Sandy’s been around for a while. I remember working as a stringer at The Herald in the 80’s manually calculating the ladder and phoning it through to him just before he went on air for the 6pm news. He was always up for a laugh even when I’d tried to give the Bombers a boost from a fat-finger calcualator error.
Appropo of nothing the previous incumbent in that job at The Herald was one E McGuire.

You can say he’s not “tooo bad” but that also means he’s in the realm of bad.

“Ohhh my hat!!” Sandy’s retired now?

His work on Fox Footy has been good these past few years. He never took himself too seriously and always tried to add a little colour to his commentary unlike these useless try hards these days. He’s the last of the genuine decent guys from a bygone era to give it up now.
