It’s about resources, they don’t/won’t have the people to host, produce, shoot, etc.
Really missing Footy Classified (and The Sunday Footy Show) at the moment. I understand why it’s not on, but the footy doesn’t stop for anyone and it’s a shame it’s not on during the most exciting finish to a home-and-away season in recent memory.

The absence of Talking Footy is the bigger issue and I’m surprised 7 hasn’t copped more heat from other media outlets about it

I guess since it is only newly returned it doesn’t have that built-up relationship with viewers that the others have.

One online guide had FC (M/A/P) and 100% (S/B) at 8:30pm with Seinfeld at 7:30 and the movie pushed back to 9:30.

Tomorrow night’s show will be an emotional one with Caroline Wilson to fire her final arrow after 18 seasons with the program, not to mention the last edition of Close Checking with Kane Cornes.
The show will certainly not be the same next year.

Wow didnt see this coming. Although I do like Kane and Caro together. Classified won’t be worth watching anymore if true. (for me anyways).
