‘He’ll be missed’: Hudson departs SEN

Highly regarded football commentator Anthony Hudson has quit SEN after almost two decades at the radio station in order to focus on his TV commitments with Fox Footy.

A disappointed SEN chief Craig Hutchison paid tribute to Hudson, and said he would be missed.

“There are few that have played a bigger role and contributed as much to SEN as Anthony has, particularly in the early days where his behind-the-scenes work was critical to SEN’s survival,” Hutchison said.

“‘Huddo’ is much loved by our audience and our team, and is undoubtedly one of the great sports broadcasters of Australian sport, now and over history.

“While we are undoubtedly disappointed to lose Anthony and would have loved for him to remain as part of the SEN family, we are respectful of the challenges around his availability due to TV commitments.

“We wish him, his wife Eloise and family well with his next move that suits this availability. He’ll be missed.”

SEN will name a replacement for Hudson to partner Gerard Whateley on its Friday night AFL call “in due course”.
