I'd like to see Gawn concentrate on backing up last season rather than playing a character on a crumby expired tv show. 

Maybe, but we need marketable players to intice sponsors and the like. I didn't watch tFS, don't have any desire to, but we need to get Melbourne faces out there so we can get some more cash rolling in. 

Having said all that I predicted when I heard Hutchy was going to take the reigns that this could be it's last year in the current format. I despise Hutchy and his smug face, and he's not a funny larikan so can't keep up with any of the others. Sam will run rings around him which will just make things worse. 

If I were the ones in charge of programming I would start right now with designing a new format, scouting new hosts, new segments, and start doing market research on its viewers to determine what can stay and what can go. I actually don't mind Maddern, her only issue is she tries a bit too hard at times, I felt that Brayshaw stepping down might've been a chance to push Nathan Brown.

I actually watched it and with him on the show, interviews with Hogan, we had heaps of coverage for us which we need. We've been so largely irrelevant and mundane for so long, good to have a big personality like Gawn playing good footy and well loved by the general public.

Max is a great personality and good for the club, but he (or the club) needs to pull back now. Sometimes less is more.

 

I agree "Poita".  I watched Gawn and Newmans in car conversation while trying to eat !  Big mistake.

Haven't watched the show is years but the same as SEN and Wild World of Sports etc is some intelligent, but differing/dissenting voices. Actually have some challenging debate, not everyone wallowing around in the same trough.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
