Shame, that these grown-up high-profile men can't seem to control their urges to help themselves, eh!?
Sams done some stupid stuff, but he wouldnt be getting romantically involved with her.
I do see him exploiting her for TV and radio ratings however.
Yes agree about the stupid stuff, but I dont think it is exploiting her for ratings.
Regular listeners of MTR will know the following:
About 3 months ago Sam invited Duthie to contact him and he said he'd take her out and 'talk to her about life issues" etc.
He broadcast the invitation a few times.
Then about a month ago, for about a week Sam was mentioning how he had some information that would embarrass the AFL regarding the Ricky Nixon saga, implying that Nixon was in fact the victim.
Then Sam went all quiet, until now.
It seems much more likely that he didn't want to publicise it.
After hearing the podcast Sam sounds completely different to his jovial character from the Footy Show.
