Farkin' 'ell.
Keep people on who understand & appreciate the game. Not some Gossip Queen.
The Akermanis bit was tedious beyond belief. And the Wolfman skit was barely funny, Williams is now a cartoon than a cult figure.
The animals fornicating was just rubbish. Wouldn't have happened if Packer was still around.
Weidler's the gossip queen.
This sort of stuff is natural progression. The game was sold off to a media company that has built its brand on titillation, soft-porn and innuendo. Now, the reporting of the game focusses on titillation, innuendo etc.
What did you expect?
I think the Footy Show needs a gay, black Stephen Hawkings-type with Gallop next to him saying "this is great for umm ahh News Limited ermm ahh sorry rugby league". The Vossy can interrupt them and say "prove you can't walk" while Fatty just rolls his eyes saying "she's alright". meanwhile, Gus can just loll back giving the impression this is all beneath him because he always knows better.
Maybe Matty Johns can rejoin the crew with a new character - Sharky who works at Bunnings. Can't hurt.
Wow, really? I thought the wolfy skit was HILLARIOUS!! I just wish I could find it on youtube or something..
He's so dreamy..
But - she was right. And she's had the guts to push forward with the story.Is that cow on again??
FMD the show was just getting good...Nah i will probably watch to see idf someone in the crowd starts making cow noises when the idiot opens her trap.
Nah f**k it.
Would you prefer rugby league was all about puff pieces from Danny Weidler - "I have it on good authority that the Eels will retain the blue and gold colours for at least the next 5 years".
Problem is we don't get enough puff pieces these days.
Sorry if this has been said before, but that "So you think you can play" segment is a rip off from the NRL on Fox show "Prp's Pentathlon', but alot worse!
I wanna see Kim Beazley for the Knights.
EDIT: Or Jen Hawins.
