AFL STARS TAKE OVER ON PLAYERS
BRAND-NEW SHOW IS ALL TALK, NO FILTER
PREMIERE MONDAY, APRIL 28,
AFTER FOOTY CLASSIFIED ON CHANNEL 9 & 9NOW
A brand new footy show is landing on television – and this time the players are calling the shots.
Players is the show for the fans, by the players, premiering Monday, April 28, after Footy Classified on Channel 9 and 9Now.
Every Monday, three of the AFL’s biggest names will sit down in a relaxed, locker room-style setting to open up about everything from the game to life beyond it. From on-field heroics to off-field habits, Players is where the AFL stars let their guard down and show a side of themselves that fans rarely get to see.
Fronted by former professional basketball player turned media personality Felix Von Hofe, Players is designed to get people talking. With experience on and off the court, Felix knows how to connect with players, ask the questions the fans really want answered and keep the banter rolling.
Locked in for episode one are some of the most talked about names in the game, including Collingwood premiership superstar Nick Daicos, Hawthorn phenom Nick “Wizard” Watson and Geelong’s Coleman Medallist Jeremy Cameron.
The program is built around key segments giving players the space to share stories, stir the pot and show off the personalities you don’t see at press conferences.
With no other show giving players the mic quite like this, Players promises to deliver an unfiltered take on the week’s biggest talking points, from match-day madness to personal passions. More than just a footy panel, Players is where the AFL players can be themselves as they share laughs and stories the fans will lap up.
Players is produced by JamTV for the 9Network.
