Some changes I'd make...
1) Replace Andrew Maher with Sam Lane (or an affable female co-host). Despite him sh***ing the bed on SEN re the whole supplements saga, he brings nothing to the table ... err, desk, that couldn't be achieved by the cardboard Marc Murphy in the Visy Park lobby.
Shelley Ware does a good job on Marngrook. Would be worth considering as a co-host. Thinking outside the square, I think Dean Jones (ex-cricketer) would do a good job. Loves the Blues, follows religiously, is good on TV.2) Revamp the set - something more 'Carlton', something more warm/less sterile. Throw in a couple of Premiership Cups, team photos, jumpers - think '
On The Couch meets Percy's Bar'.
Agreed. How about bringing Andy Lee into the mix? (Contingent on trading Shaun Hampson..
) I mean - we want people to watch this thing right?3) Get the thing on Fox Footy (I figure the cast of
The Hangar going to get all a little 'B-List' next year) - this would also require the show to be more regular, rather than ad-hoc.
Bit hamstrung in that regard. The show would have to be produced by McGuire Media, so we'd just be handing a lot of unnecessary cash over to Eddie. I'd keep it in website format for now. E-mail YouTube link to members the following day. 4) Work more closely with/integrate the sponsors - talk about a missed opportunity to leverage sponsorship.
No-brainer...has been suggested5) Supplement it with some pre-records that relate to the issues in question - be it an interview with Malthouse, one of the players/coaches/staff/supporters.
Yep...and 'A trip down memory lane' with Tony De Bolfo...promote the Blueseum. Tony already does the podcast - just video the interview and edit. We shouldn't accept the Blue Print in its current form. For **** sake, shouldn't we be aiming to be the best across every area of the club?
They'll be reviewing it soon. Should send some suggestions in. I'll get on it.
