Former Saint and Swan Barry Hall has been sacked from Triple M radio on the spot for comments relating to Leigh Montagna’s wife.
Triple M have sacked Barry Hall. Was filling in on tonight’s match when he made an inappropriate comment in a pre-match chat. Was told not to finish his shift and now has been sacked by the station.

The comment in question related to a medical procedure that was performed on Montagna’s wife while giving birth. Many are unsure why details of this sort of personal nature were being discussed live on air and if anything further will come from this story.

This is of course not the first time Barry Hall has sabotaged his own livelihood. Hall was known for his brutality on the footy field and received one of the lengthiest bans from the tribunal in the modern era when he was suspended for seven weeks for punching Brent Staker in the jaw.
