How did we get half of On the Couch dedicated to a teams coach who doesn't play another game...?
We have to hear about all the terrible teams all year. From here on it should be finals related only basically.
Review yesterday's game and Friday night's game and that's it. Then onto the 4 finals.
360 is no better. Most of the show was taken up with more ad nauseum Essendon crap and coach interviews. I can't imagine being a supporter of clubs other than Geelong& Collingwood and giving even the slightest care to the same old drivel coaches blurt out for every interview.
There's a reason they get 2 standalone press conferences a week. It's so the fans and media get to hear what they have to say. There's no need to hear the same crap regurgitated again on Fox footy midweek.

Except that's not what happened, because Carlton v Collingwood was shown on 503, not 504.Wow what a finish. What emotions, the highest of highs for Collingwood, the put of despair for the blues. And now here's Bounce.
What actually happened is they had about one minute of studio-hosted post game from Garry Lyon then cut to a 30 minute pre-match show for an NRLW game, of all things.Except that's not what happened, because Carlton v Collingwood was shown on 503, not 504.
Yup. The 3.20pm game normally gets shafted for golf replays at 6.05pm, so a live NRLW game is a refreshing yet unnecessary change. I swear those ch7 games they cover on fox footy are pointless. They do like 20min of studio coverage over 3 hours, and barely talk about the game.What actually happened is they had about one minute of studio-hosted post game from Garry Lyon then cut to a 30 minute pre-match show for an NRLW game, of all things.
No chance, he’s poor and underpreparedOn the Couch. Lyon (for all his faults) offers decent analysis,
I actually blame the TV Show Friends. A bunch of mates sitting around on couches being cosy and having a laugh it was a smash it at the time! If you look at all these talk/panel shows that sit around on couches over the years talking sh!t and trying to be funny you can all trace it back to the mid 90's when Friends made it popular. Somehow TV producers after all these year still think it's an inviting and popular formula. frankly imo it's a tiresome easy and lazy production.
The 3.20pm Sunday game (which is a Ch7 game) is timed to run directly into Ch7's news. So at the end of the game the siren goes, Ch7 goes to news, and the game broadcast stops. Fox usually do a quick wrap-up, but with no further pictures or interviews being offered by the host broadcaster there's not much reason to stay on. Irrespective of who plays, and whether it's a 1 point thriller or a 50 point blow-out doesn't change the on-air window.What actually happened is they had about one minute of studio-hosted post game from Garry Lyon then cut to a 30 minute pre-match show for an NRLW game, of all things.
Uber Eats menualso what is on david king's laptop
someone needs to tell brown that they're all sitting next to each other and he doesnt have to yell all the time.Why are Brown & Reiwoldt always yelling at me when I watch Fox footy now...
Maybe Fox Footy is contractually required to cut away? Channel 7 would like to have a point of difference so that people watch their channel.Of course, the flogs at FoxFooty instead of staying with the Ch7 broadcast with the atmosphere and interviews after an amazing game, have chosen to cut the feed and go to Best on Ground.
Absolute bunch of dic*heads of the highest order.
By gosh I hope they lose the broadcasting rights.
FoxFooty do it regularly irrespective of whether the game is produced by them or Ch7 across the weekend.Maybe Fox Footy is contractually required to cut away? Channel 7 would like to have a point of difference so that people watch their channel.
Same here, I honestly can't recall the last time I watched the opening bounce for a regular Friday night match, sometimes due to other commitments but usually to avoid watching any of the hour long pre-match mostly excessive analysis waffle, in-between constant advertising and gambling promotions..!I dont care about post game, pre game etc. Its so cringe, i just watch the games. Whoever gets the rights just has to fix the commentary, not sure how much longer i can put up with the current standards
This probably won't be a popular comment, but the pre- and post-game coverage is much poorer this year without Eddie McGuire.Same here, I honestly can't recall the last time I watched the opening bounce for a regular Friday night match, sometimes due to other commitments but usually to avoid watching any of the hour long pre-match mostly excessive analysis waffle, in-between constant advertising and gambling promotions..!
And when the match is done, the TV is off if I'm at home and obviously no-one watches anything beyond the match at the pub.
Each to their own - but why should it take more than 10 minutes simply announcing the team line-ups, their recent history or form, the weather forecast, expected crowd, the pundits tips and if this is a milestone game for a player..?
No, sorry 1989, cant agree with you at that one.This probably won't be a popular comment, but the pre- and post-game coverage is much poorer this year without Eddie McGuire.
