I'm hoping this is the right thread for this but I was just thinking the other night when I heard the news break that Garry Lyon will be stepping down from the Footy Show, and I thought this could be there last chance to save the show from it's rapid downward spiral into extinction and if they completely revamped the line up it could actually return to being a really good show. A big Thursday night live on free to air footy show is a good concept but it has got really stale, so why don't they take this chance to start again. I'm assuming Brayshaw, Newman, Crawford and co have contracts in place for this season, so it might have to wait until next year but I would be all for getting rid of the lot, they've become boring, unfunny and rarely talk about 'actual footy'.
They need to get in some footy nerds that just want to talk football and then if they still want a comedy aspect to it get someone a lot funnier than Dave Hughes & Shane Crawford for starters.
I also think our very own Warren Tredrea would make a good panellist or even host and is already a member of the 9 team.
