Lethal is about the only one I go out of my way to listen to.

Tom Morris must have some great friends.

So Ch7 thought Leigh was cooked. I actually thought he was done a couple of years ago. But he's come good

Channel Nine are smashing Channel Seven in footy talk shows and in breaking footy news.

Talking Footy was really good back in the day. You'd plan your weeknights around Talking Footy on Monday and The Footy Show on Thursday.

You've been on here for twenty years, so I'm guessing you're old enough to remember!

 

[Cleavy]

it was either early days of Talking Footy, or the Sunday AFL panel show.

Not game day, that was a flaming pile of dog turds

Is this being shown outside of Victoria?

It's in the TV Guide for Perth and Adelaide.

These days, you can set a location and stream the local version of Channel 7,9, 10 etc if you know your way around Kodi.

Leigh and Jimmy do tend to have their own opinions rather than just regurgitate what everyone else's is like many others in the media. Will be interesting to see how far Leigh will go with no-one reigning him in. And how Jimmy will go without Eddie on the podcast and footy classified cutting him off

 

[parano1a]

Just started on Channel 9 Melbourne.

How did Tom Morris make a TV return ? He has less charisma than Hotdogs from Big Brother.

The smarmy prick needs a punch in the face.

I watched it and switched it off halfway though. I would like to hear more of Jimmy and Leigh’s opinion but instead it was Tom bloody Morris who dominated the discourse.

Newsflash Tom if you are reading this thread -
WE DONT GIVE A **** WHAT YOUR OPINION IS
you aren’t equal in status to two hall of fame members. Stop giving us your stupid unqualified opinions. No one cares.

Original Talking Footy is what OTC ended up aping off right?

Leigh went hard early.

Interesting Channel 9 haven't put this show on their website.

 

[Demon in Hell]

Just changed the postcode in my profile to a Victorian one and can now watch this show on their website.

Thought the show was okay. For me, its watchability depends on how much footy I've consumed that weekend (fatigue) and/or if there is some big story coming out of the weekend.

 

[Bluelegs]

I've watched it now. It's a very Channel 9 version of First Crack which Morris was also on when it started.

Leigh and Bartel are good value, Morris is just as grating as ever. It's pretty amusing when he tries to create a controversy out of nothing like the Longmuir extension not being long enough only to get nothing back from the other two.

 

[windyhill]

Probably a step too far on the football show landscape. Lethal very good though,still has it.
