Histori
The event, which airs from March to September during the AFL season, was launched in 2015 as an online-only event on the official AFL website, AFL.com.au. In 2016, Seven Network took its show, with the episode divided into two segments, with the first half being uploaded to AFL.com.au on Friday afternoon and the second half aired after Friday night's game on Seven Network in traditional AFL country and 7mate in New South Wales and Queensland. The episode was filmed at the All Nations Hotel in Richmond, Victoria.
In 2017, the event was renamed to The Front Bar and expanded to an hour-long one-studio format. In April, the event moved to Thursday night to go head-to-head with the long-running Nine Network The Footy Show . The series is produced by Front Bar Entertainment, with episodes generally featuring hosts drinking Carlton Draft beers as they discuss this week's topic. For now, guests have included Kevin Bartlett, Brian Taylor and Herald Sun cartoonist Mark Knight, who was responsible for designing the Premiership memorial cover.
In 2018, during the AFL offseason, one of their editions centered on the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.
