How could anyone actually watch this? These two are absolute spastics. They're both emotion-filled cutout figures. I'd say it's like Mark Robinson's always drunk, but more appropriately, it's almost as if they're on "out-of-this-world" drugs. But on a serious note: can you name 1 person who actually takes Robinson's opinion half-seriously?
When the show first went to air, it had that sort of unusual combination that worked. The experienced journo with a sound understanding of the game mixed with the local bar drunk idiot who has seen it all sharing ideas and their love of the game.
Nowadays that experienced journo is drunk on the smell of their own farts and thinks their opinions are of more value than the regular person and thus have become pompous and holier than thou. Meanwhile the local bar idiot is still the local bar drunk idiot, but is trying to be hardcore social justice warrior and now just looks like a disheveled, wash-up drunk in a suit who doesn't know everyone is laughing at them while he still thinks he's hip with all the kids.
The guests they have are boring with their "Yeah, nah" overly PR-influenced responses.
Needs something new that takes away from Whatley's holier than though persona, and Robbo's drunkenness nonsense, while not being yet another personality-less football identity.

Constantly review only Victorian teams in detail, spend all their time on one game. A bit of feedback, it's the AFL!!!! Even more reason we need to move the Grand Final around Australia so shows like these realise it's a national game not the VFL.
