  • Comedian, actor and entertainer Glenn Robbins appears on The Front Bar.
    Well known for iconic Australian characters including Russell Coight, Kel Knight (of Kath & Kim fame) and Uncle Arthur. Glenn, however, proves his football knowledge doesn't quite stack up with his other achievements.

    I felt uncomfortable about the setup, the cheap shirt, and the mug of chocolate. Glen has created some unforgettable characters, but this was a little fish out of water. If Glen had begun his career with this character, we may have never heard of him again. Mining the miniscule comedic opportunities this role presented, there were still funny moments, but this was a road best not travelled.....
