Simon Hill & Mark Bosnich to spearhead SEN’s FIFA World Cup 2026 coverage

Two of Australia’s leading football voices – Simon Hill and Mark Bosnich – will headline SEN’s 2026 FIFA World Cup coverage, calling Socceroos matches live and in-venue.

The announcement comes as the station marks 50 days to go until one of the biggest events on the world sporting calendar kicks off in North America.

Hill and Bosnich will call all three of Australia’s group matches live, broadcasting from Vancouver, Seattle and Santa Clara.

Across SEN’s FIFA World Cup 2026 coverage throughout Australia and New Zealand, the pair will be joined by Archie Thompson, Adam Peacock, Brenton Speed and Jordan Kounelis, who’ll provide commentary and expert analysis throughout the tournament.

Peacock – SEN 1170am’s Afternoon host – will also be on the ground in North America, broadcasting his program live from the United States and Canada while providing regular updates and content across SEN’s broader network.

Across the 39‑day tournament, SEN will broadcast up to 49 matches, with coverage available across the SEN, SENTrack, SENTurf, SEN Fanatic and Sport Nation (NZ) networks.

Beyond live match calls, SEN’s football programs Gloves Off with Bozza and Arvos with Adam Peacock will air live from Canada and the United States across the opening month of the World Cup.

SEN will also produce a daily one‑hour program, The Global Game, airing immediately after each matchday’s coverage and featuring analysis from the day’s commentary teams.

Hill said he’s thrilled to be a part of the biggest tournament in world sport as a part of the SEN commentary team.

“The World Cup is the pinnacle of the game, and to be calling Australia’s matches live on the world’s biggest stage is always special.”

“SEN’s commitment to football coverage continues to grow, and I’m looking forward to bringing listeners close to the action from these incredible venues.”

SEN Chief Executive Craig Hutchison said “The FIFA World Cup is one of the biggest sporting events on the planet, and SEN is proud to deliver wall‑to‑wall coverage with the best football voices in the country.”

“Our listeners can expect authoritative calls, sharp analysis and unparalleled access across the tournament, whether they’re tuning in at home or on the move.”

The FIFA World Cup 2026 commences on Thursday 11 June, with matches hosted across Canada, the United States and Mexico.
