Peter Tunks

BSB isn't too bad, I can't stand Slater's nasal droning and he has no idea outside of cricket, and TK is a fence sitter of the highest order which annoys me at times. He also spends too much time bringing up racing during a 3 hour timeslot dedicated to other sports, if he wants to talk about the gallops, maybe he should appear on the station during the other 21 hours of the day that spend broadcasting it. It's been much better with Jimmy Smith and TK while Slats is in England. They should punt him and keep Smith.

BSB is heaps better and more professional than 2SM. I read somewhere that Robbo is the producer which makes a lot of sense with the amount of dad rock they play during the broadcast. Hughes is still carrying on about the Coffs Harbour incident to this day.

Haven't listened to the BSB for ages. Can only imagine its a much better show without Richard Freedman on it. He was easily the biggest overbearing know all i've ever listened to. Had a bit of an ego relating to who his brother is too. Don't listen these days. My dad does. He thinks TK is an unbearable know all. Has he ever tipped a winner? He could stop a freight train.

Haven't listened to the show for over 10 years. I used to listen to it religiously when it was Graeme, Robbo, Jimmy Smith and Tex. Good to see the radio station is still as amateurish as they were back then. I remember their newsreaders sounded like they'd just come straight out of high school and didn't even pass standard English. And their hodgepodge of regular callers weren't much better. I remember Adrian. He always denied he was a Dogs fan despite religiously talking them up. Darren sounded like his head was screwed on at 180 degrees. Stereotypical Souths fan. And he loved calling in giving Sheffield Shield updates. There were others. The guy who use to say ''I say'' half a dozen times a call. You could play a drinking game to it. Craig i think his name was. Then there was Dave the Dragon who dumped the Dragons and became Dave the Panther.

Haven't listened to it since Tunks has been on, but he sounds like a grade A tosser.

LOL - i had forgotten about Craig - he couldn't go one sentence without at least 3 " i say" in it - wonder what happened to him. Robbo reminds me of a cartoon where that little pup is always trying to get the attention of the big dog. Yes Graham you know Graham oh Graham its like this Graham. Last night i heard some guy who rings in weekly with the results of some Newcastle swimming competition that has 4 teams and he makes out as though its big as the World Cup. Then there was the guy who rang in a weekly segment on motorbike racing. I'm sure this show was setup as a comedy show. Someone mentioned it went for 4 hours - but that includes 3 hours of ads, cuts to the news read by 12 yr olds who can't read and Robbos incessant crap music intros.

I don't mind the show apart from Tunks at timesAnd Robbo at all times. You're right about the squeaky little puppy, but he's okay when they start talking about women's sport and equal pay,
He must be completely whipped bloke at home, he freaks out whenever anyone says that women should only get equal pay when they play equal sets( tennis) or play off the same tee as blokes. Hell hes a snivelling pain, but it's funny listening to his whinging all the time

Yeah, when he gets that whine in his voice, and repeats "Graham " all the time, or his other favourite andwhinge, "you can't say "thaaaat".
I want to tear my radio out of my cars do throw it st him
 
I just realised that I was confusing peter tunks with peter peters from manly… I clearly have no idea who mr tunks is.
This thread "inspired" me to listen to talkin' sport for the first time this afternoon. It was better than I thought, though too many old dudes calling up wanting to tell their life story

I often confuse him with Matin Bella.
Can't remember if it was Tunks or Bella who got smashed in a tackle, got up and played the ball to the opposition team. Roy and HG dined out on it for years.

Tunks played for souths and the dogs, was a handy front rower…king of dad jokes now

You forgot the Panthers plus his time spent in the UK, He was only a mercenary , hardly club loyal.

And insanely jealous of the money that the players make now.

I'm having a rant…..
Peter Tunks just said on Talkin Sport that the Tigers were "the elephants graveyard". I am so sick of this hack giving to the Tigers. Maybe he should have a look at his own teams performance on and off the field. Every chance he gets. Yesterday he stated that every Tigers signing was being paid "massive overs". Based on what information Peter? He just talks rubbish. And while I'm ranting, he brings no intelligent discussion to any topic on Talkin Sport. He can hardly string two sentences together. Rant over.

Whos Peter Tunks? ill have to get out my footy cards from the late 80s to see a picture of him when he was slightly relevant. Sounds like a muppet on a muppet show.
