    They seem to be tucking them away without any advertising or a good timeslot (which has now been given to Bob). Why?

    FTA-TV Open Mike

    I don't think people find him fascinating necessarily. They find the fact that a guy who presents like you're average 2010s stoner drop-kick from your local footy club (looks and personality) made it big in the regimented professional world of modern AFL. He subverts people's expectations of...

    FTA-TV Foxtel’s “The Merge”

    Fair enough, too. You would expect the league could have done more, but that wasn't the way things were done at the time, and they were actively trying to achieve a merger of Victorian clubs.

    FTA-TV Foxtel’s “The Merge”

    Pretty fair and honest assessment I thought. Oakley gets painted as the villain, but charged with the same duties in the same scenario, I doubt that too many would have done a whole lot differently than he did over the course of his tenure as league supremo. Still have NFI why the island of...

    How does Garry Lyon get to take top billing in On The Couch?

    His personal conduct aside, I like Garry Lyon as a commentator and analyst, and think he's great to listen to when he offers serious opinion and tactical discussion. I can see why Lyon is promoted and positioned as the top guy, too. He's got the knowledge, and articulates it better than most...

    Perhaps you can explain where you get that idea in the first place.

    "I think that's... I find that really fascinating... 'Cos I find all coaches fascinating, except when they give us cliches... and talk... talk crap." Praise be to Him.

    "When the whips were cracking, there was only one team (Geelong) cracking the whips. The other team (West Coast) was gettin' hit with it." ""Look at the character of Carlton", that's what we'd be saying. But because they lose, people want to say "Ahhh Carlton again!", but it was more than that...

    AFL 360....VFL 360

    I don't think 360 is intended to be a game review/preview show. There's plenty of other shows that do that, but 360 largely exists to discuss the stories and scandals and implications of XYZ result.

    AFL 360....VFL 360

    10 of the 18 teams are based in Victoria, so it kind of makes sense for the majority of coverage to be about Victorian teams, especially if there's a story or scandal there.

    Played some of the greediest, goal-hungry, "look at me" footy ever in his last year at the Dogs (2003), where they won just three games. Rarely passed the ball, rarely tackled, rarely won his own footy, rarely left the forward fifty.

    James Brayshaw rumoured to join Saturday Night Footy this year

    I've really liked Brayshaw on commentary so far. Has just called the game for the most part, without the boy's club silliness. Much more palatable than Brian Taylor's usual antics.

    FTA-TV Open Mike

    Fair enough. Sometimes you forget that there was other pathways into the league back then. Interesting to note that Lord and Brisbane's "other" top selection in the 1992 National Draft (Nathan Chapman, selected with the #2 Pick) both eventually played for Hawthorn.

    What claim did you have to him? Brisbane selected him as a 17-year-old with the #4 pick in the 1992 National Draft.

    They should ask Mackie how he managed to be a men's AFL player for 15 years with the body of a 12-year-old girl, somehow appearing to avoid the weight room his entire career.

    FTA-TV Fox Footy's 'History Month'

    Probably because it's been played to death, and is supremely overrated as a "tight" game. Revisionist history would have people believe it was a titanic back-and-forth struggle all day, but Hawthorn were comfortably winning the actual football contest for most of the match, up by 6+ goals at...
