I hope than Marngrook goes back to the NITV channel where it started, now that NITV is going free to air.

I'm sure it will be resurrected elsewhere. IMHO it was far more entertaining and interesting than many of the so-called "mainstream" footy shows.
I started with nothing and I've got most of it left!

Re: now that is really bad news
This stinks! There needs to be public backlash against this decision. This was by far the best footy show on TV!

Re: now that is really bad news
HELLO CHANNEL 7 !!!!!
None of there thursday footy shows have done any good , so why not take this on !
with conditions of course
don't change it , It is obviously done cheaply , so leave it alone . if they over produce it they'll only F it up !
It would be a win for 7 cos the ch 9 show couldn't knock it as this would be seen as rascist !

Re: now that is really bad news
The Marngrook Footy Show was the only show I watched on the tired old Auntie ABC. I found it to be as refreshing as the Footy Show was when it first started. As a Sainter, I particularly loved Gilly hosting the show, along with the friendly banter between him and Ronnie Burns. I also found the guest appearances of former, and more recently present players, enjoyable as they were given the courtesy of being allowed to have more to say than those guests on the other well know Footy Show. I can only hope that a Network picks up this wonderful program and allows it to continue in it's present format.

Why would channel 7 want a poor rating show on their channel. I never watch the show and neither do enough other people. That was the problem.

Re: now that is really bad news
Maybe Fox Footy could show it instead on constantly repeating all of 2012 games on a monthly loop!

Re: now that is really bad news
The problem is not enough people watch it to justify the cost of production.
Remember, sadly it is always more expensive to produce your own content than it is to purchase from overseas.

Re: now that is really bad news
Here's a petition going around.
If you need reminding why it's such a loss to footy culture, read the hundreds of comments.
(If only Channel 9 were axing it's footy show.)
