I saw the pom in episode 1.

Thought that was very underwhelming.

Specsavers for me tomorrow - I thought you typed "I saw the porn in episode 1"
 
A bunch of people seem to be watching the doco as if it's their embarrassing uncle or their Dad doing his impression of Elvis Presley on tape... so easily triggered.

It's obviously only a fraction of what really goes on, just a little bit of an insight. It may expand in future episodes, but really the only unedited coverage in Ep 1 is Madge himself, everyone else is safely hidden away, filmed only in the safe moments. E.g. they follow Pascoe around the day the Tigers win. Ronny Palmer basically runs behind the posts and tells the boys to breathe and chin up. Only Madge is truly unfiltered, truly captured having to perform in difficult moments.

So how many times did you rewatch it hoping to catch what you thought you had missed

But the problem was Pascoe

More suited to a CEO position at Google where ‘individuality is encouraged’.

I think it could be just the way he carries himself, but Pascoe appears flippant. He could just be nonchalant type.

I still think he's trolling people.
 
Agree with the general consensus regarding Pascoe.

Used car salesman vibes. Very sleazy. Would prefer he’d be selling the match day programs than the club ethos.

Not as many times as Basic Instinct - I wore three VHS tapes out on that one! :disappointed_relieved:

Just finished watching it. Quite enjoyed it.
Good quality production and it is nice to see that it is presented straight down the middle.
Pretty clear Madge is hugely invested while some of his players lack basic commitment to doing their job.

While I liked it, it was a bit too much of a YouTube reactions video for me. I would have liked to have seen more in-depth look at training leading into the game, looking at video sessions etc. Maybe the hard discussions between a player and coach. It was a little too focused on gameday for me. I was hoping for a little more gritty like NFL Hard Knocks.

They couldn’t really give to much away tbh ..
That might change in future episodes?

What are we seeking choir boys or results? Pascoe gets results, Maguire doesn't. That is the bottom line.

You guys are actually watching this I'd like to watch two wins in a row first

U must be fun at partys far out

Watching now good start with inxs



Quality production, full credit to Fox Sport.

Been watching Simon Dwyer for a long time now and you just don’t see any reaction from him.

Love the guy but don't see his or Badgers purpose in the box

Dwyer deserves his place in the after have his very promising career taken from him giving his all for Wests Tigers and we should never forget that his tackle on JWH should be etched in every WT'S mind.

He’s a gun statistician apparently. That’s why he’s in the box . He feeds the coach all the numbers .

Some players must be giving him back handers to fudge the figures ?

Haven't watched it yet.
Hope it doesn't give away too many of our secrets.
I would hate another team learning how to miss the finals year after year....

What results are they?
 
The sense I got watching everyone in the episode ie Madge, the fan /sponsor, the fan/grandfather etc was a heap of optimism and confidence and then the collapse when something went against us. I can relate because it’s how I felt all season but I would have expected Madge to be more confident in the process and be focusing more on the tweaks we need. That attitude must rub off on the team.

Who’s the geezer in the box with black hair ( not Dwyer)

Ron Griffiths, the fella on the phone.. not caring one bit at all, pathetic man..

So what’s his offical role ?
Besides placing bets on the phone ?


indigenous pathways I believe. hugely respected.

doubt he was betting

Still a few episodes to explore those areas.
 
After seeing the quality of the assistants ..most downvoted me for wanting Bomber Morris he would not be good enough 😂

He may well be. It was just an observation on my part, not an objective truth.
