Re: Wristwatcher the Man
Thats a good question Mr Carey. Its NOT the old station is really most of what i know. I understand that it may be a bit frustrating for posters to not be told now but i refer you to a conversation we had in early 2009 where i rang you regarding an unaware termination
. This should help your understanding of the situation. To all other curious parties, the season is still nearly 3 months away and all the information will be made available when all administrative issues have been finalised.
Anyway Carey i hope you will be gracing us with some assistance during some broadcasts as its players like yourself who have an intimate knowledge of the game who will be the primary resource and used on all shows to provide the most accurate analysis of all divisions.

This will just be the results show. All A and B grade results from the SAAFL for that day. What a great idea again! The plan is that I actually am the host of the 10.30-12.10 show only...Perhaps MBK PNU,s MotorBoat Mound might get one last call after all

Perhaps someone heard the speech at your 21st on the weekend and decided i needed more air time or perhaps Donna is sick of hearing me sook it over the cancellation of GrassRoots and has funnded the whole endevour.
But to answer your question there is several things i "cant do" among many others ;
- Bend down whilst running
- Refuse free Beer
- Work a 38 hour week

Club Coaches, Player Reps, Club Reps and anyone who has an intimate knowledge of GrassRoots Footy. No official names yet as we still have quite a while B4 the show starts but i have had a dozen affirmative responses in the 23 hours since i was confirmed as the host. We are sincerely hoping to improve on mistakes made in other broadcasts and bring in anyone who has got something valuable to offer.
Two people i havent spoken to yet but i am willing to admit have a greater knowledge than me of all things regarding Amateur Footy are Mick Emmet and the Footy Chick. Their input would take the show to a higher level. Several others of the ex Grass Roots panel members will also be asked for their contributions. There will also be reps from the SAWFL as well as Super League. Potentially the great thing is we have reps from EVERY club then every club will get their Saturday Preview and results and the information will be first hand.
Its a bit embarrasing to see the name of this topic "Wristwatcher the Man"
Sorry i didnt name many specific names but until i speak to people directly it would be a little audacious to name them. A few that i confirm as live guests include Shaun "Dutchy" Holland, Chris "Im better than Tys" Radetti, Nick "Fruity" Kossatch and Dan "Milko" Bryant.

Done!
