Coodabeen Champions
What’s hotter than a footy pie? The Coodabeen Champions now traditional end-of-season live Father’s Day show of course!
Returning to Arts Centre Melbourne on Sunday, September 2, what better way to spoil dad than with an afternoon chock full of footy frivolity!
The Coodabeen’s Covey, Champs, Billy and Richo come together at their hallowed ground, Playhouse, for their fifth finals outing. They will serve up their trademark music, talkback and footy lexis in celebration of the beloved game and will be joined by a couple of handy inclusions in “role players” Torch and Young Andy.
First hitting the airwaves in 1981 on 3RRR, The Coodabeen Champions were the number one draft choice who actually lived up to the hype. As rookies, they broke new ground for sports coverage and almost 40 years on remain as popular as ever with their ABC Radio Melbourne program cementing them as a Melbourne institution.
