Revealed: The star tipped to take over Ray Hadley as 2GB 'scrambles to fill his morning slot'


A former sports star has been tipped to replace Ray Hadley on 2GB after he announced he was hanging up his mic for good in December.

Sources said Hadley arrived at news channel's Sydney HQ for the covert chat after most of the broadcaster's staffers had already headed home for the day. He then spent more than an hour in deep conversation with the News Corp-owned network's chief executive, Paul Whittaker, and head of programs, Mark Calvert. Sources said Hadley's strong political views actually meant he had long been more in step with Sky News Australia's sensibilities than those of Nine and would be a natural fit for the network.
