  1. @newtaste According to an article in the Herald Sun last year, Marngrook was averaging 60k to 70k in three states, so it’s figures are closer to the SBS 2 Friday night soccer numbers than Thursday FC’s.

  2. Any sign of Barefoot Sports returning? NITV yanked it off air last year when they talked about Blake Ferguson and suggested that grog was a problem with Indigenous sportsmen.
