I already miss Eddie...

[SouthSwans]

This is really bad, and it's only up to the first ad break...

 

[wez10000]

We all miss you Edward, Bigfooty misses you

Are you kidding?!! After giving up on the show 7 years ago this is like a breath of fresh air.

 

[Shell]

Please Come Back Ed... Please Please Please...

Please!

i'm in perth
is it pretty bad? Maybe they're just a bit nervous?

You gave up the show 7 years ago, so you dont really have any basis for comparison do you?

It hasnt the atmosphere at the moment, but we'll see...

 

[JuddyisGod]

i used to watch it just to see what Eddie would do that would annoy me that week. He's one of those guys i hate to watch, but couldn't not watch.

 

[bucksisbest]

Atmosphere is weird along with a number of other things...
Newman's sly digs at Robson are the only good thing so far , he is better value to the show than I ever gave him credit for.

Well Garry Lyon is just depressing me. My opinion, he just aint host material for this show. And not sold on the two host thing either.

They also did a pathetic song "Ben", by the Jackson 5, dedicated to one Ben Cousins.. was quite stupid..

And Trevs not exactly on fire..

Pray it gets better. I love this show and have watched it from day one, 1994!

 

[gandaal]

The show is ten times better then it was last season. The stale feeling of the old footy show is gone.

Double thumbs up

Yeah, Gary Lyon was you would tell. It is his first appearance though. He has big shoes to fill mate.

 

[Stiffy_18]

JB is a nervous wreck. The whole show lacks that biy of "oomf"!!!!!!

 

[bresker]

There were times when Eddie bored me, but at least he never embarrassed me. I'm hiding behind the sofa. This is making me cringe for the poor bastards hosting this debacle. It's like a car crash in slow motion.

Footy Show RIP 29/3/06.

 

[roostersgal4eva]

whats the matter...dont like not having victorian bias....

its been great so far - cya eddie...dont hit the door on you way out!!!!

 

[PHX]

They're rusty. Without Ed it's gonna be strange for Trev and Sam. They were pretty bad early but they seem to be improving as the show goes on.

Well I have the "basis for comparison" of what caused me to stop watching the show 7 years ago and I believe what I'm seeing tonight is better than I saw then.

Disussion about the teams seems a lot more serious this year, they got hirdy to name who was under the pump at west coast and st kilda, gardiner and goddard where his responses

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie

 

[eddiesmith]

Lyon has always been boring, doesnt suit the show and JB looks out of place

Boring

But of course the anti Eddie morons will claim its the greatest show ever no matter who was hosting as long as it aint Eddie

I am sure there are 100 other people out there who would a better job than Lyon

Of course she cant read this but if you honestly believe with lyon at the helm it will stop being a pro Victorian show you have NFI roostergal

Always knew Brown and Crawf were gay...
