    I hear Robbo is being replaced with a mirror at Gerard’s request

    That way he can just talk to himself and thank himself for a great show

    It's a show I often watch .

      Robbo  ( aka a name that that starts with S and ends with o but is censored on this site ) is an illiterate dunce. 

    It was always  more enjoyable when The Chief or Jordan Lewis  or the part time dunny cleaner filled in for him.

    No loss.

    Robinson is an absolute Fool. Incredible he has held that job for so long. 
     

    Go away and never go near a Camera again

    Had some health issues of late, so I do wish him all the best with that moving forward. As far as his role on 360 goes, there’s no loss there. He could rarely string a coherent sentence together.

    About time, he's had some good moments but they have become rare. Fox is at a pretty critical juncture, if they continue pushing merde like mid week tackle etc, it has become to much of a circle jerk. Stopped looking fresh 2 years ago. At it's best 360 was must watch but really found less and less need this season. Front bar with it's gags, and the way they skewered the airlines on flights is actually more on pulse, despite the buffoonery.

    I hope his health is OK.  I wish him no grief.

    But how on earth the man was ever chief football reporter for the Hun and on 360 remains a mystery.

    The man is almost illiterate.

    Well apparently Ch7 are after Whateley so you might be in luck.

    What if there was a football panel show and no panel?

    You could have players calling in just to do kind of 'message back to earth' diary sessions.

    Or even better, get a shared Zoom call going with one player from every club and just see what happens.

    Unlike most other punters on here I’m bitterly disappointed Robbo might hang up the mic. 
     

    I found it strangely comforting to turn onto the only journo who had sunk more booze than me that night.

    Agree.

    And whilst they're at it add the producer who seems to think long, fast cut video sequences backed by an uber dramatic soundtrack is some sort of artistic genius.

    I have to say the Gawn segments on the MMM breakfast (I think I only watch on IG) play well, as does Daisy when he's not doing betting ads. Not nearly ad negative as the footy classified misery, or sanctimonious as 360 often is. I find myself watching most of them, anyone else?

    • NON-MFC: Round 12

      Round 12 kicks off with the Brisbane hosting Essendon at the Gabba as the Lions aim to solidify their top-two position against an injury-hit Bombers side seeking to maintain momentum after a win over Richmond. On Friday night it's a blockbuster at the G as the Magpies look to extend their top of the table winning streak while the Hawks strive to bounce back from a couple of recent defeats and stay in contention for the Top 4. On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
