The Footy Show's 2019 format revealed (and other Nine AFL stuff)

[SuperSteele22]

Eddie McGuire announced on Triple M this morning that The Footy Show Grand Final Edition will air on the evening of Wednesday 25 September from 8.30pm, in order to avoid a clash with The Front Bar on Thursday.
The live show will start at 7.00pm at Rod Laver Arena, but will air on delay after The Block.

Wise move. Front Bar would take them to the cleaners if they had it on the same night.

Perhaps. The Grand Final Footy Show has out rated The Grand Final version of TFB the last two years.

Damo cracked it and walked out after the panel was giving it to him.

Wonder if they'll get Jason Dunstall on for the big farewell show. He was an integral part of the shows early success

 

[JohnZ]

Looking on ticketek and there's still plenty of seats in the lower bowl for sale (at least 10 in every section). Upper bowl not for sale at all.

Going to be quite EJ whitten-esque on the night I think.

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

Should of gone with a smaller venue. Half empty rod laver arena isn't going to look good on TV. Or maybe there won't be any crowd shots.

 

[Bombermania]

You don't do the dirty behind your best friend's back and expect no blow back to happen.

Bill was the biggest problem on The Footy Show and thus is being looked after more.

EFA

But I did agree with the part about Lyon getting blow back for his actions.

Trevor Marmalade has been confirmed for the Grand Final show.

Trevor Marmalade has been confirmed for the Grand Final show.

Pretty sure Trev's been locked in for a while now.

 

[Shell]

Yeah he's on the promo now.

I think I'll tune in tomorrow night, for old time's sake.

 

[ApplecrossWC]

Does anyone know where I can purchase a footy show "baggy blue" hat and the recommended retail price? TIA

 

[parano1a]

Tonight's the night - last ever show.

I hope JB pops up. I was too young for the Eddie era so my footy show experience was Garry and JB as hosts. Gary won't be there obviously but I hope JB at least makes a cameo.

I can i was 14, 1994. No one expected it to last as long as it did- was so good back then.

I hope tonight can be a good send off it really does deserve

 

[TigerTime_89]

Looks full.

 

[Shell]

No pre record intro?!

Bullshit guise

 

[Shell]

Lmao ur kidding

 

[Shell]

Bec late withdrawal

 

[Orange Agent]

no wonder it got axed, jokes are terrible, hosts are dinosaurs.

 

[Shell]

Wow what an opening. Ffs who the hell organized this

 

[deedog2]

This is an absolute disaster...

 

[Morgan3]

I forgot how bad the footy show was, what a crap start so far.

 

[Biggy_Boy]

I forgot how bad the footy show was, what a crap start so far.

Certainly its last several years were poor. There's a reason it got axed.

 

[TheExtractorFactor]

This Marmalade is cringe. Just have him on the end of the panel, he’s a one liner man not a crisp 5 minutes operator.
