if that helliar comes in. the show will last 2 weeks. his alter ego moron isnt even funny and they have him on all the time. keep trev and get rid of jb and lyon. bring back eddie which is going to happen anyway

i don’t see why they can’t leave it as it is. sure, sam had lots of controversy this year, but that made compelling viewing in several cases. if it ain’t broke, dont fix it as the cliche goes. however, i agree, the NRL footy show is stale, and needs some changes.

helliar’s not one of those blokey blokes on the footy show. Can’t they come up with a better rumour.

I dont think and I hope that Helliar would not associate him self with an aged format and with sam newman.
Although it may help him promote his triple M breakfast show to the target audience?

They always misspell his name. No harm done.

Bad Herald Sun for making the typo. Bad TV Tonight for not correcting it!

If they decided to bench Trev it would just confirm to me that the decision makers at Ch9 don’t have a clue. Trev is hilarious, consistent and isn’t over the top like some of the others on the show. If they want to make some changes, get a decent host. I don’t mind Gary or James, but imo Eddie was more suited to the position. No matter what you think of Eddie, he was professional and kept the show running smoothly.

You are kidding me CH9?!! Trevor is the shining light of this show!!! Gary Lyon should be the one walking out the exit door! He is as boring as bat poo!!!

Not quite. Its just in different timezones elsewhere. The finale figure was appalling regardless.

The reason 9 didn’t dump the NRL footy show is because it is only on in Brisbane and Sydney. So they can’t expect it to get 900 thousand in 2 cities.

Marmalade has been one of the only posiive things about the afl footy show especially since macguire left. As for the nrl one…319000 viewers…strange that nine normally dumps shows that are under 900,000 viewers so why does this piece of ….. remain…one wonders. If it was more like the afl footy show which apart from newman is a bit more targeted to the actually sport and a bit more informative then it may be worth keeping.
