    I dunno, I really liked McWilliams, but I don't think Dunphy's without his charm.

    Much prefered McWilliams, even Dunphy sounds like a 2nd rate George Hook now. George is a legend :D

    i think they both resemble that noise thats made when you place the heals of your hands together place them over your wetted lips and blow really hard :D

    Yeah McWilliams was much better. Newstalk really shafted him over with his treatment. Guy got a show on RTE now at least... Dunphy is ok I guess newtalk figures have gone up 14k or soemthing for that show so I guess they are happy with that.

    All the same he is still a retard compared to McWilliams and I'm sure will be praising Roy Keane at every stage possible (Could care less about Keane... just annoying the way he seems to bring it up whenever he can!)

    Dunphy's mellowed out too much, he doesn't really attack any of the guests any more, he was much better on The Last Word. Maybe he's just not up for it that early after a night on the town.

    In fairness to Dunphy, at least he's dropped his toe-curlingly awful "it's time to go home if you're out, and time to go out if you're home" line. It was funny the first time I heard it. The humour quickly wore off.

    I used to listen to McWilliams for at least an hour a day (thank you, Dublin traffic) but now I find that I can't find anything good to listen to in the mornings. I miss him!
