Yeah true, would still be pretty popular though you'd think, wouldn't be too many people that watch all games each round

Would cheap as chips to produce though. I would watch a highlights show like that. The EPL ones are great in that regard

It's only a rare occasion most would watch the replay from start to finish.

We've had some hum-dinger games this season where I've just earmarked the last 5 or 10 minutes of them to watch.

I'm waiting to watch the arse end of the GWS win on the weekend, I watched Freo break Richmond's heart the week before, how demoralising for consecutive weeks.

I for one would sit and watch a 5 or 6 minute highlight reel from each game over the weekend, show wrapped up in an hour and fully packed with game.

This Tegen Higginbottam or whatever her name is gives me the shits. Dunno why but find her so annoying.

Don't watch the Bounce a heap, but every now and then will tune in if I'm still craving a footy fix by the end of the round (plus Spud makes me laugh sometimes) - But her "turn it up" segment, where she finishes each play with an "absolutely" call makes me want to smash the TV in.

Is Tegan IanBotham the weird looking chick that was sitting there like a Hannibal Lector yesterday on that thing that was on before the Melbourne match?

Not sure, but she has a head like a pug (apologies to pugs) and Foxtel obviously rates her .. Mike Sheehan's daughter gives me the shits too. Just to prove Im not being sexist, Dwayne Russell is still my no.1 most annoying, but his position is well and truly under threat.

Yep Dwaynes call of GWS/Carlton as an "EPIC" was a bit OTT...Carlton ended up winning cause they made less mistakes than GWS

I had it on but wasn't really paying much attention, I thought the game was gonna start much earlier and the remote was on the other lounge so I just pushed through it.

She just basically sat there like a bobble-head from what I had seen and I don't recall her having any input.

She tries to be bubbly but comes across as awkward. She's especially awkward when doing Turn It Up and I agree, her absolutely call is cringeworthy.

Which in turn, therefore was 'epic'. :D

Hehehe, my 8 yo said to me "is that our best win ever dad"? I had to quell his enthusiasm somewhat by saying "ahh, it was a good win, but not our best mate".

Na, it was a scrap. 10 goals to 9 under the roof isn't what I'd class an epic. We have these little wins every now and again, so we'll take em.

To keep this on track, Tegan annoys me but I can always put up with commentary or shows I choose to watch if they play a bit role. I choose to watch the Bounce because there isn't a lot of light hearted stuff and Jason does a great job. Danny's a knob.

Dwayne's a good caller overall but the 'bends it back' when we have a shot from behind the goal and it goes dead straight ...."bending, bending....." shut up d'brain!

BT's segment in the rooms after the games surely has to be the most cringeworthy tv going around. Why does Ch 7 have to drag the telecast on for so long afterward??

the whole bounce show is forced most of the time. they arent exactly given good material to work with.

she is pretty annoying but its par for the course on that show. would be much better if they had a lot more segments to rotate through

I miss my Foxtel... while I agree with some of the sentiments here re the bounce, it's good Sunday evening, give your brain a break television.
