Hogan and Lever both in the coaches box and both made an appearance on roaming BT don't worry.

You don't really get great interviews by suprising players who are dead sore and want to relax. I think the classic desk in the rooms and have 2-3 players and maybe a special coach or CEO come on for an interview is better. Maybe have a 2min segment where BT goes and finds something interesting (like the rub down table as he calls it) and let him do it. Running through the rooms with a camera and cords and approaching people in the way he does leads to some cringy moments.

BT asked the lady who weighs everyone if she is the Rub down girl (great moment tbh), went into ice bath areas to interview a half naked hibbo and a kid (that sounded worse than it was) and had the very excited McDonald parents try and embarrass their kids on live TV.

    Couldn't agree more. He thinks he's an authority.

    Does anyone know who the boys were kissing on the cheek on their way into the rooms? I assumed it was one of the Mums, but I could be wrong

    Worth putting up with BT to have this sort of access to the players/rooms after a finals win.    The vibe in there is electric.

    Bonus points to Clayton Oliver for the pizz take of Brian.

     

    No putting up with, that's past.

    BT's been very good this year, and has somehow changed his attitudes. IMO.

    He's very listenable, this year.

     I find it interesting and entertaining, not rude.

    And it gives some other interviewers some vision time on telly.

    Interesting.

    Oh no. I think he's gone.

    I liked BT meeting Nevs parents. They deserve some sort of award for producing a son like him. 

    I also liked when Frosty was interviewed on the MFC podcast during the week. Sam was asked "who he most looked up to at the Club" It took him no thought at all to nominate Nev for not just what he did on the field but for his closeness to his family and his work in the indigenous community. Frost said that we all have 24 hours a day but Nev makes the most of every one. 

    BT plays the fool, and maybe one for all I know, but I do like the ‘inner access’ it provides mug punters like me.

    Craig Jennings summed up how I feel about BT perfectly. 

     

    Daniel Cross is a bulldogs legend, remember? His kid goes for the Dees. [censored] awesome.

    Just watched it now, what a champ Tom and Oscar’s dad is! Hibberd dropping the bomb, everyone was awesome.

    I’d wanted to see a Roaming Brian with us all year, now it just seems like a regular thing!

    Agree. Cringeworthy but nonetheless entertaining - was Clarrie playing stupid, or ...??

    OMG. Not there for BT’s segment.  ?

    Surely incontrovertible and final proof that he hates this club and just can’t wait to feel the buzz and excitement of a Ross Lyon forward “structure”!

    Roaming Brian two weeks in a row.  Awesome.  The access to players was sensational  

    We didn’t get the Friday nights this year. 

    Watch out 2019 fixtures for 4-5 Friday nights surely. We are the highest scoring entertainment team.

    Highest scoring ... lots of goals ... lots of ad breaks.

    Somewhere a Channel 7 exec is thoughtfully stroking his chin and asking his PA to get Gil on the line.

    Give bt credit. He complimented the club on its approach to providing full and open access as the best in the afl. As did caro and hutchy on monday night.

    Well done dees media team and management.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
