Matty Johns Footy Show

As we know, the Matty Johns Footy Show starts tomorrow night.

One of the segments on the show is called "Home When You're Away" which I suppose runs off the show Home And Away.

This segment will be on the eels as every week a club is selected.

There is an add on the radio saying that Hindy & Guru are on the show.

I don't think I'll be watching. Matthew Johns make me cringe.

I am absolutely mistified why someone hasnt come up with the bright idea of providing a Footy Show dedicated to the footy (like the Sunday Footy Show) and not all that garbage they go on with. I personally find it about as entertaining as a toothache. More of the same garbage from Mat Johns is definately something we dont need.
If I wanted more of buffoons carrying on like absolute idiots Id listen to Ray Hadley and his Continuous Call Team.
Is it just me that finds all their rubbish intolerable?

No, it's not just you.

I was astounded on Sunday, after the eels game, when I got into the car and turned onto the station with the sole commercial rights to footy broadcasting (2GB), hoping to hear the remaining minutes of the Roosters/tigers broadcast. Pffftt, no such thing. All there was were 4 immature grown men waffling on to the egotistical sounds of their own voices about dribble.

I cannot believe that the NRL continue to cop the schlock that is supposedly 2GB's league coverage.
I'm not sure when the radio rights are up for renewal, but something has to be done, seriously.
Hence, I turned it straight onto the ABC, which was covering the game.

Matt Johns is a boring, uneducated w@nker.

He gets laughs out of interviewing the most geniused people he can find on the streets. He takes advantage of people and he deserved to lose his job at 9.

Regardless of the Eels segments, I won't be tuning in to watch that knob.

Agree with the majority. This seems to me like a sketch show with a footy theme moreso than anything else. Matt Johns humour and characters get old and unfunny very quickly.

I quite liked Matty's humour in the Sunday Footy Show environment - and was hoping that his show would be of the same vein.... When he's talking about footy, and throwing in a few jokes here and there, he's hilarious!

Except now we are going to get borderline offensive skits that ever so slightly involve Rugby League ....


*sigh*...

Well they say its going to be a 'family' show so we'll see what kind of so called humour is on it. By the looks of it little league will be talked about.

This will be like a fatal car crash, you don't want to look but you won't be able to help yourself. The ratings for week one will be promising but we'll see what happens in week 2. Knowing channel 7, they'll bump it back to later in the night or pull it off air altogether if the ratings are bad.

Why oh dear?

Webcke is actually a fairly credible bloke. If anything, he'll be the Sterlo of the show.

SW would be fine in a panel type show like they have on Fox. But as for light entertainment on prime time TV at a crucial timeslot ? I'm predicting a train wreck.
