Why are they filming AFL Insider on the set of Tron?

Got better as they went along, but still not sold.

Also mischievous by Robbo at the end, mentioning 'player' and 'drugs'. You can guess which rumor will spread like wild fire over the next few hours. Should have just taken his own advice and been honest and said it was a VFL player.

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

Getting Foxtel installed on Thursday and in HD How's the Footy channel going? What sort of shows are on ect? If someone doesn't mind telling me

Me too, can't wait!

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

Agreed, but i watched it yesterday for some analysis, and was treated to the 4 stooges for at least 15 mins before realising no serious footy content was on the menu.

Watching Frawley and the Pig do their thing is entertaining, but like Crawford continually cross dressing, can become tedious.

If you were looking for football analysis then you were watching the wrong show. Not sure why you'd be looking for analysis from ATB anyway, it's like complaining that The Footy Show isn't giving any analysis.

On 360 tonight in Mcveigh's interview he said, "you know" 100+ times.

Seriously couldn't concentrate on anything else he said.

To be fair to the bloke there was probably a great deal of distraction behind him at the function and he probably heard half of the words in each question he was asked.

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

Needs more replays of older games, footy flash-backs (even the ones on 7two) or classic games from the past. Dead set, had enough of those 9 NAB Cup games from the weekend - espeically RICH v NM v HAW, been on about 1000000 times. Anything to break the cycle of them mixed with 360, OTC and Insider end-on-end.

Other than that, great channel

Agreed. Rhett, if we BF posters pile a list of games, any chance you could see if they could be played at any time?

As henness said, so ****ing sick of the RICH VS NM VS HAW and IQ'ed it thinking they wouldn't show it the following day.

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

Mr Budda Bing
You're welcome to create a list if you wish for me to pass on.
Of course I can't guarantee that the games will be broadcast.

I think the replaying of the NAB Cup is to highlight the current coverage of the channel - with its current commentators / HD broadcast signal etc.

Obviously as we move towards the main season there will be more games to replay

yeah I agree it was a horrible interview. You'd think the swans would name a Captain who has a bit of personality on the TV rather than walking piece of toast

Yeah, he didn't seem particularly talkative. It's like he's gone through some horrible off field experience in the last 6 months or something...

If that was an issue for him then he shouldn't be representing his club on the TV. We all have had horrible experiences in our lives and while I am sorry for his loss the fact you mention it makes you look like nothing but a troll

Not really, given half the interview was them asking him about it. Perfectly relevant point.

League Teams. This is a bit of a joke.

Surely they would have been able to afford BT if they got rid of Brereton, Shaw and Russell.

Brereton hosting League Teams is a joke. C'mon Huddo, do us all a favour and put your hand up.

 

[Burzum]

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

Yeah, I don't get how Brereton got the opportunity to host a show.

 

[bombers007]

As much as I hate Radar is he doing any of the footy? I see his mug on the soccer show thought he may have been doing that till the footy kicked in anyone know?

Me too. HD is amazing quality. Much better than HD on FTA! Gunna love this season!

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

what the hell is the thinking behind brereton hosting league teams,

i understand the thinking behind it because he loves the sound of his own voice, but i don't.

 

[nobbyiscool]

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

as soon as i saw who was on that show i turned it off.

could there be a more annoying, self indulgent line up than dermott, parkin and shaw?

2 minutes was enough for me, i won't be watching it again.

 

[Jef Costello]

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

switched off also

Re: FOXTEL Football Broadcast Thread

I know many opposition fans hate Moons but he's a great guy to have in the media IMO.

I've never had an issue with him before, and absolutely loved him on 360 tonight.

On that topic, thought both panellists tonight were brilliant. Means they've got everything right then, or so it would seem. Wasn't too keen of Sewell and Murphy on Tuesday, but I'm sure they'll grow into it. I definitely had some concerns that they wouldn't be able to stretch 360 out over four nights, but it seems so far that they've planned it out brilliantly.
