Certified Legendary Thread 1116 SEN 2024 line up

Fair enough and I agree about the "good morning sweetheart" part, it is off putting.....but thats not Margarets fault.

...also agree with Margaret, Serena's backside is way to big in the tight stuff she wears! I also can't get into the AFLW, just doesn't grab me, neither do I like to see them fighting but then again, I don't like to see the men fighting in games either...

I usually come here in peace, but I do get upset when a lovely, cheerful, alert 90yr old is ridiculed and called names.

...end of rant, cheers

All ive ever called her was Old Mate , i really don't remember anyone abusing her . It's just the whole thing like she's put up as an expert on everything . She's probably a ripper if you met her . I would abuse Trout though

 

[bedford]

The interview with Hardwick this morning was good and when he said that's enough on the personal stuff they dropped off . Then at 1pm we have Pipe replaying the personal bits and none of the footy talk , it was disgusting to replay it.

 

[freddy mercury]

I find the attitudes towards Margaret on here quite appalling. Is it her age? if so you are a disgrace and disrespectful.....is it because she's a woman?....if so, again disgraceful and disrespectful..

She obviously loves most sports and can talk more knowledgeably about them when she rings in than the majority of callers I've heard..... she apparently comes from a sporting family, is a widow who listens and watches sport to fill in her days/nights....

....very much the same as my mum who is 89. She watches the races nearly every day, loves the footy, tennis and golf. She can tell you all the relevant details of those sports..it keeps her mind active.

Like Margaret she can hold a good conversation about all those sports....because of those interests it keeps them alive, interested and alert, a purpose to get up, something to look forward too.....instead of just sitting in a chair staring at the walls, feeling lonely and waiting to die..

You guys should be hoping you are as alert as they are when and if you get to their age...

If thats the attitude you show in your day to day life, then no wonder the world is stuffed.

Would love to see you lot in your old age, see how you are faring.....I hope it slaps you a good one.

I enjoy hearing Margaret and so do quite a few others.

Hey Craig how's iso?

 

[lumpinee]

That's why he's a winning coach, a 3 time premiership coach

Nah, it's because she's quite ordinary/not particularly interesting, yet somehow has a weekly ~8-minute spot on one of the station's most popular shows, plus other lengthy moments when she calls other programs. You said it yourself: "She's no different than all the other regulars who call in, some also every day/night. "

She's only on there these days because it gives Hutchy the opportunity to seem like a top bloke with everyone hearing how "nice" he is to her. He obviously thinks it's good for his image.
Someone could argue that Trout From Woodend (or a bunch of other regular callers) should get a similar spot because he's funnier and knows more about sport. What's the difference? The difference is that it's much better PR for Hutchy to seem caring to a sweet old duck.

She was mildly amusing when she first started calling in to shoot her mouth off at Malthouse, et al, but the novelty wore off ages ago. She's a case of small doses being fine, but bigger doses being crap, and no amount of Hutchy's fake laughing at almost every word she utters will make change that

Trout is not funny

 

[Goroyals22]

She is totally over blown and over exposed. Every week we hear the 12 months ago rubbish from hutchy with his sickening Good Morning Sweetheart that makes him sound like a predator and then the stupid sing us a song to send us off. Ive long turned off that 10 minutes of the show and really have lost interest that was once top notch listening but is now just tired and boring.

And she is just not any other caller, she has an ad spot and also had an hour special for her birthday along with the other various freebies hutchy throws her way... God help us when she meets her end and the mourning that they will put the listeners through.

Haha yeah you are right about the fake laughter!

 

[Maddaz]

In better news it seems young Tommy has given up calling in

 

[MauroFogheri]

Twitter Blockers is one of my favourite subjects. My best footy one was an Adelaide reporter from The OZ who was going on about Port having the SANFL Premierships counted with their AFL one, and I said something like the VFL was a quasi National comp back then as the flow of talent, when it did flow, generally went one way: Rest of Australia → Victoria. He had a drive-by then blocked me, the dope. Francis Leach once blocked as he was live on air!! (all I said there was that he sometimes picked guests for that old legends segment seemingly on their political leanings)

 

[peternorth]

Imagine being on twitter and blocking people.

I dont have a twitter but can imagine the angst

 

[Collingwood 4 eternity]

Ol' mate Damian Watson copped a dodgy caller on the Overnight Show last night after midnight.

Caller said he was on the road and just crossed the SA border, then made a series of totally contradictory points about Eddie McGuire, and then tried to slip in the infamous WHAT'S THE FUNNIEST SMELLING THING IN THE WORLD prank joke to Damian.

No flies on Damian, who managed to dump him in time!

 

[bedford]

Not once has April given a Shield cricket score today , all she said was that Steve Smith was out for 7 but no score !

Surely you can Google? Shouldn’t be a scoring service as some people record
