Does anyone know when this will return for 2013?
Missing my nightly fix of Gerard and Robbo the drunk.
TBH, I'm surprised that Fox Footy hasn't done a weekly show during the off-season instead of just showing the old games.

I quite enjoy the show too. You think that during the off-season they'd show flashbacks of older seasons, instead of 2012 games...

Lucky they are showing anything at all. They originally planned to go off air between October - February.
Maybe they don't have the rights to those games from previous season? Doubt they would fork out anything for the off season. Can't imagine too many would be viewing.

I've suspended my Foxtel until footy season (costs me $5 a month, but I won't have to pay to get it re-connected). Will re-activate it once footy season comes around.
I really enjoyed 360 last year, I don't mind Robbo.

That's a good initiative.
Might look into that next year.
Love or hate Robbo, the bloke wears his heart on his sleeve and doesn't hold back.
Mightn't always agree with him, but the guy is the most passionate footy journo going around.

I agree with you there Baron, although there isn't much competition for him in terms of passion!

I noticed during the season they played 2 or 3 old games back-to-back on Fox Footy. It was the highlight of my week.

X3. I love the 1980s games too, just for the added biffo and lack of sanitation Vlad has brought to our beautiful game.

I'm in melb the first weekend in April, a mate of mine knows Gerard quite well and has organised for us to get on the set of AFL 360 and watch it go to air on the mon night.
My wife thinks it's sad how excited I am

The hospital service I've been working for in WA since mid-November want me to come back again in June/July.
I've told them that if I'm to come back during the footy season they'll need to put the Foxtel AFL service on at the beach side unit they provide.

How good was footy in the 90's! Where fitness and natural football ability came together and footballers still had flair. Watched a game between Essendon and Geelong in 93 and almost 50 goals were kicked and some of the shit Ablett was doing was unreal.....
Watched the game where Plugger mowed down Caven and because the Swans had 5 supporters then for the next 10 minutes after it happened you could hear random calls from people in the crowd..... "GET HIM OFF", "YOU'RE A FAT F****** C*** LOCKETT" and the remainder of the game is just out and out hilarious and actually was an amazing finish.
Funny thing is that Peter Landy defended Lockett saying he was going hard @ the footy and Don Scott went off his tits about it calling him a thug!!
