Neil Mitchell and Eddie McGuire in another frosty on-air moment

There was no love lost between Neil Mitchell and Eddie McGuire as the pair once again engaged in a frosty on-air tit-for-tat.

Neil Mitchell and Eddie McGuire have attempted to break the ice during their first radio chat since their now infamous heated spat on air last month.

The outspoken pair traded barbs in a war of words three weeks ago over Collingwood bad boy Jordan De Goey.

Mitchell returned from a break with the pair’s first “ideas factory” segment on 3AW on Thursday morning showing there was still plenty of lingering tension.

“It’s good to be here by the way, I’m glad you haven’t banned me or anything like that,’’ McGuire said after Mitchell introduced him as ‘Eddie McGuire from Millionaire Hot Seat Channel 9’.

“Why do you keep saying that in your intros to me Neil, why do you do that, so condescending this morning. Mate you invited me to come onto the show, I’m happy to do so but don’t do it like that. Let’s be friends and talk about good ideas OK.”

Eddie McGuire wasn’t happy with Neil’s intro of him.

Mitchell replied: “Stop taking yourself so seriously Eddie. For heaven’s sake. Are we going to blue again, you’ve started on that tone … do we have to do this?”

McGuire continued: “At 8.25 this morning”.

“It was a bloody joke Eddie!” Mitchell replied.

“You’re well known as a stand up,’’ McGuire said.

Mitchell again: “You’ve still got that nasty streak to you haven’t you. I really thought this was going to be sensible.”

McGuire said: “Call me by my real term, come on swear at me.”

Mitchell was heard saying “God help us” as the pair continued on with the segment.

Last month McGuire slammed Mitchell’s take on the De Goey situation in which he labelled him a “Bali boofhead”.

During the strong exchange, which Mitchell admitted “crossed a line”, he called McGuire “a nasty bastard”.

McGuire said he had “sooked up” and accused Mitchell of lying by omission in asking him to come on the program because he didn’t want a debate, and instead said he wanted to discuss the broader issue of mental health.

McGuire said Mitchell had driven people to “very dark places” and implored Mitchell to “toughen up” when it comes to copping a return serve of criticism.

It seems there’s still a way to go to fully repairing the longstanding friction.
