The Front Bar returns for 2022 next week and Seven is cleverly kicking things off with a special three week “All Sports” season designed to appeal beyond their AFL audience.

Mick Molloy, Andy Maher and Sam Pang will also be joined by Mel McLaughlin fresh from her time at the Winter Olympics.

“I’ve been working on a spin-off of The Front Bar called The Back Bar. It’s basically Andy Maher playing the pokies,” Molloy said.

“While that would’ve been quality viewing, expanding to all sports for a few weeks has been nice, because after two years of lockdown, it’s been great to sit on the couch and watch different sports all day. I’ve missed that.”

Next week’s show is set to be a classic, with former Australian Grand Prix motorcycle road racing World Champion Mick Doohan stopping by, while one of Australia’s greatest ever basketball legends gets his Last Dance moment.

Ryan “Fitzy”’ Fitzgerald will also be on hand to catch up with a world-class Aussie tennis star at the top of her game.

8:45pm Wednesday on Seven.

  1. This is a fantastic idea. I live in NSW so don’t follow the AFL but have found myself the last few years tuning into The Front Bar and I know many others that do the same.
    The show attracts a broad audience beyond AFL fans. A Wide World of Sports comedy show in the making.
