Re: Marngrook back on SBS,- NITV
Well it is under the SBS umbrella, but SBS 4 is actually the indigenous channel, NITV. You should check it out some time. They have some good shows on at times. I thought the First Australians was excellent, and made me ashamed to be white.

Wayne Carey will be a regular panellist--small price to pay to get it back. The article didn't mention Grant; I assume he will be back?

Maybe we should have. Gilbo looks to me like he has indigenous heritage.

Re: Marngrook back on SBS,- NITV
Marngrook Footy is a fantastic show and L always looked forward to it each week in 2012.
Glad it is back on free to air tv. Seen a bit of NITV and think it is a great concept. It provides a much needed and informative window into Indidenous culture in Australia. I also really appreciate the range of shows highlighting indigenous cultures from other locations on the globe.
Also Gilbe is a beauty, great personality and ability to keep the format fresh.
Don't watch the footy show anymore but Marngrook is way more down to earth and enjoyable.
GO GILBE!
GO SAINTS!

The boy can play and we can build a defence around him that will have respect.

Re: Marngrook back on SBS,- NITV
This is what the ABC's response was after axing the MFS.
Dear Mr Majority (name changed to protect the guilty)
Thank you for your email. The ABC appreciates you taking the time to write in regard to our decision not to renew The Marngrook Footy Show for 2013.
Marngrook has a long history, commencing on community radio in the 1990s and then moving to community television and NITV, the national Indigenous television channel.
The program moved to ABC2 in 2011 and this year we broadcast 28 episodes on Thursday evenings.
I can assure you that the decision to stop production of the program after two seasons was not taken lightly.
The ABC takes a number of factors into consideration when producing or acquiring programs – whether the program is distinctive, the level of audience engagement and interest in the program, and the costs involved in producing or acquiring the program.
Regrettably, despite the show’s distinctiveness, there was limited audience interest in The Marngrook Footy Show and in spite of moving the timeslot of the show from 7:30pm to 8:30pm in 2012, the program was unable to find a sustainable audience. Considering the high production costs for the program, ABC2’s finite resources, and the fact that across pay and free-to-air television there are 18 footy shows in total, the ABC had to make the decision that our audience is better served by us investing elsewhere in other programs.
Nonetheless, the ABC acknowledges that the program had a core of devoted followers who watched the program each week and we regret your disappointment with this decision.
I will ensure that your comments are noted and made available to ABC Television management for their information.
Thank you again for taking the time to write.
Kind regards
Laura Le Mesurier

Re: Marngrook back on SBS,- NITV
Is that W.Carey on left in piccie? Must have been a suit he had in his playing days before he porked up............ or maybe that girlfiend he had years ago who threw his clothes out onto the street during one of their many dust-ups didn't throw out clothing that fitted him, wanted to make him definitely look like yesterdays man in yesterdays fashioned ill-fitting suitsaintbrat wrote:
