Staff Writer

He has been part of the 2GB Continuous  Call Team  for 13 years.

But no more.

Steve Blocker Roach is gone. 

A 2GB spokesperson confirmed to RadioToday the news saying:

“We can confirm that the contract has been terminated and that there will be no further comment from the station.”

 

The news broke in Telegraph late this morning, that he been sacked from 2GB’s Continuous Call team following a bullying complaint from a younger male staff member.

The Telegraph revealed:

 “Roach was given his marching orders this morning, after station management spent almost two weeks investigating an incident inside the radio box at ANZ Stadium on Friday 15 August.” 

 

Steve apparently had a go at a younger staff member (words used “Berated”), before having a heated exchange with a fellow Contiguous Call Team member. It all went down minutes before 2GB’s coverage of the Bulldogs versus the Eels match.

The Telegraph reports Steve was stood down for that, but appeared on the Call team the next day.

The staff member put in a formal complaint and 2GB’s management have fully reviewed the matter.

 

Roach confirmed to the Telegraph he had been sacked this morning and accepted responsibility for “my part in the argument”,  

“I’ve loved my 13 years at the Continuous Call team calling football – that’s my passion.”, Steve Roach told the Telegraph.
