    Hopefully he decides his future isn't in the media.

      For about the 400th time. Talk about a production. He always does this, he establishes a show after walking out on the show he was establishing before. Then he decides that he has to break away and "work out where he is going" I'll give you 10-1 on that Frank will end up back on ABC radio.

      Hehe.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

        Just so I don't make a fool of myself. Exactly how many days mourning is there for Leech and his media career parting? I was emailed about three days of rage, but I think that's something else. It's hard to keep track of things in the modern world.

          He was a far better performer in that timeslot by himself than sharing the spotlight with others. My guess is that he isn't rethinking his future but the human boomerang will already be perfectly placed for a soft landing. If it's back in the media hopefully he won't banning so many people from his Twitter feeds. While he craves to be the centre of attention he quickly folds when he is challenged.

            He's gotta be the easiest guy in the media to wind up. He jumps at bait that even Andrew Bolt wouldn't touch.

              Apparently Schwartz and Mark Allen were sacked after their final show of the year.
              More of an In Bruges guy?

                SEN must have learned from 927's mistake when they let their morning hosts know they were out the door before they did heir last shift and tgat mornings show was a train wreck.

                  While I understand the reasons why a live on air business would do that, it still comes across as a bad practice for two that have been at SEN for so long.

                        Yep, plenty of better options out there.

                          I'd like to think that those two would be professional enough to get through a show with some dignity.

                            Same here. Mark Allen's Chasing Birdies segment is always interesting and he is very good with his golf. They could still use him in that capacity. Ox could still call the footy and fill in for others. I can't see why these two would burn bridges.

                            I don't mind changes at SEN because it needs a refresh but I still can't listen to Garry Lyon in the mornings.

                              Crocmedia (Hutchy's group) has taken a stake holding into the company that owns SEN which may explain the changes happening.

                                This is a bit harsh and unnecessary:
