FTA-TV Footy Classified

[Deathray]

Caro has somehow achieved even less credibility than I thought possible. If the original allegations against Martin were applied to a player from any other team she would still be demanding their permanent expulsion regardless of what evidence her 'sources' later supplied.

 

[freemo]

Caro gave her stock standard "this could have turned out so differently were Hird not so selfish" arrow (and turned against the players abit. She used to treat them like victims, "young men" etc), but aside from that...

Lone Wolf got a jab in about tanking, "nudge wink", but really, everyone is real soft on the AFL. Makes you think at nothing will change "integrity" wise and it will all soon be back to business as usual.

Clearly Gaz and Purple didn't know there'd be a show tonight, look at their hair! Summer shags in force.

 

[Mentallo]

Anybody got a link to tonight's ep?
When I left for work this arvo Foxtel was still showing that a movie was coming on after the cricket and although I recorded it in hope that it would record Footy Classified it didn't.

 

[Big Wilbur]

Got to say that after watching the Robbo train wreck on 360, Footy Classifieds was like a meeting of Mensa.

Might have misheard, but didn't Caro have a sly crack at Gaz for sporting a mullet just as they closed the show?

 

[voodooguru]

That she did.

Apparently Gary's had one too many sly cracks himself.

Are we really stuck with Damo Barrett now? Gary was an inveterate Old Boys/Players/Coaches/Footy Establishment fence sitter/apologiser but Damo's role is mostly wannabe iconoclast, a role which Jabba the Hutch fills with aplomb.

I say put Jabba in the chair and [if possible?] use Gary's dough to bring in three or four panelists in rotatation, with more guest interviewees.

I'm calling it though - Damo, through no inherent fault of his own, spells death to Assified.

I hope I'm wrong [again], or I wake up...

My guess is that if Barrett's on he won't have a lot of input. On the other Ch 9 stuff he does, he obviously just gives his "news" quickly, then ships off. I could be wrong.

Barrett and Hutchy on the same panel doesn't seem to make sense but I reckon is better than an ex player who fence sits.

As far as the guest interviews go, I reckon they are good 1 out of 2 to 3 shows.

Some of them are quite boring and stall the momentum of the show.

 

[voodooguru]

I agree with Reg User re: Damo appearing to be mainly a quick news/reporter type. He wants to be a journalist and he also took a couple hard-headed commentator/analyst positions last year, if we're lucky he's doing his homework right now.

I just can't see him working with Caro and Jabba. OT : I called for Matty before he got the gig. Keanu will play him in the movie.

Generally speaking, I like the interviews and the panel format suits interviews. [edit] Maybe keep them short and very sharp. They could format it like a game show. The Ten - ten questions in ten minutes and the panel gives out of 10 scores at the end. Maybe.

What I'd like to see is no DB, and a rotation of maybe four regular guest panelists. I wouldn't open with Bloody Jeff but he'd be in my rotation. He'd star as an inquisitor.

 

[Elite Master]

Damo has done full shows before to fill in for Jabba the Hutch, so I don't see why people think he won't do that on a full time basis.

 

[Bomberboyokay]

It's on tonight. I assume they'll talk about Four Corners. And make shitty jokes about each other's footy teams.

 

[Russian Demon]

God, I'm wasting my life watching. Time to have a hard look at myself.

EDIT: Oh god its Barrett!

 

[TradeDraft]

Has it became the Richmond Show

 

[TradeDraft]

Them blaming each other already started

 

[Russian Demon]

Mad Cow disease... I can't believe they showed that without the 10 zillion qualifying statements any academic would have prefaced it with.

 

[Oaktree]

Hutchy's such a w*nker, the hosting gig might have got to his head.

Happy with the other 3.

Lloyd: "here's Garry Lyons love child.."


Awks

 

[Elite Master]

The Footy Show and now Classified have lost a certain edge that Lyon brought to the show.

Become???

Classified yes, but Footy Show? The only edge that has are all Newman related.

 

[The Made Guy]

One too many "same same" journos are on the show now, made worse by Lloyd (the only non-journo) being fairly weak in expressing strong views.

The show needs Grant Thomas back.
