Mark Geyer, the NSW State of Origin legend, was removed from his radio show in Sydney today. His Melbourne-based manager was in the city to try and meet with the star.
Two weeks ago, Southern Cross Austereo revealed that Mick Molloy would be returning to his old radio show in Melbourne to host it in 2025.
The statement released by Triple M didn’t address the future of “MG” on the radio station. Mark Geyer was a no-show when the breakfast show started at 7 this morning.
His co-hosts, Natarsha Belling, Mick Molloy, and Cat Lynch, made no reference to his absence.
Rex Morris, who has been the Triple M content director for the last 10 years, was recently let go by Southern Cross Austereo.
Brendan Annakin, who has been a daytime presenter for Triple M for the last 12 years, announced on his Instagram page that he was being made redundant.
He thanked his fans for their support. On his Facebook page, Queensland-based DJ Josh Olek said that he would be replacing Annakin on the “Triple M Afternoon Show.”
However, he added that it was “lame to celebrate” because it was the end of an era. Media personality Gus Worland also announced that he would be leaving the station.
In his statement, Worland thanked everyone who worked with him during his 16 years with Triple M. He also mentioned his current co-hosts Aaron Woods and Jude Bolton.
In his statement, he thanked the staff members who helped keep the shows running smoothly. In July, Triple M announced that comedian Marty Sheargold would be joining the station in 2025.
Also, Southern Cross Austereo’s programming executive Dave Cameron was spotted at the station’s studios. He is reportedly going to talk to Mark Geyer before he attends the ARIAs.
Since he joined Triple M in 2009, Geyer has been one of the longest-tenured presenters on the radio station.
Along the way, he has hosted breakfast shows with various celebrities such as Stuart MacGill, Jess Eva, Ray Warren, and Gus Worland.
According to the radio ratings released last week, the “triple m” breakfast show has gained a half a percent in the ratings compared to the “2Day FM” breakfast show.
The number of people listening to the “triple m” breakfast show has increased by about 20,000. Geyer was also recently acknowledged for his charitable works. In 2011, he held a football match to raise money for the victims of the Queensland floods.
Before he became a part of Triple M, Geyer was a representative rugby league player for the NSW Blues and Australia. In 1991, he scored a try as the Panthers defeated the Raiders to win the premiership.
