Mark Geyer signs three-year deal with 2GB
Rugby league legend Mark Geyer has found a new home at 2GB, after being dumped from Triple M late last year, after 17 years on air.
Geyer will join 2GB and Nine Radio on a three year deal from 2025, and will be on air daily on 2GB’s new Drive program, Sydney Now with Clinton Maynard, and will also feature weekly on The Continuous Call Team and Wide World of Sports programs.
Geyer said: “I’m pumped to be joining the team at 2GB and very grateful for the opportunity. Some of the biggest names in radio have gone through those 2GB corridors, so it’s humbling to be a part of such an established team. Let’s rip in!”
He hinted at interest from media companies during a Daily Telegraph interview last month, saying: “Breakfast radio is good money but it’s not about money, it’s about opportunity and now I have a lot of opportunities.
“Working so long at one radio station was fantastic and now I have a couple of nibbles, a couple of solid leads from other media outlets. It’s good to be wanted.”
2GB’s content manager, Luke Davis, said: “We’re so excited to welcome Mark Geyer to the 2GB and Nine Radio family! ‘MG’ is a league legend, an experienced media personality, a business owner, a voice of Western Sydney, and never short of an opinion.
“We’re looking forward to his unique insights each day on Sydney Now and across the NRL season – further-strengthening our top-rating Continuous Call Team line-up as we enter our 39th year on air.”
Geyer joins returning members of the Continuous Call Team in 2025, including Paul Gallen, Darryl ‘The Big Marn’ Brohman, Mark ‘Piggy’ Riddell, Josh Morris and host and lead commentator, Mark Levy.
