The Front Bar

Seems they have remove all the references to Carlton Draught in tonight’s episode. The hosts are wearing classic cricket uniforms.


Also the producers managed to grab lots of classic Channel Nine cricket footage from 1970s and 1980s.

Lion (XXXX beer, etc) are a principal partner (and alcohol partner) with CA and therefore Seven and Foxtel. Not CUB.

Fourth panelist or just contributor. Either way I’m a fan of Andy Lee. Looking forward to seeing how they use him.

If you’re going to add someone, how about someone who could actually contribute something or at least is funny.
What about a woman?

The Front Bar snares prize recruit Andy Lee

Star funnyman to join Mick, Sam and Andy at the Bar in 2020

Happy Hour will be extended at The Front Bar in 2020 after the hit Seven footy show pulled off the recruiting coup of the summer, snaring Aussie fan favourite Andy Lee as its newest star.

Front Bar chief recruiting officer Mick Molloy was ecstatic when – in a shock development – Lee was still available at pick No. 5 in the TV Show Draft.

''Obviously, he’ll learn a lot from working with two of the industry giants … and Andy Maher,’’ Molloy said on Friday.

Lee, a Carlton diehard, was equally excited when presented with his first Front Bar flannel ahead of his much-anticipated debut.

''Management and I weighed up all of our available options and it certainly wasn’t just a money issue … it had a lot to do with a lifelong supply of beer which The Morning Show couldn’t match,’’ Lee said.

The Front Bar returns to Seven soon.

Looking forward to see how they use him. Georgie Parker (AFLW commentator) could be a 5th panelist

Wonder how this effects Nine’s H&A deal?

Could Andy Lee do what Fitzy does, and be a roving reporter and fill-in host?
