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.

    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!

    I stopped listening to Finey when he defended Essendon and couldn’t see the difference between what they did and a player taking a pain-killing injection at half time.

    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.

    too many funeral company ads on 3AW ... we are obviously not their target audience OD .... stick to JJJ

    Actually I have gravitated to Smooth FM... not too many ads

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
