Not a fan of bicks though he is certainly better than any of the other port guys on AA. Defending nicely agree some new talent is needed.
I also cut rowey more slack than most - he is on there to play the role he plays. More a supporter than a journo and bone was there for the harder hitting stuff. Not sure bicks will do the same.
Here's my say....this could be long.
I dont listen anymore for the record.
BONE- Bone was not "hard hitting" and if he was supposed to be, maybe thats why he isn't there any more.
- The way he tried to sound more dramatic shat me to tears. The regular things like "(insert name)......(long pause).....was our guest!"
- The way he would try to be the harsh one, then conform to whatever opinion the current guest has, even if it contradicted what he said 5 minutes ago
- The way he would pretend that he has even the slightest knowledge of what its like to be a current day footballer, as opposed to one 15 years ago.
- Him in general. I found him to be fake, uninteresting, and above all, annoying to the point that if he talked too long, or get on his high horse about anything, the music would be switched on.
ROWEY- He has no idea about anything.
- Not funny.
- If he's not instructed to act like a **** for the radio, I would hate to meet him in person.
Haven't heard Bicks except when Kane interviewed him, because I only switch over if I know something interesting happened in the AFL that day.
From what I heard of Kane, I thought he was way better than any of the regulars, and if he got a full time gig, I'd probably listen again. (As long as his missus didn't get a gig too....she's annoying as ****)
I didn't mind Graham most of the time, and would rather him on there too.
Maybe the Cornes hour would get good ratings. I reckon there would be honest arguments instead of these contrived ones they've had recently.
At least that way, you have one Crows Vs one Port person, they don't hold back on each other, and they aren't Rowey.
