I still don't understand why no one can make a decent show about footy.

Before the game was probably the closet for a period
Serious? TFS has proven longevity & has stood the test of time - clearly!

What's you problem really?

I think we can all assume the Gary Lyon has hosted his last Footy Show.

There is no way he will be able to cop the ridicule from his fellow hosts at any point in relation to what he has done to Billy.

The only logical replacement for Gary in order to keep up ratings is for Eddie to return to the chair.

I for one think it would be fantastic for the show... what do my fellow black and white brothers and sisters think?
Not sure what he did to Brownless, but never liked Lyon at any time...ever, even playing.
Without him, and fingers crossed the gormless idiots, idiot, Brayshaw, the show may be savable....
It has been horrifically crap since Eddie left.

Ed should only return behind the scenes as a Exec Producer or something to give them a revamp. I went off regularly watching 5+ years ago and only tune in if a big story or injury news has happened during the week. And each time it's like pulling teeth. Same ol' lines about the "best street talk ever", "funniest mail bag ever", "hey garry this looks like you", "hey Sam this looks like you" ..... ZZzzzzzzzzzz .......

what I'd like to see is more footy related stuff like extend the almost Footy Legends segment or setup kicking comps, hanging comps, speed comps, quick fire handball comps .... or dunno ..... anything that shows why AFL footballers are indeed AFL footballers and can do things normal people can't. How about deep diving into the coaches methods on and off field, during the game, match sims etc? Cover junior watch? The female league that is starting next year.

I guess I want something more tangible to actually the mechanics of footy - there's too many ferking stats!!!!

But if they do cover stats .... how about cover the history of game trends? Remind people of the seasons of past? and not just about 1 legend player how about great backlines, or forward lines..... and maybe open up the discussion on where the game will be in 2 yrs. 5 yrs, 10+yrs

There was never a need for 2 hosts to begin with. Just let Brayshaw do it on his own. Only downside to that is that he'll turn it into the North Melbourne show. Which would suck.

I reckon Before the Game was great because they derived their humour from the game itself. What was happening on and off the field.
Before the Game was the Worst Show.

Have Bloody Andy Maher(Can't Stand Him) and his Scum Fans alongside him with Hughsy and Sam Lame. Hughsy was not Funny and Sam just Perved at the Players.

The other Bloke was also not funny
