Oh please.
I respect women very highly, just not their opinion on football

Apparently after seeing a pair when I was about 5 years old and turned to my mum and said "Them hula girls made my winkle go straight"
I still hear about it.

It was a mash of ifs and buts but nothing definite.

Na, without Sam the Footy Show wouldn't have a single viewer, he's the backbone of it, people used to watch it to see what he'll f*** up next.
I haven't watched an episode for over 10 years, I like watching footy shows for footy news and the team lists, not the rest of the sideshow they have going on.

Funny, people on Twitter / FB saying "Look at all these people who don't watch it commenting on how shit it is"
Well, I've never been to Ayers Rock, but I know it's there.

You and I know that about Sam but I don’t think the producers share the same thought.
I think they have reeled him in so far he’s almost had enough of it.

I wouldn't know any more, I just posted in an attempt to sound smart and it's too early for me to sneak off unnoticed yet.

yes it was a Thursday night staple viewing in most houses in the 90s and even into the early 00s
It really did need to spend a little more time on the teams/matches etc, and they didn't take themselves to seriously.
then they had panel changes, host changes and things seemed to go off the rails, with those issues plus the Fun Police and then The Front Bar came in to provide some competition. I haven't tuned in much over the last few years - it interferes with my dog punting, but its always there if you need something light and not think about it.
the thing is Sam, when he talks footy, can actually be really compelling to listen too, but he made himself out to be a certain character on the show and we never got a chance to hear his views etc.
the Front Bar have done a great job in basically copying the same format the Footy Show had at the start, and it works!!!

That’s because back then, it was the only football show on air. The news and reviews for the week were breaking on that show right then.
Now we have too many journo’s and a plethora of footy shows every night of the week, any news has already been discussed to death.
That’s why people won’t sit up and watch it anymore, we are spoilt for choice now.
