Sams back for the footy

After being dropped from Triple M Melbourne's football commentary team under controversial circumstances a few years ago, and following his public resignation from MTR a month ago, Triple M have brought Sam Newman back to the fold for the 2012 season.

Sam will be a part of the friday night football coverage, and will be a regular guest on the Breakfast show.

It is a good move by Triple M. As a listener, your views on Sam are irrelevant. He gets talked about, and his content makes headlines.  For Triple M, even if Sam 'misbehaves' it is good for them. In Melbourne, Sam is the most 'controversial-est' broadcaster in football.
