Does anyone know it 5AA does Thursday night?

I know that 6PR (part of the same group) didn't do the Easter Thursday game, a pretty significant fixture I thought!

hmm, Jacqui Felgate's rating of 7.6 is low by 3AW's standards

Do you reckon she'll last the contract she has?

It's hard to say. They're much more ruthless than their warm and fuzzy promos suggest. I vaguely remember Sarah Henderson lasting only a few months in 1994, but that was obviously a long time ago

Does anyone know it 5AA does Thursday nights?

As a general rule no, unless it is a significant game. They have scaled back their AFL coverage. They only do Friday night, two on a Saturday and one on a Sunday. Sometimes extras depending on where the Crows and Port are on.

They also no longer travel for away games.

Any new additions this season? Jimmy Bartel is definitely getting better as the seasons go on. Seems to be able to carry the program when McClure is away pretty well. Even as far back as a few years ago there was no hope in hell he’d be capable of this

At the expense of Saturday Night games.

Ok so from what I gather Jimmy is the permanent stand alone wide world of sports host. Personally didn’t mind Mcclures take on things. Is he still at the station? Maybe due to bigger role on footy classified aswell as his tradies podcast growing he has no time

That's right, Jimmy is the new regular host due to McClure's increased TV commitments. He is still doing pre game stuff so still contracted to 3AW.

Bartel is ok, but he REALLY needs a co-host. Will Lloyd, Richo and Matthews be on again this footy season?

 

[Seattle Mariners]

I can’t believe I’m saying this but I enjoyed the show more under McClure than Bartel.

Bartel is just meh…

I can't believe it either.

Given that I stopped listening to the show when McClure took over, it can't be any worse for me.

Interesting how under-used Tim Lane's highlights are in the "something about our game" broadcast opener...especially amongst squealers Tony Leonard and Beva

 

[The Sultan]

Everytime I turn on she’s talking about “youth crime epidemic”

 

[peternorth]

It’s like her obsession

 

[Cleavy]

It’s like her obsession

Which ends first? Her 3AW contract OR our youth crime problem?

I wonder if they've all been instructed to yell and scream. FMD, Beva and Grandland couldn't scream any louder.

You missed her referring people to her Instagram and giving anyone who agrees with her the obligatory two bottles of DeBortoli.
