NRL Tactics on Thursdays does a pretty good job with this

Agreed.

Previously it was NRL on Fox that was the leading show and Tactics was a poor relation indeed. Since they merged Tactics with the NRL Team show they've actually created a fairly solid show that talks alot of football.

I'm not sure about anyone else, but all the betting odds being mentioned on TV all the time sickens me to the stomach. Seriously. Football is not just an excuse to gamble.

Agree with earlier comments that the new show failed to hold my attention for the whole duration. It's not really the lightening of the tone or Dell or similar ... it's just that these guys just aren't that interesting and mostly just say the some old stuff. Ryan Phelan is a cardboard cut-out. I don't think Dell is anywhere near as funny or cool as he thinks he is, but he is charismatic ... mostly I'm just sick of him relating EVERYTHING back to the Indigenous All-Stars game (we get it, you played in the game and apparently you think very highly of everyone who was selected in the Indigenous team). Daley is a fence-sitter. Freeman might actually be the most interesting of them, but he's a little bit of a nutter (and not just a put-on nutter ... kind of like a toned down Tommy Raudonikis).

The show has turned into sh*t. Bring back Warren Smith and to freshen it up a little with someone that isn't afraid to speak his mind, add Peter Tunks to the lineup and drop that joke Daley. I don't necessarily agree with Tunks half the time but that is the point, he will make it interesting and liven it up for fu*k sake. Fu*k these yes men off who love all the players and coaches. It’s so nauseating.

I'll give it a couple more weeks and if nothing changes, it will get the big flick.

I agree there with Tunks. I've seen a lot of his TV work from his pommy days and he was good.

He'd be great for a show like NRL on Fox, although they'd never hire him because he's very anti-news LTD, Gallop and co.

Oh well, their loss.
