So it’s live tonight? Wonders never cease.

Sounds last minute, the men are in for their show & called in to host this beforehand.

Even the guest, Mike’s a regular of theirs. Sounds strange. What do others think?

SA election coverage on 5AA

What was the election coverage like on FiveAA?

Guessing they had AFL on as well?

Live news bulletins from Hindmarsh Square on a weekend evening is a change from the usual.

Hadley is great at comedy, more today. This is a quote Jocks’ Journal have found:

Ray Hadley: ABC Radio did me a huge favour

2GB/4BC radio host Ray Hadley says ABC Brisbane did him a favour by reshuffling their program line-up. ABC’s Steve Austin was moved to a new Drive program. Hadley said. “We started about 8 points behind the ABC nearly two years ago. I’m now consistently about 8 per cent. The ABC gave me a huge favour with their program changes; their previous host was a proven performer."

No surprise to many of you that Ray can’t add up. He thinks he’s 8% now but was 8 behind the ABC. Subtract 8 from 8 and supposedly he began on a Talking Lifestyle share. Never happened:

9am - midday
4BC 5.4
612 10.9

Remember 612 mornings begins 8:30am, so some of the 13.7% b’fast share contributes to the 8:30 - 11am result (ie. it would be higher most likely)

4BC keeping what jobs are left within the family, Jarryd Braybrook has begun in the newsroom. He is also a panel op and has been for some time.

3AW has revamped its Sunday sports coverage for 2018. The preview show for the 3.20pm AFL match has been reduced from three hours to one hour, and will now start at 2pm Melbourne time. From midday to 2pm, there will be a new show called Sunday Sport, hosted by Daniel Harford, Jimmy Bartel, and Mark Robinson from the Herald Sun and Fox Footy’s AFL 360.

And yet they’re starting a sports station, so they create more sports content for AW. :thinking:

strong text Former Melbourne FM announcer and Owner of the Albion Hotel in Port Melbourne is Current at 3AW In Melbourne… Coulkd he be signing with 3AW Today?

3AW newsreader Tony Tardio and The Australian’s Chip Le Grand were involved in a minor stoush yesterday, just after Cricket Australia CEO James Sutherland’s press conference on ball tampering. According to Fox Sports reporter Tom Morris on Sportsday, Tardio asked several forceful questions at Sutherland as all journalists do, and at one stage Le Grand asked Tardio: “Are you even a journalist?” Tardio forcefully replied: “Yes.” After the press conference finished and Sutherland walked away, Le Grand had another go at Tardio verbally, but Tardio didn’t want it and started to walk away, it was when Le Grand pushed Tardio and both men had to be separated by fellow journalists.
EDIT: the video can be seen here. Le Grand has since apologised to Tardio.

They showed vision of it on the AFL Sunday Footy Show.

This was a disgraceful attack on Tony Tardio.

Full vision here:

Tony was professional as always at the presser and to endure small mindedness from pink shirt, more fool Chip Le Grand.

Isn’t the first frustrated newspaper journo to lash out at broadcast journos.

Chip has a bit of form behaving like this (in a broader sense), does he not?

Yes, he does and his equally bully of an employer, News Ltd will simply wave him on.

And he has a great sense of humour. Sharp as a tack at his ripe old age.

Interesting to have 2GB/3AW evenings host Steve Price on Nova 100 this morning promoting his role in Priscilla Queen of the Desert musical. Can you imagine Ray Hadley appearing on FM breakfast show like Kyle & Jackie O or Fitzy & Wippa?
