Just to clarify - I think there is lots to like about Footy Classified, but there will be a big hole without Carey and I can't think of anyone who could replace him to achieve the same sort of dynamic they are after. What a pity Kouta's gone to Gladiators. Mord is right – Nine and 3AW were well aware with what they were getting with Carey, Seven were aware too and passed over the opportunity to get him.

Ben Cussons might actually be a good replacement. He has the knowledge and it might be a way for him to re-establish himself. You know what. Ben Cussons might actually be a good replacement.

So Wayne Carey has a god-complex and issues with women. Consider me the most surprised man on planet Earth.

If only there’d been some sign, maybe a series of clues – however subtle – dropped over even several years to warn prospective employers as to his foibles – alas, there were none…

Quick show of hands – does anyone truly believe this is the last we’ll see of Carey on the TV?
Anyone? Anyone?!
