AFL greats evacuate commentary box after ‘disgraceful’ act on Triple M radio

Dale Thomas, Joe Montagna and Nathan Brown have evacuated a commentary box at the MCG after Geelong great Steve Johnson went rogue live on air.

The star-studded commentary quartet were previewing Sunday’s clash where the Demons caused an upset over the Suns.

However, the popular Sunday Rub show went off the rails when Johnson appeared to drop his guts in two different segments.

In footage shared by Triple M Footy on social media, Thomas was seen in open disgust as Johnson let rip for a second time.

Suns assistant coach Shaun Grigg was being interviewed when Thomas, Montagna and Brown appeared to be shocked by a smell inside their commentary box.

When the trio turned to a cheekily grinning Johnson, the accusations started flying, despite Johnson denying he supplied it.

“Stevie, you know what you’ve done. Sorry Grigga, Stevie’s just dropped one in the box and it stinks,” Montagna said.

“That was disgraceful.”

A horrified Thomas said: “Something’s crawled up your arse for three days”.

He went on to say: “That has gone so far up my nose it’s starting to hurt. That was pungent”.

When Johnson accused Brown, the Footy Show host replied: “I have never made a smell like that in my life”.

On a different segment later in the show, Johnson struck again.

With Thomas, Montagna and Brown catching a whiff, Thomas grimaced.

“There was a smirky look he gave me and I didn’t know what it was for,” he said live on air.

“And it’s because you dropped your guts again. It stinks.”

The trio then stormed off from their seats and headed to the back of the box.

When the show returned from a break, Johnson was the only member of the crew still present.

“Come over here boys. Let’s have a good chat about the Adelaide and Fremantle game,” Johnson said.

“I’ll apologise once you get down here. I apologise. I’ve cleared the room. Are you there Nath?”

Montagna said: “We were going to strike. That’s workplace bullying. It’s not safe in here at the moment.

“You better pull your head in. No more.”

Thomas also quipped: “Maybe take this segment off. Go to the rest room and sort yourself out.

“That’s what you were smiling about. He looked me dead in the eye and smiled.”

It was all business once the teams ran onto the ground.

In a tight contest, scores were locked up in the third quarter before the Demons raced away to lead by 27 points early in the final term.

Despite a spirited late fight from the Suns, they weren’t able to close the gap as Melbourne captured their third win of the season to move to 3-1.

The 16.13 (109) to 14.5 (89) victory launches the Demons into sixth spot on the ladder in a season where many predicted they would be in the lower trenches.

After losing multiple stars and bringing in a new coach, the club have reinvented themselves and are proving are handful in the early stages of the season.

The loss is the first of the year for the Suns who will look to bounce back next Saturday afternoon in a showdown against the Sydney Swans at Norwood Oval in Adelaide.

Melbourne will look to continue their winning ways when they tackle Essendon at Adelaide Oval.
