FTA-TV Offsiders - 9/2/2014

[Dont be a lemon]

If you prefer sports discussion without unfunny, irrelevant in-jokes and fawning interviews with a token player you might like this show. Much AFL talk during the season.

ABC1 Sunday 10am

 

[Bluelegs]

Did they talk about footy at all this week?

 

[Johnny92]

Its a miserable show with miserable people

 

[thejester]

It occasionally features Caroline Wilson and Roy Masters

EFA

Disappointed Barry has gone but don't mind Underwood in this role and like the addition of Waleed Aly to the stable.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Francis Leech is a very important person.

Just ask him.

 

[04 Durif]

Best sports show on fta by a fair margin

 

[Primetime Pricey]

Francis Leech is a very important person.

Just ask him.

Cannot stand the bloke.

 

[Kram]

It's a decent show.

 

[RodneyMaynard]

Can't stand Francis, but like Gerard, Gideon, Kelly, John (Harms) and Roy can be good for a laugh (at rather than with). I only like Caro when Roy's on the same panel because she busts his balls about AFL dominance/crowds.

 

[Uncle_Leo]

Francis I used to think was okay.

Then I started following him on Twitter, what a self indulgent piece of crap he is. Then when he went to ABC he went over the edge.

He is the worst kind of hipster. One that thinks he is better than other hipsters.

 

[Hodgepodge]

Leach is a terrible football commentator (A-league), but otherwise I don't mind him.

 

[Mr Eagle]

Roy Masters likes being a professional troll, but when he keeps away from the AFL v NRL stuff he's good value.

 

[Father Jack]

Roy is hilarious, especially when on his high horse.

 

[Papa G]

Can't stand Francis, but like Gerard, Gideon, Kelly, John (Harms) and Roy can be good for a laugh (at rather than with). I only like Caro when Roy's on the same panel because she busts his balls about AFL dominance/crowds.

Hopefully he brings out the cream woolen turtle neck again this winter.

 

[thejester]

Disappointed John Stanley didn't get more of run at it this week. Easily the best rugby person they've got.

 

[brisbane13]

Best sports show on fta by a fair margin

its ok, but when roy masters isn't on the show

 

[harmesy 37]

It is a soccer lovefest show.

In the summer season they would have 15 minutes of soccer and about 5 minutes of cricket - rarely showing the big bash league- perhaps because the big bash was too popular?

Too much racing highlights as well. I like it when Roy Masters is on, his passion for league is amusing.

The ABC has an agenda in everything they produce in order of importance:

a) they dislike the Liberal Party
b) promote greens inner-city type issues that have no relevance to the general population.
c) promote anything anti-tony abbott..surely we get that he is the anti-christ by now? surely that message has sunk in. The fact that he spends one week in an aboriginal community and has GENUINE interest instead of fawning, big-speech interest in Aboriginal affairs is of no importance.
c) promote soccer...that is why they have at least 2 soccer people on the show every week - Leech and posti, and whateley and etc, and they even report on the w-league in the news. the crowds figure is about 20 people, but it is better to report on that than swimming, footy, rugby or any other sport for that matter.

Woah! Take that Offsiders.

The irony of your name too...

Hopefully he brings out the cream woolen turtle neck again this winter.

Leave the man alone. He was brought up in a strict religious household.

whately = soccer?

perhaps you could provide your run down on what should be reported and minute allocation.

 

[Father Jack]

If you're only a fan of one sport then this show isn't for you.

 

[Mr Eagle]

whately = soccer?

Maybe, if Black Caviar was playing...
