Several current players or coaches also appeared each week. The program was extended to 90 minutes in 2012, finishing at 11:30 am, meaning the last half-hour went head to head with the Nine Network's The Sunday Footy Show.

During the 2010 AFL finals series, the program was also broadcast on Thursday nights at 7:30 pm. A special Saturday morning edition has aired on the day of the Grand Final from 2012 until 2019.

In March 2020, the program revealed a brand new set and graphics. However, in June 2020, the program was axed due to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
