    Do they sit on the same coach each week, or do they rotate coaches?

    It's rotation through the man-on-man obsessed ones I'm sure.

    Hardly ever able to catch On the Couch, so can't really comment on topic.

    And who woould be the most comfortable? Dean Laidley would have been all hard and bony. Malthouse would be prickly. Clarko would be dangerous. Choco would be noisy. Balmey would have been nice and comfy.

    Nope don't agree. Before the Game is my favourite. It seems to be the players favourite as well. Anyway just my opinion.

    Voted by who?

    AFL Media Association's awards last night where Fox Sports' On The Couch, featuring Herald Sun chief football writer Mike Sheahan and Herald Sun columnists Gerard Healy and James Hird, was named best program on television. This notification came from the Herald Sun today.

    Definately the best footy show on TV, enjoy watching this every week - Footy Classified has turned into a puff peice that has more ads than substance and is now my most hated footy related show, despite being headed by Lyon. Footy show is good entertainment, as is Before the Game, but On the Couch for pure substance alone is the best show going around.

    this question should have been phrased in good call bad call format.

    as for the topic at hand, they are all about the same. on everyone show there is someone who you want to punch repeatedly in the head.

    I know a lot of people don't like it, but I still like watching The Footy Show above everything else. It still makes me laugh and I enjoy watching it. That and Before The Game. I don't usually watch Footy Classified because I can't stand Hutchy. Biggest tool going around.

    Before the Bounce... Friday nights on fox sports... best footy show on tv by a long way... Dunstall, Spud, a rotating Journo and Damien Fleming... They analyse the game, have some good banter, and they have some great flashbacks to days gone by... Not to mention the Yesterday's Heroes Challenge...

    i recon the footy show is the funniest, followed by before the bounce, then Sunday footy show. I've been getting into one week at a time, but i still think sunday footy show is the best

    I reckon I've watched On The Couch every week for the past five years. That and The Back Page are my two favourite sports-related programmes and I never miss them. Quality. Healy is good, Hird's ok, and Sheehan is a guru on all things football. Wish it went for more than the 45 minutes + ads though. Dees get about 10 minutes per year! But still the best footy show on TV.

    I agree- better tha the footy show Sam is a bloody disgrace- how he gets 3MILLION A YEAR BEATS ME- Should give half to the MFC. His performance last night was pathetic.

    He only gets that much because people love to hate him, but still watch. If you don't like him, don't watch it. I don't, purely because of Sam.

    I reckon On the Couch is the best Football show on TV in terms of facts and solid info and has been made better with the departure of Walls.

    If you want stupidity with a little news, info and review, you can't go past Bung, Spud and Co on Friday night with Before the Bounce.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
