Does anyone watch this show on ESPN? PTI stands for "Pardon The Interruption". It's an Aussie version of an American sports show [what's new???] and they line-up current affairs of sports and give themselves 60 sec to discuss each topic.

I like it because it is a bit different from other sports shows. You gotta love Sam Kekovich. :thumbsu:

Eh, it gets annoying at times, since all they do is shout over each other. Barwick is an absolute tool. See his plan for RL SoO tonight? Play it on a Friday and have regular matches over the weekend, with players available? Two matches in two days, what?

American version is much better.

I like the US PTI a lot, but the Australian version is unwatchable. Kekovich is a clown.

If they had stuck to the format and got two newspaper journos who knew their stuff inside and out, it might have worked. As it is the program is a joke.

agreed PLSC

around the horn would be great with all the different sports, and then we could get a perspective from WA, SA, QLD and VIC/NSW

who would be on it you reckon?

I think Kekovich is a very smart guy. But he plays the whole loud mouth part too much. He reminds me a bit of Sam Newman, but without the juvenile jokes.

i just wish they would do it on monday so we don't miss an episode of the US show, which is infinitely better than the australian version.

But yeah, around the horn is a better show.
