This past weekend we not only saw The Footy Show hold a live show in Alex’s name at the Newcastle Entertainment Centre, but also the Rise For Alex Round, held in an effort to gather donations for the recovery of inspirational Alex McKinnon. Alex, who is still in rehabilitation after sustaining a massive spinal injury during a round three game in Melbourne, was presented with a $300,000 cheque at half time of the game last Sunday on behalf of FOX Sports, The Telegraph and the Crown Resorts Foundation. This is only the beginning. Over the course of the weekend, through ticket sales, donations, arm bands and various other means, the Rise For Alex Foundation has raised an amazingly mind-blowing further total of $1.1 million thus far! The weekend also saw an overwhelming outpouring of emotional testimonials and verbal support for the NRL star. Names such as Wayne Bennett, Danny Buderus, Andrew Johns and Paul “The Chief” Harrigan. The NRL universe also was privileged to hear Aberdeen’s Darryl ‘Carrots’ Bowen’s song specifically written for Alex in dedication to the journey he has ahead of him with his medical rehabilitation. The Song Alex (Day by Day) was not only well received - the touching lyrics pierced the heart of everyone who listened. Alex was overwhelmed by the response from his fans and peers over the weekend. “It was pretty full on. I was trying to hold everything back, but at the end of the day I suppose my true self came out and there were a few tears but you can’t help that, can you?” he says of his reaction to the support shown to him. “I’m very overwhelmed by the support, I’m very thankful. “ To donate to the Rise For Alex Fund or for more information, head to the website at https://riseforalex.org.au Images: [Front cover] Alex McKinnon.

  • Ray Hadley and Bob Fulton to Finish Full-Time Roles with the Continuous Call Team
    RAY HADLEY AND BOB FULTON TO FINISH FULL-TIME ROLES WITH THE CONTINUOUS CALL TEAM January 31, 2020 Ray Hadley and Bob Fulton have announced they will step back from their full-time roles with the Continuous Call Team on 2GB to allow the next generation of broadcasters to take the lead. Hadley, a Commercial Radio Australia Hall of Fame inductee, is a founding member of the team which started in 1987. Fulton, one of rugby league’s Immortals, has been working with Hadley and the team for 32 of the 33 years the Continuous Call Team has broadcast. Ray Hadley said: “I have worked either six or seven days a week for most of the past 33 years and it is now time that the young men and women who already do most of the heavy lifting are given their chance. “Bob Fulton is one of my dearest friends and he has helped guide me for the best part of my career. We have a long-standing personal agreement that we will finish our full-time roles with the Continuous Call Team together.” From 2020, Hadley and Fulton will consult and advise the Continuous Call Team, while Hadley will continue to call State of Origin games and the NRL Grand Final. Hadley is contracted to Nine Radio for a further five years and will continue to present his top-rating morning program, which is heard on 2GB, 4BC and network stations around Australia. “Ray Hadley and Bob Fulton have been institutions not only of the Continuous Call Team, but of Australian radio, for more than three decades,” said Tom Malone, Nine’s Managing Director – Radio.
