Hopefully not Pearsall. He was a nutter.
Why not give someone fresh ago?
What about Shane McInnis? Heās not calling football at the moment. Could be good.
Donna Domaio from the newsroom would be good. Or Scorcher from the breakfast show?

I have to admit that I was surprised that Tony Moclair was offered his gig back as Michael McLaren is extremely popular in Sydney and Brisbane but having said that it probably makes sense to have a local on weekends as well. But agree NOT Pearsall. I was a listener from time to time but got sick of listeners sending cheerios to one another and prayers and there was that nauseating woman (Helen) from Nhil.

Mediaweek reports Tony Moclair had to broadcast from his home this morning after undergoing testing for coronavirus. Moclair was this week contacted by health officials as he had attended a venue at which it was later discovered that someone had COVID-19.

Probably why we could see the good doctor but not Moclair. Only listened for a short time.

Neil used to own a home in Malvern East, which was being used for the filming of Five Bedrooms season 2.
In other news, Mark Allen (who co-hosts The Twilight Zone with David Schwarz on 3AW on Saturdays), had been given the all clear for the second time, after scans revealed the latest tumour in his good lung, which was discovered in October last year, had now disappeared.

Yeah but I donāt believe that he lives in an apartment. I thought the house used in Five Bedrooms was his old house from a number of years ago? He now lives in another house and has for a while I believe.
