Jack Watts panelist on The Footy Show tonight


The Chazz

Recommended Posts

Oh my god I always forget that The Footy Show sucks and just enjoy it for what it is!!

Then some randoms on a forum remind me that it is sexist dribble and then I just stop watching it.... Thank god people love mentioning that they don't like it so we all know and can now be further educated and grown up.

Looking forward to watching The Footy Show with the other thousands of people who do.

You like the show.

Others do not.

Their judgment is surely just as valuable as yours?

Let it go, and watch your show...

I dont generally watch it cos most of it is rubbish and we rarely have any mention however I thought cos we have our new coach and all that it might feature some Demon news and now, if tis true that Jack will be on, well I will tape it and watch it tomorrow.. its on too late here and some of us like our beauty sleep..

plus the added benefit of taping it is the rubbish can just be fast forwarded and only have the good bits..

I like the Footy Show. Not a serious take on footy (plenty of other shows exist for that), but fun nonetheless.

Yeah plus 1, it's a bit of fun, and they normally have some pretty decent exclusives or interviews for the serious footy nuts. I don't mind it

so why do Tiges get "Jumping" Jack, Deledio & Cotchin on it

why do Lions get Browny on it every 2nd week

why do the dogs get Barry Hall, Cooney, etc on it every couple of weeks

why do north get Boomer, petrie, swallow, etc

out of all the Melbourne clubs we are on it the least.. plus I dont see why us sucking should prevent our players being on a show?

if the argument was most of our players dont have personalities then I guess that is a fair enough..

Cooko, I personally think it hasn't been about our form on the field - it has been about our lack of players with personality that comes across on camera.

Bruce and Davey arent exactly extroverts.

Green and Moloney typify the term "wooden".

Sylvia is passable, but nothing special.

You wouldn't get much out of Jurrah in that environment.

That's not to say that they are in any way bad people.

We just unfortunately have had a period where our best players have not been gold media performers.

I think that will soon change.

I can't remember exactly what it was to be honest, but I do remember it mentioned around the time Beamer was on earlier this year - which had been the first time in a couple of years that there had been anyone on the panel, and someone mentioned in the thread on here that it was to do with DB.

I highly doubt that he'd get a say in whether players went on the show or not.

That is the way I will watch as well Deb.....

I don't normally watch it, as it is not on till midnight up here and I usually forget (plus I ignore the NRL version with all I have).

But I will put the IQ to work and enjoy whatever Jack has to say tomorrow!!!

And as well all the players mention have at various times made game winning performances.

We have had bugger all of those types.

We have had a captain this year that has struggled to justify his spot in the team

As well the MFC comes across to lots of outside fans as upper crust snobs.

But the most simple answer is we do not rate.

TV puts on people who draw a crowd.

The MFC is poor at that.

We start winning games and making the finals and watch the player

numbers rise on the show.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
