate and intelligent broadcaster of virtually all sport. He does his homework and speaks kn

Finey lost the plot somewhere along the way IMHO. I used to quite like him, but stopped listening to him a couple of years ago. He became way too belligerent, opiniated and aggressive/disrespectful to callers who dared to disagree with him.

Have a bex and a lie down Finey, and enjoy spending more time with you family.

Spot on. New his stuff, although biased,but rambled incessantly. Interview technique was appalling. Sure, don't want bland,but almost anything would be an improvement. Fine mastered the art of 'talk to' rather than 'talk back' radio.Demeaned the caller and listener.Incredibly self indulgent.Would be very surprised if any other network would pick him up. Then again, Campbell Brown gets a gig at 7!

So now Rodney Hogg is gone....

The last one out with any personality please turn off the lights.

I actually like listening to Rodney. The replacements are probably all getting paid less. So far I have not heard a name I would listen to 3aw looks like getting more of my listening time.

so far it's hard to tell if these sackings are all part of a master plan or just dear leader going through a stalinist purge of everyone he doesn't like

it could be that he has pretensions to up market acceptability (in the sports arena????), and any presenter with a whiff of bogan, meathead or numbskull about them, or someone who might not pass muster in camberwell village, is being shown the door.

why then would hillier go? why would maher stay? why would those two knuckleheads in the morning stay?

they're sacrificing a lot of SPORTS knowledge for .... what exactly? the mellifluous tones of mr "i have unshakeable principles unless slobbo is around to shout me down" whately?

ultimately it's all about ratings and ad revenue, so time will tell. but so far this brave new SEN seems to be all over the shop.

I went to an NFL game a few years ago. 11 minutes of actual play during a 3.5 hour game.  11 minutes. 

 

More action fighting for a spot at the urinal.

NFL is bog ordinary. Would not cross the road to watch it. Staggering egos and pay-cheques, and full of politics.

I went to an ice hockey game.

Fair dinkum, the yanks would watch tiddlywinks if it was in a huge stadium with flashing lights, ear splitting music, popcorn, kiss cam, remote control blimps, G-rated strippers cheerleaders, and various other mind numbing distractions for tiny minds.

I'm surprised they were able to concentrate for 11 entire minutes. No wonder they hate cricket.

G Lyon has the worst voice for morning radio. Absolutely no projection, which is the first principle taught to anyone who went to a Radio School. 

Kevin Hillier has been booted as well??

outrageous, the guy is an old school professional. 

He did breakfast radio with The D Generation in the early 90’s

Halcyon days!!

Unfortunately Radio School as a prerequisite for radio announcing went out just as DVD players, Blackberry phones, disposable cameras and other primitive devices once used by ancient civilisations were coming in.

Now any numbnut can spout off any way they like. Adam Cooney the latest egregious example of someone who can barely be understood, but ... he's talking about AFL, can that be wrong???

 

PS surely you remember Hillier from 3XY days?

I remember 1420 3XY very well and yes Kevin was there, but this period was Kevin’s best work

Funny I have too DJ.

However I am probably a candidate for the funeral ads. Well my wife is for me I guess.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
