The Footy Show 2012

[nqcowboy87]

yeah it was probabbly his best this year, but thats not saying much

 

[Coastbloke]

10 minutes of International Footy discussion..

Easily the best Ep of this season so far...

 

[El Diablo]

Slats seems to be settling in nicely now

 

[blacklock]

they actually talk football on the footyshow??? when did they do that? lol

the thursday footyshow is basically a poor watered down Hey Hey its Saturday.

An insult to Hey Hey

What was to second 5 in the bin about? Couldn't believe they had macnamara on and they were talking international footy for the first one, just after fatty said that origin has the best 34 players on earth playing in it.

Hey hey was the worst show in tv haha.

So were my eyes deceiving me or did Joey make that second attempt at goal. I quickly rewound it & double checked, pretty sure he did. I guess they didnt want to pay the $1000.

 

[El Diablo]

they said it went under the cross bar

That's what I also thought when I saw it.

the second 5 in the bin was basically a continuation of the first segment. McNamara was present again and so international footy was the discussion

Sorry boys dont care what you say. Having Slater there is rediculous. When he was a cricketer he always had a chip on his shoulder, and now seeing him everywhere on the tv drives me insane. Richie Benaud will be tossing in his sleep seeing fatty call the cricket. Just piss Slats Off and Bring Vossy BAck ...What did he do anyway..my 2 cents

 

[Mr_Raditch]

Thats why I double checked, looked like the ball was obscured by the cross bar, not the other way around.

I can't find the thread regarding the show "One Week at a Time" or whatever its called on One HD. (if anybody can, feel free to move this post)

Anyway, Joel Caine has just popped up on TVN this morning as a Sportsbet rep providing the odds and fluctuation info for the big day of racing ahead. Those sort of gigs don't pop up often and would be well paid and sort after.

Think it is an interesting appointment. He spoke very well, as he does on a Thursday night on One HD.

Nobody is ever going to agree with everything a panelist says on a footy show, but here is a clear example of an average player being given an opportunity on this type of program and in my view he does a pretty good job.

When are nine going to wake up to the fact that you can't train certain high profile players to be good commentators/panelists. You either have it or you don't.

Wish they would give the average player a living after footy, that may actually be suitable to do the job. Another guy that springs to mind is Michael Hodgson the ex Canberra and Canterbury forward. He has been on ABC Grandstand a number of times and is a very very impressive speaker. Give him a job ffs. Get rid of the likes of Lockyer and Tallis. They will never cut it.

Anyway, rant over.

Oink !

Oh and doesnt Bryan Fletcher look out of place amoungst those 4.

Also no AFL Footy Show on afterwards. The last couple of weeks they've instead shown Comedy Central Roasts

Because the AFL rounds have started on the Thursday the last couple weeks the show has been on tv on Wednesday. This week it's back to Thursday after the NRL footy show.
