SEN SA welcome new Breakfast team

Sports Entertainment Network (SEN) has unveiled a new SEN SA Breakfast with Adelaide Crows legend Mark Bickley and presenter Jarrod Walsh.

Kicking off on Tuesday, February 14, Bickley and Walsh will reconnect to become the newest faces on the SEN SA 1629am dial, setting the day’s sporting agenda with all the news and views from Tuesday – Thursday each week.

“I’m really excited to join SEN SA and return to radio in a full-time capacity with this amazing opportunity,” said Bickley.

“I’m looking forward to reuniting with Jarrod – he is such a well credentialled professional. His all-around knowledge of Australian sport is incredible, and I can’t wait to talk sport with him and our audience every day.” 

Bickley is a two-time AFL Premiership captain, an AFL Life Member and an inductee of both the Australian Football Hall of Fame and the South Australian Football Hall of Fame. 

Following his retirement in 2003, he was an Assistant Coach for the Crows for six seasons while also enjoying a decorated media career spanning radio and television.

Jarrod Walsh is ready to share his love of South Australia on the airwaves and connect with the people of the southern state through their common passion for sport.

“Sport is my life. My connection with the South Australian and National sports communities is so important to me, and to be presented with the opportunity to talk sport every morning with the passionate SEN SA listeners is so exciting. Even better, to do it with Bicks whom I have so much respect for as a person and share so many common values and goals – it’s literally a dream job,” said Walsh.

“We have worked together before and bring the best out in one another – which means we can get straight into it! As soon as we iron out some of his hideous Dad jokes, it will be seamless. I can’t wait to get started on a platform that caters for everyone.” 

Walsh boasts a 16-year radio career and hosting portfolio for local sporting clubs such as the Port Adelaide Football Club, Adelaide 36ers and Adelaide United. In addition, Walsh presents for national organisations such as Cricket Australia, Basketball Australia and Football Australia.

Kane Cornes can still be heard on Mondays and Fridays as part of SEN Breakfast.

Absolute great signing, Have always thought Jarod Walsh was severely underutilized at Nova. He has worked extremely hard to build a strong profile and brand in SA. Will be interesting to see him go from being an Anchor to creating/engaging in content but sure he will be fine. Bickley is quite bland but knowledgeable so the 2 should work quite well together.
