Sportsday on SEN starts this afternoon with Gerard Healy, however he will co-hosting with Brad Johnson for the first few days before Kane Cornes returns from holidays. That’s according to Shane McInnes at the end of last night’s episode / podcast.
EDIT: Gerard said on the start of today’s show that Brad Johnson would be in the chair for the next three weeks.
EDIT 2: Kane Cornes begins hosting Sportsday with Gerard on Monday, November 21.
I think Kane is running the New York marathon. I don’t know him well but I do cross paths with him a bit. His body is recovering from the Adelaide to Melbourne run but he was confident he could do it.
Sportsday SA has left FiveAA and moved accross to SENSA. Its starts up in 1323 Cruise in the new year. They have a rotation of fill in hosts in the meantime.
No announcement on what SENSA breakfast will look like in 2023. Still some rumours Haysey is moving to FM radio and of course Cornes has left.
Nova confirmed Hasey has rejoined the station (he started his radio career as a Casanova on Nova 919’s street team and was a roving reporter for Nova 919’s Lewis & Lowe).
Possible but wouldn’t be a good move. We get Fridays relayed already so it’s only Monday to Thursday as it is. Might work if it was say Garry and Kane for the five days but alot of the others are not very well liked here to have them on regularly.
Sounds like they are trying to get Mark Bickley over from FiveAA.
Not many big name media people in SA without a regular gig. Guys like John Casey, Andrew Mcleod, Brett Maher and Bryce Gibbs do weekend shows for SEN SA but don’t thimk they will do a regular weekday spot. Maybe a mix of them like Vic Breakfast does.
I am surprised that Andrew Hayes has stayed on air depite him leaving to go to Nova at yhe end if the year. He doesn’t mention it but guests and callers have referred to him leaving.
No big deal and he is a professional but just unusual in radio.
I know their night 1 draft coverage was pretty ordinary (basically Kane Cornes and Matt Rendell interviewing top 10 picks), but I wonder how many were upset when, at least online, they cut into the coverage about 40 minutes from the end of night 1 (about 5-6 picks) for a preview of Serbia vs Cameroon at the World Cup?
Kudos to SEN World Cup commentary team. It’s been excellent throughout the tournament and provides a good local alternative to the BBC coverage on SBS radio.
