The Grill Team gives Matty an almighty send-off
As hard as it is to imagine The Grill Team without Matty Johns, that’s the scenario facing listeners after today.
Bringing much more than just excellent sporting knowledge, Matty transformed into a great all-rounder as he spent eight years waking Sydney up with his jokes, characters and great yarns.
His final show this morning saw a call and a guest appearance from Triple M Sydney content director Jamie Angel, and calls from Hugh Jackman and Ray Hadley.
Gus also gifted Matty a seat from the soon-to-be-demolished Sydney Football Stadium, where he played many games in his NRL career.
Sydney’s Polish Club were the final band to perform for Live At The Grill for 2019.
Matty also gave a heart-felt farewell to his co-hosts Gus & Pagey, whilst also shouting out the man who hired him; Craig Bruce.
Matty Has A Heart To Heart With Gus & Pagey
It's Matty Johns Final Show on The Grill Team and to start the show, he wanted to speak from the heart to the boys in the studio.Listen to the Final Show Of Matty Johns on The Grill Team here: http://bit.ly/2QC1OSd

It marks a transformative two-years for The Grill Team, after it lost Mark ‘MG’ Geyer at the end of last year, though he remained with the network on The Rush Hour.
Triple M also put together a lovely video tribute with some of Matty’s best moments, which you can see below:
I hope Lawrence Mooney is the one replacing Matty Johns for the Triple M Sydney breakfast show “The Grill Team”! The Moonman is one of the few talents on Australian radio that can replace Matty and still make the Triple M Sydney breakfast show funny and entertaining in 2019 and beyond!
A lot of fuss for a show that rates 6%
THERE WILL BE NEW BREAKFAST PROGRAM ION TRIPLEM SYDNEY NEXT YEAR . CHANNEL 9 AND FAIRGAX MEDIA HAVE MERGED MERANING THOSE FRIM 2MMM’S GRILL TEAM MAY WELL END UP AT MACQUARIE SPORTSV RADIO 954
Chris Page is the only talented one left, he needs to move on from MMM. Gus is the clown sidekick that gets made fun of, does eating contests etc for attention so will find it a bit tougher to get the next gig.
