This week on The Sports Wrap, things looked a little different behind the mics. With Dukie off living the dream and doing what so many West Aussies do—escaping to Bali for a couple of weeks—Simmo was joined by friend of the show Fred to keep the ball rolling. And while Dukie might have been sipping cocktails by the pool, back home the action didn’t stop.
Simmo and Fred took listeners through all the big moments from the weekend of sport, starting with Around the Grounds, where the boys broke down the latest results, upsets, and highlights across the AFL and NRL. Fred jumped right in with strong takes and plenty of banter, making sure Dukie’s chair wasn’t left empty in spirit.
Crunching Numbers made its return as the stats got dissected in true Sports Wrap style, giving a deeper look at the figures behind the games. Simon Says brought the laughs once again, adding that mix of humour and offbeat insight that fans have come to expect each week. And of course, the lads didn’t shy away from the EPL and NFL wrap-ups, with Simmo giving his sharp analysis on what’s happening in the world game and across the pond in the States.
Even with Dukie away, the energy was high, the debates were fiery, and the segments you love were all there. The Sports Wrap proves once again that no matter who’s in the co-host chair, it’s your home for sport, stats, laughs, and the occasional spray.
