Sports Entertainment Network (SEN) has announced an exciting development for the SEN Tassie Breakfast show with the introduction of Tasmanian football icon Alastair Lynch as the new co-host alongside Brent Costelloe.

This change follows Tim Paine’s recent departure from the role, as he transitions to serve as the Head Coach of Australia A.

Expressing his enthusiasm for the position, Lynch, said: “I’m absolutely thrilled to be joining Brent and the SEN Tassie Breakfast team.”

“I’ll always be a passionate Tasmanian, so I’m looking forward to sharing the stories, celebrating the wins, and having a laugh with listeners each morning. Footy and all sports are such a big part of our culture in Tassie, and I can’t wait to dive into it with the passionate local community,” he said.

Acknowledging Lynch’s significance in Tasmanian sports, commercial manager at SEN James Sellar, said: “Alastair is a household name in Tasmanian sport and a natural fit for SEN Tassie Breakfast.”

“His experience, passion, and connection to the local community will bring a fresh energy to the show. We’re excited for what’s ahead and know listeners will love what Alastair brings to the mic,” Sellar added.

His achievements include All-Australian selections and spots in both the Fitzroy and Tasmanian Teams of the Century.
