Almost Football Legends—(Formerly by Crawford/Brownless/Marmalade). Showcases local footy highlights (such as big marks, great goals, and unusual occurrences). Originally started so that
some football footage would be shown. It became a talent quest, with the winner receiving a prize, and some players featured in the segment (most notably
Russell Robertson) have even been signed up by AFL clubs based on their performances. •
Angry Al—Originally the
Gary Coleman Medal, renamed the Gary Coleman Memorial Medal and then the
Charlie Sheen Medal, and was later resurrected in homage to volatile coach
Alastair Clarkson—a faux medal awarded to the AFL personality who lost their temper in the most major way in the previous week. Footage of other sport flare-ups where also shown as 'nominations'. • Big Bill House—A one-off segment which aired on the show in 2013, 2014 and 2015. Was introduced in 2013 when Newman, Shane, and Garry all got their certainty tips incorrect in the same round. Big Bill House featured challenges set by Big Bill (Brownless) which were often humorous and stupid. • The Wheel—Brownless goes around to local footy clubs to have a competition where they won what would come up on the wheel. This segment came back in 2018 for only a couple of episodes. •
Street Talk (by Newman)—A satirical take on
vox pop by interviewing and making fun of various characters on the streets of cities around Australia. Brownless, Crawford or
Brendan Fevola fill in as host of this segment when Newman was unable to fulfill his position. •

House of Bulger, ending with Hank being shot dead by Dr. Pink (
Nathan Brown) on the Grand Final show. • ''Shane's Mailbag—
A simple mocking of Sam's Mailbag'' that occurred occasionally in 2009. Crawford placed a sign in front of himself with the segment's name whilst wearing a wide-brimmed hat and blowing a whistle. •
Pillow Talk (by Brayshaw/Lyon)—Wives or girlfriends of AFL footballers are interviewed. •
Under The Pump—A member of the panel would be asked poignant questions by other panellists and presenters, with a bike pump lowered above them for comedic effect. • ''That's What I'm Talkin' About'' (by Crawford/Chris Sheedy)—Recurring segment in 2009. Crawford attempted to beat various
Guinness World Records. Records that have been broken include kissing 96 people in 60 seconds and having 153
spiders crawl on his body for 30 seconds. •
Pardon My Puzzle (by Brayshaw/Lyon)—Recurring segment in 2011. A sequence of images is displayed from which Newman and the panel must "piece together" the answer. Usually (but not always) they are the names of AFL players and coaches, and the images are often amusing. Examples include:
Dick Clay (penis made of clay),
Drew Petrie (
Drew Carey + a kid peeing on tree)
John Schultz (a picture of a toilet [also known as a john] + a picture of
Sergeant Schultz), and
Scott Camporeale (A
Scot + a
camper + a
rally). • ''Hughesy's Spray''—Involves Hughes attending a selected team's training and 'stirring them up' with humorous asides about their club and various players. This was similar to the BTG Super Spray (also done by Hughes on
