Warwick Capper dumped by Brendan Fevola’s radio show for second time

He hit the headlines last week after being silenced during a stint on Fox FM’s Fifi, Fev and Byron. And now, Warwick Capper has again fallen victim to the dump button, this time after taking aim at Fev’s controversial footy career.

Fox FM stars Fifi Box, Brendan Fevola and Byron Cooke have again been forced to censor Warwick Capper during a live interview for the second time in five days.

The trio invited the former footy bad boy on their breakfast radio show on Monday morning to extend an olive branch after he was initially hit with the “dump button” last Wednesday.

After that incident, Capper fired up, telling Confidentialhis mouth-off had actually helped the popular program.

“I got their ratings up because they’re f---ing boring p---s,” he said.

“Fev never kicked 100 goals in one season, he choked, I didn’t. And he choked again when he interviewed me on the radio.”

On the show today, Box cited Capper’s comments, and noted: “It looks like we’re having a feud with Wazza. I don’t know where this came from, and I hope this isn’t the case.”

Asked if the p-word in his remarks related to a “sharp object or a cat,” Capper replied: “Sharp object.”

He repeated his 100-goal gibe, to which Fevola replied: “I kicked 300 more goals than you, but that’s okay.”

“You played for three more years, I know,” Capper quipped back.

In an attempt to quell the drama, Box told her guest there were still no hard feelings.

“We love our friendship with you, we’ve celebrated you on the show. Are we good?”

She then offered Capper a role on the show as a movie reviewer, “as an olive branch because we don’t want to fall out with you and we cant have you calling us that name out in public.”

“We want to be friends,” Box added.

Capper said his first review should be the new Bad Boys film, because it would remind him of the time he was “sponsored by Porsche” before claiming he was now sponsored by Ferrari.

“No, you’re not. He’s not,” Cooke clarified.

“Yes I am, don’t be jealous, you b----es,” Capper quipped back.

He went on to declare a love of Fifi’s “stage name,” which led to another swift dumping by Cooke for his follow up remarks.

“I’ve had to dump him again,” Cooke said.

“What did he say? You dumped him and now you won’t put him back on?” Box asked.

“Of course I won’t. It was deeply offensive. It was in relation to the anatomy and it wasn’t appropriate,” her co-host said.

“I think we have to reassess whether Warwick will have his segment.”

“We’ll have his segment because we’re not boring,” Fevola said.

The latest Capper cut-off followed a similar incident last Wednesday.

He appeared on the radio show last week to spruik an Ultra Tune campaign he recently shot with Baywatch star Pamela Anderson.

“She’s lost a few kilos,” Capper said.

“She looks good in the swimsuit, I look good in the gold shorts. We shared the same trailer … let me say there was plenty of silicon.”

Fevola then asked Capper about his friendship with troubled Hollywood star Charlie Sheen.

“There were more lines than Falls Creek,” Capper said cryptically.

Fevola responded: “Press dump,” meaning Capper’s comments were erased from the live broadcast.

Cooke chimed in: “I can never understand what (Capper) says, but Fev who speaks fluent Warwick Capper … apparently he said something offensive, and I’ve had to dump him.”

“It’s not offensive, but it shouldn’t be on air,” Fevola said.

Box laughed: “Well done, Waz. We’ve scared him off.”

Seconds later, Capper resurfaced, and without missing a beat, reframed his answer about Sheen. “It was fantastic,” Capper said. “We know that.”
