Allen McLaughlin's saluting those around him as he's thrust into the spotlight.
 
The former Radio Sport rugby league and cricket commentator has been named a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to sports broadcasting in the Queen's Birthday Honours list.
 
He said his close family and colleagues are just as deserving - particularly his wife who's had to put up with him watching hours of television. He also mentioned the work of techs and commentators he worked with who were brilliant at their jobs.
He joined Radio Sport to discuss the honour, the changes in radio over the years and the highlights of his career.
