A little crispy one Garry - The footy media thread

Heard Michael Christian on there the other day.
Was in the morning.
Gave it a go but was so boring had to flick it to FM not long into the show.

Yeah. I found Christian’s interview with Sam Harper cringeworthy and decided to tune out too.

When I used to listen to it, Ox was one of the few I could stomach. Seemed genuine, knew his limitations and took the ■■■■ out of himself when he had to, reckon he was stiff

Mark Allen is a ■■■■

Ox as a commentator was really crap though

To be fair, about 99% of the population is in the same boat. It’s a pretty tin-pot operation.

Not me, I listen to it every day. I reckon Tim and Garry are very good of a morning. Francis Leach broadcasts from his pedestal but he’s gone. Ox and Mark were uninformed but I can stomach them and KB cause they’re talking sport and I’d rather listen to that than anything else. I like radar when he’s on and Harf was very good but they stupidly lost him.
I also reckon that Hutchy, Pickers and Dr Turf on Saturday is the best two hours of radio all week.

Wait, they sacked Ox and Marko, but kept Bartlett??? WTF is going on.

Poor form by SEN management. Shwartz and the other guy have been at that station for over a decade and have built quite a rapport with their audience. To escort them out of the premises with 5 minutes notice is outrageous. F Leach must have seen the writing on the wall and managed to leave on his terms. Ox’s tribute to Leach last Thursday was excellent and he himself should have been afforded the same opportunity to depart graciously.

There’s literally no one on the planet that cares about “the ox” as much as you do

Ox is a moron, but i don’t dislike him nearly as much as some others.

Allen is just the floggiest flog that ever flogged

Leach is the urinal cake in the toilet that is SEN

Ox was annoying and knows little about footy.

Marko, marko is highly irritating and knows nothing about footy. (He’s fantastic when it comes to golf, but should shut up after that).

Actually, perfectly put robbo, this sums all three up to a tee.

I reckon Schwarz is alright as a personality, but he’s a bad commentator. And he really hates us, so there’s that. Allen is straight up horrible. Show was awful (on the extremely rare times I listened, rather than pull my own fingernails out).

I think it’s a bit harsh for any employee, especially a long term one, to be frogmarched out of the building with no prior notice. So that’s poor. But on the other hand, they’ve got paid 100k+ a year to talk absolute garbage for ten years so it’s hard to have heaps of sympathy. Plenty worse off.
