Burkey has been good, hope he stays on.
A guy who played all his career in Rugby still knows more about other sports than TK.

Had Stuart Clarke on this morning so I don't know when Burke will be back but I did think he had great knowledge of multiple sports and enjoyed his cameo, where was the Nark this morning?.

I heard a podcast interview of Langmack talking to the weekend BSB. Wow, did he open up about some incidents in 1996.
Yeah even Stuart Clark helped him by saying the line is dodgy and cutting out lol. You can still hear Langmack clear as crystal. Those stories a better left in the past.

FORMER rugby league international Paul Langmack has been admitted to a private mental health hospital just days after a bizarre radio rant in which he claimed he bet on matches alongside Tommy Raudonikis during their time as captain/coach at Western Suburbs during the 1990s.

It is understood the former State of Origin and Test star, who is currently working as an engagement executive at the NSWRL, has entered a health facility in Sydney suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.


On Sydney’s 2KY, Langmack said he and Raudonikis would discuss the day before games if their rarely fancied Magpies could do enough to cover betting spreads.

It is understood that at the time there was no prohibition on such betting.
Tommy and I would bet, we wouldn’t get the other players to bet because they’d get scared and get nervous,” Langmack told 2KY.
He was cut off by host Stuart Clark, who said Langmack’s line had “dropped out”, before he could finish a story.

Raudonikis denied the claims when The Daily Telegraph contacted him.

“None of that is true at all,” Raudonikis said.

“There is no truth in it, not one bit. I’m denying it. It didn’t happen. I can only say I didn’t do it. That’s as far as I’m concerned.

“I have nothing to hide in my rugby league career.”

The NRL is aware of the radio rant as well as Langmack’s mental health situation.

An NSWRL spokeswoman said: “Paul Langmack is on indefinite sick leave. We will raise the issue when he returns.”

Burkey was back on today.
The Nark phoned in around 6:15 this morning and he didn't last long. He knocked TK about Jemma & Victoria leaving. He then praised Matt Russell? for the pronunciation of Jillaroo Renae merkins surname.
No surprises for guessing how the Nark pronounced it. :)

Something must be up with Slats missing for a long period of time. Personal issues?
Cant say its been worst without him.
I know Grill Team was a lot more enjoyable minus Emma Freedman for 2 weeks.

Been more enjoyable without him. They just need rid themselves of the fence sitter now.

Webster and Burkey would be alright.

Anyone know the reason why Slats has been missing? Has 2ky said anything or is it just silence.

Heard TK say something last week that Slats was just having a 'rest'. What ever that means.
Even his twitter account is inactive. Almost been a month since his last post.

On the BSB facebook page many people have asked where Slats is. Suspect it is something serious for him to be away this long.

I hope it's permanent laryngitis. Other than that I hope he's alright, he's had form for being a little troubled in the past hasn't he?

Yes he has. Bipolar and bouts of depression along with constant back pain.
He either has health problems, someone in his family is sick or his is having trouble with Sky sports.
Its very unusual for his long absence not be explained.

They haven't changed the Breakfast Cereal boxes so I'm guessing he'll be back, has anyone rung the open line and asked the panel operators what's going on?.

Slats back on air today.
The only reason I heard for his 6 weeks off was he needed a rest in Qld.
Sounds a bit odd to me.
