Career

Phelan's entry into television occurred in the late 1990s when he worked as a presenter for Sky Racing, focusing on betting advice. Between 2002 and 2006, he was the weeknight host of Network Ten's Sports Tonight. Subsequently, he moved to Foxtel, where he led several sports broadcasts such as NRL on Fox, Monday Night Football, Super Saturday coverage, and ESPN Sports Centre.

His radio experience encompasses hosting Sky Radio's Big Sports Breakfast, co-hosting a weekend sports program on Classic Rock with Wendell Sailor, and presenting 2GB's Sunday Session alongside Darryl Brohman.

In 2013, Phelan became the weekend sports presenter for Sydney's Seven News on the Seven Network. By April 2016, he shifted to presenting sports segments on Seven Morning News and delivering news updates on The Morning Show. Additionally, he co-hosted The Daily Edition with Sally Obermeder.

Phelan was honored with the 2005 Bachelor of the Year Award by Cleo Magazine.

In June 2020, following an assault allegation made by his girlfriend, Phelan was dismissed from the Seven Network. Original co-host Tom Williams returned to complete the remaining episodes of The Daily Edition, while Angela Cox and Sally Bowrey took over his news update duties on The Morning Show. The charges against Phelan were eventually dropped after "incontrovertible evidence" established his innocence.
