Gerard Whateley commits to SEN long term

SEN has announced high profile sports broadcaster Gerard Whateley has signed on for another three years with the network.

The contract extension ensures Whateley will remain on the SEN airwaves until at least 2028.

Since joining SEN in 2018, Whateley has been the centrepiece of the network’s broadcast team and has attracted a solid following with his award-winning program ‘Whateley’.

The show has won the Best Radio Program title at the Australian Football Media Awards five times in its six years on air.

“Gerard is one of a kind in the sports broadcasting world,” says SEN CEO Craig Hutchison.

“He is incredibly respected by his audiences and the sporting world.”

In addition to hosting his flagship daily program, Whateley will remain SEN’s Chief Sports Caller. He has called the greatest sporting events on the calendar, including the AFL Grand Final, Melbourne Cup, Olympic Games, Test Cricket and the NFL Super Bowl.

“I’m thrilled to make another long-term commitment with SEN. I’ve never been more confident in the direction and ambition of the business and treasure my place in that,” Whateley says.
