The Nark is right 99.9% of the time, love it when he gives it to the Fat Quaddie.

No more Fat Quaddie on the BSB it seems. He has landed a big role with the AJC where he belongs.

Who'll be his replacement? Greg Hayes? I'd like to see Zorba go 5 days a week.

As most would know, the BSB often talk to golfer Paul Gow, who has had a go at Phil Mickelson on a number of occassions for being less than a good bloke.

Late last year, Paul Gow was in the BSB studio and in perhaps one of the most delicious ironies of all time (or at least BSB history), the Nark rang in to give to Paul Gow, saying "who are you to criticise a successful sports person like Phil Mickelson. What have you ever done - nothing - and you have the hide to give it to someone successful".

Classic! Go the Nark!

Adrian on the 1977 Schoolboy Rugby Union Tour:

Ray Warren, Peter Sterling, Mark Ella and Tony Melrose, both who went on the 1977 rugby union schoolboy tour with Lewis, are among a host of renowned judges who all agree that the King was the best.

I laughed at that too. It was very funny. Hypocritical - but funny.

Wouldnt mind Zorba but i doubt he will do it...the 3am wakeups plus his role @ Manly. Will be rough.
Hayes will get the gig if it becomes available and I hope to god it does become available.
Fat Chubby Quaddie is boring to listen to, especially when he says "Right" at the end of each sentence. Just because you say "Right" doesnt mean you are.
Good riddance if he does POQ

yep..the Nark is that part of all of us that we want to be but don't have the balls to go through with it, he's a unique characher that's for sure.

Adrian, the voice of imbos, was hammered tonight on 2UE by Gibbs.
Imbo Adrian decides to rattle off once again that Lee would not make the West Indies of the 80s and Gibbs had enough and told him that all he does is repeat the same crap.
Adrian calls him a goose and Gibbs hangs up on him.

Adrian should be banned from radio

He STILL rings up John Laws, and gives him hell. There are heaps of videos of the calls on YouTube. Just type in John Laws Norman and heaps of the calls will come up. I think "Norman" is hilarious.

Pretty sure it is this guy who has the following spiel on a website

"After a rewarding career in journalism that brought numerous industry awards, Adrian switched to real estate in 1995 where he has achieved even greater success"

The same bloke was so clued up that he listed his actual work email address in the first few articles published on this very website.
