Axed - Before The Game!!!!

[class78]

So much better than the Footy Show. I liked how they had players like Nathan Grima on there who may not have been A-graders but were hilarious.

 

[Ashton Agar]

Great show but unfortunately was never going to get the ratings. After 10 lost the right and the introduction of Saturday Twilight Footy, no one was going to get around to watching it. I unfortunately didn't watch it this year, was a top quality show though!

 

[ManWithNoName]

Don't you all see what's happening at Ten? someone there is running it into the ground for a fire sale!!

 

[brisbane13]

What else do you expect from a show that had Molloy, Hughes and Lehmo on the panel. I am still yet to laugh at any of their jokes.

your still up set about Molloy's jokes about South Australia

 

[My North]

hope the show comes back on channel 7 or foxtel

 

[worbod]

One of the best footy themed shows we've ever had, behind World of Sport (I never saw League Teams).

 

[TyHawk]

And The Loud and Not Funny Bogan Show still exists? Not that I'm a huge fan of these type of shows but BTG was a lot better than the Not-Footy-Show!

 

[blaze036]

Hopefully moves to channel 7 as their sat night pregame

Also Channel 7 really need an AFL highlights show on Monday night (or sunday) which has highlights of all games, goes for an hour.

Would be fantastic !

Loved BTG caught it by accident 2 years ago whilst channel surfing in hospital. watched it every weekend since if I could catch it.

Like The Winners on Fox Footy/Fox Sports? That was a great show wish they would bring it back!

I find Mick Molloy very funny. Hughesy is pretty funny. Lehmo is so so. Andy Maher is a bit dull but he plays the straight man well, and he is a pretty good host tbh.

 

[Dont be a lemon]

It was a crap show.

 

[Freomaniac]

surprised by this. Again, once they lost the AFL rights, 10 was going to struggle.

 

[Byron_Clanger]

It was a crap show.

Agreed, I forgot it even existed with Foxtel having the rights to every AFL game, Channel 10..free to air TV for that matter just seems so irrelevant when it came to footy

The only thing I have continued watching since the change of rights is Game Day on Ch7.

 

[NorthernLights]

Funniest guest in the proud history of BTG!

 

[KAYNE]

I think one of the issues is that now with the 9 games the show is on while a game is being played. So that rules out Foxtel. Channel 7 have the news then start the pre game any way.

I didn't watch it a lot but enjoyed the lighter side of footy being shown. A Sunday night version may have been better like after the bounce.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

Wasn't always able to watch it because of the times it was on, but I liked it. I'm often mystified by people who say Mick Molloy isn't funny, he's hilarious. Pity it's gone, I much prefer it to the Footy Show which has become really tired, and some of the players they have on the panel are dullards.

 

[damochandler]

nevery really watched it a lot. never thought hughes has never been funny. samantha lane was just woeful

 

[The Sultan]

Didn't mind it, it was harmless not overly pretentious like other footy shows. Used to like watching eating fish and chips with the kids waiting for the Saturday night game to come on....

 

[Starburns_]

Seven could do a whole lot worse than to put a slightly re-worked version of this into their Saturday night coverage (their current pre-game setup is abysmal). Problem is they'd probably stack the show with their usual set of dickheads (such as Darcy).

 

[RodneyMaynard]

If they bring it back I hope they ditch Lemo. The man hasn't a funny bone in his body, and the way he laughs at his own unfunny 'jokes' sickens me.

Neroli was the best host the show had (better than Andy, better than Huddo, better than Pete Hellier, better than Sam).

 

[windyhill]

Good show, shit time slot

 

[richoatthedisco]

What else do you expect from a show that had Molloy, Hughes and Lehmo on the panel. I am still yet to laugh at any of their jokes.

And was hosted by that campaigner Maaaaah. Unwatchable.

 

[Ashton Agar]

While Before the Game was on I never really hated Maher. Now after seeing the BBL I could never watch a show with the Syd on it.
