New Set??
No new set.
Pat Cash is the showâs first guest for 2024.
Also appearing is 100-year-old tennis player Henry Young from Adelaide.
The talk/interview with Henry Young was great, and hilarious. Pat Cash gave a good insight into his career too.
Samâs Drip Tray was back, as to Mickâs Multi.
Will Sam ever go paddle boarding again?
Totally agree. More of this.
This weekâs guests are Eric Bana, and basketball greats Luc Longley and Horace Grant.
Longley, Grant and Scottie Pippen will be discussing Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls of the 1990s in the No Bulls Tour, which starts in Hobart tomorrow (Friday) before continuing to Melbourne on Saturday, and Sydney next Tuesday.
Funny moment at the start, with the warning about old men dancing to Taylor Swift, followed by pics of Sam Pang paddle boarding.
Gold Coast Suns coach Damien Hardwick, and Collingwood premiership stars Nick and Josh Daicos (and their father Peter Daicos) will be special guests on next Wednesdayâs show.
Great episode on Thursday. Cathy commentating her historic 400m race was something
Apparently, from next Wednesday week (March 13), the show will only be shown in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, with Sydney and Brisbane missing out altogether with no screening on 7two, 7mate or 7flix. Can anyone confirm this?
All markets at 8.30pm on 13 March
Thatâs good news. I hope it stays in the schedule for Sydney and Brisbane viewers during this AFL season.
On the main channel in Sydney and Brisbane?
Unless ratings dictate a change in the future, The Front Bar will be seen nationally at 8.30pm Wednesdays. Only Talking Footy will be flipped with Crime Investigation Australia in Sydney and Brisbane
After last yearâs hugely successful show, The Front Bar will make a return to Adelaide Oval for the Gather Round special, on Wednesday April 3 (the night after Nineâs Gather Round Spectacular at Adelaide Entertainment Centre). Limited tickets are now available by email application.
There is also a competition for Victorian viewers, with the prize including two tickets to the Adelaide Oval show, plus return airfares and accommodation. You will have to tune in to next Wednesdayâs program (March 20), then listen to Triple M Melbourne breakfast show the following morning (March 21), for your chance to win.
###The Front Bar returns to Adelaide
Back in SA for Gather Round, live and free on Seven and 7plus
In exciting news for sports fans, everyoneâs favourite footy show, The Front Bar, is returning to South Australia, to celebrate the AFLâs Gather Round, on Wednesday, 3 April 2024 on Channel 7 and 7plus.
Going on the road for the second consecutive year, resident patrons Mick Molloy, Andy Maher and Sam Pang will kick-start happy hour at 8.30pm AEST, live from Adelaide Oval to open Sevenâs Gather Round coverage, with all 7AFL commentators and hosts broadcasting live from South Australia.
Mick Molloy said: âI loved Gather Round last year, but can I just say one thing: not enough football. I had nothing to do on Friday afternoon. Surely, we can fit 18 games in this time.â
Managing Director Seven Melbourne and Head of Network Sport, Lewis Martin said: âThe 2023 outside broadcast of The Front Bar at Adelaide Oval kicked off Gather Round in the best way possible, and we cannot wait to hit the ground running for a second consecutive year.
âOn behalf of the entire Seven Network, we thank the South Australian government for granting us the opportunity to fully embrace the excitement of Gather Round in 2024. We look forward to bringing all the laughs of The Front Bar, and all the biggest and best moments from the 7AFL broadcast, on the road to the people of Adelaide and broadcast to homes all around Australia, live and free on Seven.â
The Front Bar kicks off a huge month for South Australians, ahead of Gather Round and followed by the highly anticipated Adelaide leg of LIV Golf â all live and free on Seven.
Fans should tune into The Front Bar for the next two Wednesday nights to find out how they can secure tickets to the Adelaide Oval live show.
Man, Sam Pang absolutely roasted new AFL CEO Andrew Dillon on TFB last night. I realise thatâs the nature of the show, heâd have seen Gillon McLachlan previously face similar and received some pointers from him, however while all was tongue-in-cheek, heâd deep down have realised that and maybe even been briefed by a publicist or the boys themselves beforehand⌠Some of Pangâs remarks were still fairly harsh and potentially offensive, certainly from his and an AFL House standpoint. He was a good sport for going on, broadcast partner and all, but doubt heâll be doing that too often!
â
On another note, is The Front Bar classified as a âsportâ program or âentertainmentâ program? Because EPG/listings even network presentation all indicate itâs the latter⌠Yet Seven use its sport watermark and AFAIK Seven Sport produce it (could just be theyâve axed so many teams at HSV/BCM that its the only one left to produce shows in-house there).
I think itâs an entertainment program but is produced under the Seven Sport banner as it is considered to be part of the networkâs AFL/Cricket or broader sports coverage
I notice Seven uploads Front Bar dirty as broadcast, I wonder why vs other programs. Laziness/easier? Also I noticed there were no break-away bvod/7Plus ad breaks last night, it was literally the 7Melbourne broadcast breaks including promos from last night (there was even a 7mate promo for âMy Best Friends Weddingâ for Friday), etc. Maybe due to certain advertising activations that were only during the broadcast breaks and canât be in the 7Plus ones?
