Thats great news i enjoy Dennis Cometti’s commentry, I dont mind Bruces his not as good as before but still ok. I still wonder who Seven will get the do the two saturday games which they will cover? I personally want Mathew Campbell and John Casey. I found John Casey’s commentry back in 2008 to be better them the idiots they have now at Fox. So if Seven were smart they would hire him, because i know Ten wont for the NBL coverage.
Id say Before the Game is the footy show I enjoy watching the most and I reckon the players prefer to go on this show than the FS.
Thanks for the link David. Much appreciated.
The AFL Footy Show is the Best AFL Show!!!!!!!! By Margins Away!!!!!!!
Pity Before the Game wasn’t recognised.
Why was the Footy Show repeated twice for most outstanding program?
Dennis Cometti, isn’t the best, he is right now the worst with bruce. i wonder who votes on these awards
Congrats to Dennnis. Now that’s centermetre perfect.
No award for the Marngrook Footy Show (ABC2)? Very disappointing, as its far superior to the dated format of the Ch9 Footy Show.
David, Have you got a link to these awards as I would like to view all the winners.
Cheers and thanks in anticipation,
Kathy
