Sam Newman said, “I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am about coming back to Triple M – so, I won't try to”.

With other newcomers Wayne Carey, Dennis Cometti and Wayne Schwass - Newman will join Triple M stalwarts James Brayshaw, Garry Lyon, Jason Dunstall, Danny Frawley, Luke Darcy, Dr Peter Larkins, Mark Ricciuto, Michael Christian, Warren Tredrea, Hamish McLachlan, Billy Brownless, Nathan Brown and more - to enhance Triple M’s position as the number one football station for anyone with a pulse.
