I used to play poker with Dan Ginnane regularly while he was still at ESPN working on PTI Australia, well before he joined Fox as a commentator. He was the opposite.. He was a good, down to earth guy that was easy to talk to.. Also met heaps of footy players and jockeys that way.. Shannon Hegarty, the Walker brothers, Steve Menzies.. They were all really nice guys and didn't have much ego..
Brian McFadden (the boy band dude who used to be with Delta) was a complete fuckwit though. Thought he was king shit.. He couldn't play poker for shit so it was fun taking his money..
