Eamon Hallissey
Transplanted from Canterbury over 25 years ago and now firmly ensconced in Auckland, Eamon was once a promising sportsman, excelling at cricket, rugby and Gaelic football. A self-described couch commentator; age, diet and a dicky knee got in the way of his sports career, so he’s ensuring his sporting legend lives on from the comfort of the studio. A big advocate for grassroots sport, Eamon is a loyal supporter of Eden Rugby Club.
