MICK, SAM AND ANDY RETURN FOR 2021 ON SEVEN
Everyone’s favourite footy show is back on the Seven Network this Wednesday night as The Front Bar officially opens happy hour for the 2021 AFL season.
After a long and arduous pre-season, Mick Molloy, Sam Pang and Andy Maher will assume their usual positions at the bar on Channel Seven and 7plus on Wednesday, at 8.30pm in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth, and 11.00pm in Sydney and Brisbane.
Molloy said The Front Bar team was raring to go for the season opener, but only after a
blockbuster off-season move that would have rocked the AFL world ultimately fell over.
“I was going to replace Bruce McAvaney, but I told Seven Friday nights were no good. And Saturdays I play golf. And Sunday arvos I generally like to have a nap,” Molloy said.
“Plus, I said it’s a deal breaker if I’m not allowed to swear in my commentary. If they want colour commentary, they’ll get colour commentary!”
Wednesday night’s show is set to be a classic with Richmond legend Kevin Bartlett and The
Front Bar regular Ryan “Fitzy” Fitzgerald set to drop by, while the team will pay tribute to
Bruce McAvaney after the broadcasting icon’s decision to step back from calling AFL games.
The season’s biggest question will also be answered. After Molloy last year proved a man of
his word by opening the season with a Mabior Chol hairstyle, will he unveil the Kevin Bartlett haircut he promised if the Tigers won back-to-back premierships?

Tonight replacing Mick Mallory.
Please advise who he is, where he comes from, and what his main occupation.
He is brilliant, so witty and should be on weekly.
