Inverted Hit logo looks quite nice.
I just wish there was a third main brand colour to hide the little joiner between the two wavelengths to make an H.

Mirrored Adidas logo is what I see…

‘THE UNDERDOGS’ SET FOR A MAGICAL MCG MOMENT – THANKS TO THE FOX’S FIFI, FEV & NICK AND CARLTON FOOTBALL CLUB

This Saturday at the MCG, The Fox’s Fifi, Fev & Nick and the Carlton Football Club bring back one of radio and the AFL’s most heartwarming moments, giving 22 deserving kids – The Underdogs – the experience of a lifetime.

The Underdogs will run out before the Carlton vs. North Melbourne match this Saturday, 21 June, with the experience brought to life on-air across 101.9 The Fox and Kayo’s match-day coverage. Now in its second year, The Underdogs celebrates a team of kids who have faced exclusion, bullying, illness or hardship, giving them the opportunity to play as part of a team and feel like footy stars for a day.

The Underdogs will get the VIP treatment: a locker room kitted out with a new team guernsey, footy boots and a gift pack. They will also receive a motivational pre-game address from Fox Footy’s Jonathan ‘Browny’ Brown and an exclusive visit to the Fox Footy commentary box. The team will be welcomed with a special message on the official Carlton banner, before being led by Brendan Fevola, Fifi Box and Nick Cody, joined by returning waterboy Andy Lee onto the ground.

Then, the magical moment as the kids run onto the MCG to kick the footy in front of a buzzing crowd and experience the once-in-a-lifetime moment.

Over the past fortnight, The Underdogs has captivated listeners with emotional stories aired on Fifi, Fev & Nick, including the story of 11-year-old Jordan from Curlewis, who was selected after a harrowing bullying incident left him too scared to return to school.

Fifi Box said: “Jordan is exactly why we created The Underdogs – for kids who feel excluded to know that they are valued, celebrated, and part of something special. There’s nothing like the magic of the MCG, and we want every child to know they deserve to feel like a star.”

Carlton Football Club captain, Patrick Cripps, said: “The Underdogs initiative is so great. The rush of adrenaline and the smile on your face you get when you run out onto the MCG is really special, so we are so excited to be able to give these kids the chance to experience what we get to on a game day.

“This is the stuff I love to do as an AFL player, to give back to the community. These kids will get a moment they won’t forget and will be with them the rest of their lives, and hopefully it builds a lot of confidence and self-esteem. I am sure every Blues fan there will make them feel more than welcome,” Cripps concluded.

The Underdogs will take the field before the 1:20pm bounce at the MCG tomorrow, Saturday, 21 June. Experience the magical moments of The Underdogs on-air and across socials on Fifi, Fev & Nick from 6-9am weekdays on 101.9 The Fox – or download the LiSTNR app and listen for free.

“We give a Fox” screams similarity to 2Day’s “Today AF” cheeky positioner.

Only a matter of time for The Fox to follow suit.

I reckon the underdogs put in a better performance than Carlton did.

Oh wow. So that’s what MC has been up to. And it’s sad to hear he was “made redundant”. He actually would’ve suited the new sound of 2Day1041 IMO.

Plus, he was very loyal to the network following K&J’s departure. I always wondered why MC never jumped ship to ARN like everyone else did at the time.

Instead, Christian claims he was “gradually marginalised” and eventually made redundant earlier this year.

Tragic to be forced out by the company… 12 years later?

Sad to hear about the redundancy I think he’s a great operator.
In saying that the company did keep him on for 12 years so on the surface they did look after him.
Maybe he’s finding it hard to get another gig and feels like the incident has played a part?

Makes sense why he went by MC afterwards

He went by MC beforehand too. If fact he may have only ever been known as MC on air.
