i certainly see were you all are coming from... But i'll stick to my guns.

I find after doing selection on a thursday night, especially after the real difficult ones, it's great to come home and not really have to think a great deal and have a few chuckles....

and i actually like sam, gaz and JB... Yep... i'm not even trolling... :D

I would much prefer Before the Game over an hour long intro by BT and Darcy.

especially when its a game that isnt even shown, like when they would have the intro to richmond collingwood or something, then show the crows/power game instead

BT is the biggest dickhead of any of them. even more than sam newman. there, i said it...

Wowee!

BT was ten times the caller when he was with Fox footy, when he moved to seven his ego expanded immensely - he also has a tendency to talk down to other commentators.

Absolutely. I enjoyed seeing the lighter side of the footy from Before The Game, The Footy Show (Thursday nights only) & The Marngrook Footy Show.

i reckon it's on par now. Rush home on thursdays from selection to see it. Popular viewing in my household.


100% with you I love the footy show.

And if you actually listen to what Sam Newman says he is a highly intelligent man.

The footy show isn't about stats and facts like a 360 or league teams it's more of a light hearted piss take you need to take the show for what it is either way a hell of a lot better than before the bounce!

Still, what was it that Essendon was actually guilty of other than being the target of overblown media hype?

Actually I watch neither of them due to work, Hockey or being at a Football game. About time BTG got axed most annoying show on TV. The footy show has gotten stale IMO and you need either Brayshaw or Lyon not both and I would rather have JB than Gaz hosting it.

No way. Can't stand Brayshaw & he's not even a football personality. Lyon would be the best option . But it's completely past its use-by date now IMO
