I can't remember any show like this having a greater dichotomy in back to back guests than the Front Bar has had tonight, going from one of the most turgid interviews in sport in Cameron Smith (from the blood money tour), to one of the more likeable and charismatic sportspeople we've had in Pat Rafter.
Crikey! Rafter looks good for 50, but I suppose he's always looked young
They filmed in the morning, then would get on the beers after filming apparently
Yes the original show was, now it's filmed live as shown on TV.
Which Tigger poster on here is Mick?
Last straw for me tonight. I'm off Molloy for good. Won't watch anything he does again. I've had enough of him.

But you're ok with Mel as host? They've got that one wrong. Decent eye candy but she can't carry the show.
Anything in particular? I haven't watched it yet
I literally watched three mnutes of some show on youtube and wondered why she on there as doubt she would really know much about football. Think she from Sydney and more a soccer person so I doubt she knows much about football and much about the Aussie rules footy community.

They tried making Mel's Malcolm in the middle comment as some moment that blew the internet away but I haven't seen a single person mention it lol?
Rotating it around during the preseson. He will be back this week, same as Sam Pang.
That's just Mel McLaughlin - knowledgeable, but always sounds like she's mainlined Xanax before the light on the camera turns red.
Aside from Sam Pang, the true heroes of The Front Bar are the show's researchers. The archival footage they dig up every week - regardless of the guest or the sport - is exceptional. And the production is tight (a remarkable success considering the live filming and the booze).

First Aussie rule’s episode for the year last night. Guests were meh. Find Gil‘s smug responses annoying.
Thought Selwood was interesting when they showed him rugby throwing and mentioned ducking. I thought he looked a bit uncomfortable and then admitted that he had thrown the ball multiple times because he doesn’t get caught. Just confirms that to Joel the end justifies the means, including blatantly cheating.
All fine to get away with it on the field Joel but then don’t look hurt or be surprised when others call you on it. It has tainted his legacy, no matter how much he or Geelong supporters like to claim otherwise

Not like a bit of bogan aussie sport banter with beers in front of them isnt going to work.
Taking candy from a baby, low hanging fruit.
The first 10 secs is all I needed one time to flick it over.

She doesn't annoy the hell out of me like Molloy does.
Let's just say I've grown very tired of his brand of "humour".
Sticks Kernahan was a great guest.
Very funny and understated.

Sticks on last week, can I just say that he is a champion human, he and his brother David (Douza) are two of the best blokes you could ever want to meet. Many stories there, but just pure blokes blokes , and I’ll leave it at that.
The show sucks without Mick
Fitzy is good for a guest spot that’s it

Any show without Titus O'Reilly, Santo Cilauro or Glenn Robbins is a good one.
Titus is a perfect example of someone who can write good comedy but not perform it.
