Red Symonds – 774 ABC Local Radio – 7:30 – 8am Friday’s

24 05 2007

This is a very funny half hour period of radio. After headline news stories and traffic updates Red is joined by AFL CEO Andrew Demetriou and Krackers Keenan, either on the phone or in studio, for AFL and Racing Tips for the weekend.

It appears that Red doesn’t know a lot about the AFL but I would believe he would know heaps if wasn’t in charterer. It is good that he stays in charterer because that will wreck the humor of the show.

All three talk about what has been happening in the AFL in the past week. Red makes some quite humours comments about whats happened and there is always a mention of Tuesday’s with Terry (Richmond coach Terry Wallace always has a press conference on Tuesday’s and the media have dubbed it Tuesday’s with Terry) if they talk about Richmond.

Both Andrew and Krackers offer some great comments and questions on who they think will win.

Racing is also covered as Andrew and Krackers put there tips in and tell you how they went the following Friday morning.

At quarter to eight Red wraps it up with a sign off call and its off to the news desk and for the next 15 minutes .

 As i wrote, this is up there with some of the funniest things on radio and its quite simple. 3 blokes, 1 nutter (Red), 1 CEO of a Sport (Demetriou) and 1 that has played at the highest level and won a premiership (Krackers).
