This’ll be good, not sure about the host though, somebody more notable and less controversial would’ve been better

Bit late for a Sunday night? However, is understandable if MAFS and 60 minutes has bloated episodes each week

It’s earlier than Footy Classifed. That airs at 10:30pm/ 10:45pm.

Plus didn’t they say it was going to be on 9Now earlier and then air on 9 later.

Correct, both Footy Classified and Footy Furnace will be uploaded to 9Now earlier in the evening before being shown on the main channel around 10pm or so.

Looks like no airing on GEM for NSW/QLD, plenty of space in the schedule with program repeats running at 4am (could repeat it there in all markets).

What would the point be though?

To get coverage into NSW and QLD at an acceptable position in the schedule.

Even though I know it’s not going to happen, but would rather that Nine use this studio for federal elections than the warehouse studio in Sydney.

Is this in all states or just AFL states?

Probably too small for that but could host an element of it if you didn’t have a massive team.

Later start time (i.e. live on FTA rather than 9Now at 7:30) because of the later finish to matches today.

The references to heat and hot seem incredibly shoe horned in just to relate to the shows title.

But seeing they’re doing it, let’s continue it:
Tom Morris isn’t easy to warm to.
