The League Lounge (on Fox Sports)

[Brutus]

Any thoughts?

Seems a pretty random show thus far.

Very relaxed.

Brandy and James Matheson are having a big eye competition.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

For as good as player as he was, Brandy's comments always make him seem the full genius.

You never go the full genius............you hear me haynetrain!

 

[skeepe]

I can't see the point of doing this in front of an audience to be honest. Not too bad though.

 

[Tap Twist Snap]

I'm enjoying it so far. Needs some more segments mixed in though.

 

[Brutus]

Some Tony Trim action after the break.

 

[S.R.]

When Greg Alexander is the "expert" on a show, it's bound to be shyte.
He has nothing to offer.

Why is Jess Yates on there? She seems lost.

 

[Brutus]

I enjoyed Brandy's Origin legends story.

It's been ok.

 

[Dragon]

Enjoyed Brandys story about the legends game. Not a bad show

 

[STG-MACCA]

It's been ok, needs some work.

I am still watching but if there was something else worth watching I'd switch over.
Surely we can find a women who can talk rugby league with a bit more punch, and really why is James mathison involved?

In this format, you would almost be better served having a random fan sitting on the panel to offer another perspective, however they should go through a recruitment process to get on it, not just random selection.

Is this an attempt at the light hearted stylings of say "Before the Game"?

I have it recorded and won't be able to watch it for a couple of days.

 

[Danish]

Not liking the random blonde. Complete airhead who clearly knows nothing about league.

Why do TV stations continuously go with bimbos over knowledgeable women on sports shows?

 

[S.R.]

In this format, you would almost be better served having a random fan sitting on the panel to offer another perspective, however they should go through a recruitment process to get on it, not just random selection.

So you want a non random random?

 

[innsaneink]

Christ some people are never happy....thought it was good and Brandy is one of the better league commentators around....leaves his bias at home

Light & relaxed works well this time of the week

 

[El Diablo]

relaxed and was OK

i'll watch it again next week

 

[blake1979]

I was hoping they were going to have a similar set up to the AFL's show On the couch. I was pretty disappointed to be honest

 

[Brutus]

The mood of the show is perfect for the Sunday night timeslot.

I'll be back next week too.

Brandy, Brendan Cowell and Warren Smith go well together on it.

 

[Coaster]

I liked it.

Good show, more league talk the better imo

 

[El Diablo]

who would know anything about some AFL show about a couch :?

 

[Danish]

i didnt mind it, i kind of thought they might actually review the weekend's games at some point....

will keep watching because, frankly. its a show about league but i hope they increase the topical league content next week.

And piss the ditz off. No idea what demographic they are trying to appeal to with her.

 

[STG-MACCA]

So you want a non random random?

Exactly, but someone that can listen and speak intellectually. I hate seeing bogans on Footy shows that talk like they have smashed a dozen beers before the interview.

In other words, no souths fans and were good.
For the record you can exclude the skull too.
