The Rub: Best Bits

Early in the 2013 season, Spud Frawley came upon some mail that a certain team member - let's call him D. Barrett... actually that's too obvious, let's go with Damian B - had been on the receiving end of some hair straightening! Spud dropped the bomb early in the show and of course hell broke loose. ---- We're dropping a new (or old?) Classic Saturday Rub every Saturday and Wednesday all the way t...

On the last instalment of Bristle's Vault, we're revisiting one of the most extraordinary pieces of audio you'll hear - Brian Taylor's Footy Audition. The captains of each VFL side (as it was then) came into the 3UZ studio and sung a song for Brian's show. --- With the silly season now done, we're back to regularly scheduled programming this week - meaning that you'll get a Classic Saturday Rub ev...

A Friday Rub in the South Melbourne studios in April 2012 meant Damo and Duke were dropped from the first hour of the show, and while Luke Darcy took it well, a certain journo responded sookily... and didn't he cop it on Saturday! ---- We're dropping a new (or old?)

With the legal injunction against Bristle's Vault defeated, we played one of BT's most ambitious attempts at an interview yet - getting Jason "the Chief" Dunstall out of bed for a breakfast radio interview! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

The Bristle's Vault segment we ran regularly in 2017 got BT so rattled that he went to the remarkable lengths of taking out a legal injunction to stop more tapes being unearthed! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

On today's edition of Bristle's Vault, we delve into probably the most awkward in a series of incredibly awkward interviews - BT's now infamous chat with 16-year-old swimming Commonwealth Gold Medallist Hayley Lewis. --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

We're bringing in the new year with a bang - or more accurately, an icy splash! On today's Classic Saturday Rub we've surfaced our coverage of the first Big Freeze slide in 2015, when Garry Lyon, Brian Taylor, Sam Newman and Luke Darcy were amongst the sliders. James Brayshaw, Spud Frawley, Damian Barrett and Jay Clark were in the commentary box and called all the action as it happened - and in fu...

Today's edition of Bristle's Vault finds BT playing the role of Hard Hitting Brian with an interview with a man connected to Fitzroy in a tough time for the club. Hard Hitting Brian cops some hard hits in response to his line of questioning though, but got a few whacks of his own away - both on the radio and later on the field, as we found out! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we'...

In the 2013 finals, the Saturday Rub crew took submissions from the family asking for nominations for the inaugural All Triple M Team - until Gaz took over and more or less picked the team himself. The team wasn't picked on form, more about which players went about the Triple M way, were grouse to watch, or were just plain funny. ---- We're dropping a new (or old?) Classic Saturday Rub every Satur...

On this instalment of Bristle's Vault BT opens the lines on Valentine's Day to takes calls from people reaching out to those they love, and even introduces a song - Do Wah Diddy Diddy by Manfred Mann! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

In June 2015, Spud Frawley and Luke Darcy accused James Brayshaw of one of the most grave transgressions that could possibly be committed by a Triple M Footy caller - being caught on the green stuff. To make matters worse, there were further allegations levelled of being seen amongst the inner sanctum after a North Melbourne win. ---- We're dropping a new (or old?)

On today's instalment of Bristle's Vault, an interview with Shane Heal shows BT doesn't just drop the magic on grand final calls, before Aussie boxer Jeff Malcolm gets fed up with Brian's line of questioning and ditches the call! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

For Christmas Day we've gone back to October 2016 and to the grand final edition of the Saturday Rub live on site at the MCG - which just happens to be Spud Frawley's last ever appearance on the show. It's a classic too - Spud uncovers Damo's now infamous run in with Justin Leppitsch, he anoints his final Headwobbler of the Year, the Cool Breeze Chronicles has its last outing, Danny Southern tells...

After each one of the interviews that surfaced from the tapes that became Bristle's Vault, BT asked the celebrity on the other end of the line to record a voice over spruiking his show. The boys back in the studio collated the funniest ones for us - enjoy! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

June 6, 2015 wasn't one of Spud's better days - first he turned up to the wrong ground, then he copped it between the eyes for an article that had a real whiff of Me Me Me about it!  Naturally he turned it around the only way he knows how... a huge blow up! ---- We're dropping a new (or old?)

Today we're revisiting the most popular interview from Bristle's Vault - the famous chat with legendary Romanian gymnast Nadia Comăneci - or as BT calls her, "Nadia Comma-ninch"! --- With the silly season well and truly upon us, we're giving you a Christmas Bonus - we've opened Bristle's Vault!

After Tony Lockett was inducted into the Hall of Fame in early June 2015, Spud off-handedly guaranteed he could get Plugger on the Saturday Rub the next week. Three weeks of Spud's hapless attempts to get the reclusive Saints and Swans legend on the line got more and more hilarious, and when he finally came through everybody heard about it! ---- We're dropping a new (or old?)

Spud Frawley kicked off the 2011 season with a bang, picking his top 10 Headwobblers from the off-season.

In early May 2016 Spud Frawley gave Tony "Chompers" Jones a savage whack after copping a clip on the Hot Breakfast, and when Chompers went Spud with a comment in a news story a few weeks later, Spud couldn't resist going back for another dip. Little did he know Chompers was listening, and he rang in to give Spud Regis one of the all time touch ups! ---- We're dropping a new (or old?) Classic Satur...
