I suspect it’ll be more like 50% footy with 50% lame jokes and advertising 9’s upcoming shows

I'm not so sure, James Bracey and Phil Gould both do Six tackles with Gus podcast which has a harder edge on Football. I would be surprised if the show has the Beau Ryan element to it and maybe a bit of spin-off from the podcast.

James Bracey is not really a Paul Vautin/Matty Johns type host either and is more into serious sports journalism.

From what I saw tonight, could be called 'Virtually 100% Phil Gould'. I'm sure they'll work on the balance from other panel members.

Peter Beattie's mistake was bad, but his attempted smother reeked of arrogance. I realise people make mistakes, but a few howlers on the show:
1) News that Luke Keary is set to play in Roosters opening match
2) Round 1 score summary included Warriors 00 Sea Eagles 00

Did that f**kng idiot Beatie not even know the sharks?
Interesting. Dan Ginnane on Fox Sports News said the interview took place 2 weeks ago. Peter Beattie has just tweeted response:

This was me Saturday night with the Sharks’ coach. Yes I stuffed up the answer; just nervous in front of the great Phil Gould. Yeah I’m human. I had a mental blank. The price of doing the NRL & the Commonwealth Games at the same time !! Thanks Gus for having me on the show. #nrl

He just banged about loving the game. That is something you just know if that’s true.

Didn’t really give a shit that Smith didn’t know Cam as he never pretended to love the game.

If he delivers on good stuff then so what. But I’m betting he’s a full of shit pollie.

Putting aside the Beattie gaffe(he is a pollie after all)I liked it. Good to see a show based on proper league talk without the tinsel of poor comedy clogging up the content. Gus did have a lot to say BUT in that sort of environment he is well worth listening to.
It should only get better with the panel getting more time together.

Was good.

Strangely I hate everyone on that panel, except Ruan and Bracey is ok. The other 3 love the sound of their own voices a little too much but at least they're not boring i guess.
