    Credit to Bob, he earned his pay last week - the 100 year celebrations were right in his wheelhouse and he was the perfect spokesman for the event.

    Now that the festivities are over, it would still be good to know exactly what he is employed to do on a weekly basis and how outcomes are measured against performance in his paid role at the club. I don't want to hear about "intangibles" or "fabric of the club" type of sentiments.

      How have you adjusted to waking up early for ABC Radio Breakfast with Bob and Sharnelle?

      Love it Sedat. Just when I thought you were complementing Bob…bang…

      Would you settle for 'spirit and culture?' The ineffable magic of spontaneous brilliance in team oriented inclusive celebration.

    He was fantastic, deserves full credit for his efforts.

      He judged it well. Didn't overdo it, but played the right notes.

        Agree. Job for the boys. Perhaps he can start with a blow by blow expose of what happened in the locker room in 2017.

            If the latest radio ratings survey is any indication, we might be seeing much more of Bob at the kennel sooner rather than later. Either that or he might be hastily moved over to Triple J or ABC Classical.

              He’s actually better on the radio than I expected. I don’t listen a lot, but the chemistry between the 2 seems to have developed and they’re becoming more comfortable. Interesting to see if the ratings improve.

                I think they are improving after a shaky and nervous start. I do miss Sammy J who was very good in that time slot.
