Essendon players on The Footy Show

[PressureCooker]

Seems everytime I switch on TFS there's one of our boys on the panel. Is this a deliberate ploy by the club to try and get some positive publicity? Coincidence? Or are we one of the only clubs left that lets our players waste their time on the show?

We're there seriously some maggots that booed him when he came out?

Booed Who??

 

[Kakkle]

If you got paid 10K to sit on a panel, would you?

 

[JDavey]

Booed Who??

Heppell was on last night.

I haven't watched TFS in a long time (it comes on very late in Sydney) but tuned in last night... Gary Lyon is very hateable was my only take out.

 

[FedEXFalls]

I think we just recruited some players who were already in the panel rotation (Cooney, Goddard).

 

[vaughany]

Defiently seems like the trio of Heppell, Watson and Goddard are the "face of the club" appearing on TV Shows/Radio left right and centre last 18 months.

The three of them are polished at dealing with the media whilst the rest of the team can focus on their footy

Hepp is an absolute natural with the hot missus to boot which is surprising in itself as she's been with him for years. (IE, she obviously hasn't targeted him once his profile exploded)

I feel quite the opposite. Yes there is Heppell who is a regular, and we recruited Goddard and Cooney. But i feel the club doesn't really get involved with tv shows whatsoever. I have never seen a TV show segment on any footy show that has involved Essendon, its like they just have closed doors.

Wouldn't mind Hird doing some interviews with On The Couch and Talking Footy.

what other shows are there that the club could get more involved with, the footy show is really the only one. all the other shows just get players on from the games the previous night, and since we have either played Sunday or Friday night it makes it hard to get on the Sunday footy shows...

there is plenty of stuff on the Essendon site anyway.

They never got involved with any segments on Before the Game back in the day. Never involved with 'behind the scenes' stuff like a lot of clubs do with channel 7. Things like Hughesys spray, never been at essendon, including when they did it on BTG. Some of the fox footy programs do segments with players or at the club, Essendon never have.

 

[Maddogm]

you mean apart from BJ having a regular gig on 360 and Bomber when he was an assistant and then Head Coach?

We were one of two clubs who had a dedicated TV show for it for the last 4 years...

What happened to them shows? I enjoyed The Hanger.

Think it was costing the clubs too much so moved more to our own website/youtube.
