I agree Tony will take over from Hitch next week but he will probably have the week from Christmas to New Years off.
Monday -
Erin Molan presented sport in Sydney.
Tuesday (27.11.2018) - Thursday (29.11.2018): Andrew Lofthouse is anchoring the Brisbane bulletin live from Deepwater, Central QLD on the Bushfire Emergency. Melissa Downes is reading the rest of the dayâs news in studio.
Sam Squires presenting sport on the morning news. Glad to see TCN using her hopefully sheâll fill in over summer on Nine News Sydney.
Isnât she only a recent arrival to Sydney?
Youâd think other more familiar faces to Sydney viewers will get exposure on the Sydney 6pm news over summer ahead of her.
Agreed. Iâd be picking Danika Mason before Sam Squires to be a fill-in Sports presenter here in Sydney over the Summer.
Standing presentation from Overton tonight for the first ten minutes of the bulletin.
Andrew Lofthouse appearing on the Sydney bulletin in a clumsy live cross from the Queensland fires.
Wednesday -
Belinda Russell presented weather in Sydney.
One would imagine that tonight will probably be Peter Overtonâs final bulletin for 2018, with tomorrow night (which incidentally, will probably also mark 20 years since the first bulletin Hitch presented after succeeding Brian Naylor) likely to be Peter Hitchenerâs last for the year?
If Lizzie Pearl is expected to return home as per @TheMoreYouKnow, would I be right by presuming thereâll be some room for her to return to Nine News Sydney? I get that Alice Monfries might return to Adelaide after Kate Creedon returns from maternity leave, but what about the gap Elise Baker has left behind - has that been filled yet?
While Iâm still talking about Nine News Sydney reporters, I wonder how Chris OâKeefe has been going lately? Havenât seen reports from him in a fair few weeks now. Hopefully COK hasnât left Nine, because heâs just about one of the best journalists the Macquarie Street round has to offer!
Ross Greenwood sure loves a prop and whiz bang graphics to aid his presentation of dry finance reports:
Yeah, I noticed the computer generated rain during Greenwoodâs report last night.
Is Ross trying his best to compete with Mike Dalton or something?
EDIT: Oh and how can I forget, they travelled quite a distance for tonightâs PTC in the Porsche Boxter S as well!
Perhaps Today needs to start a regular segment featuring âChanel 9â talent reading out their fan mail. I thought the armchair critics on this forum were tough.
Isnât Chanel 9 a cologne?
Well, at least we know two people whoâve (probably) put their name on the âDo Not Admit Entryâ list at TCN Security!
At least Christine and Alan had the guts to send him a letter and put their name to it rather than the anonymous whining here and on social media.
Geez you donât see Ross get as much stick for using an umbrella inside a studio!! Itâs not even raining!! You need to dumb down your money segments Nine! I canât seem to trust you when you wave an umbrella!
Mark Burrows is presenting tonightâs Sydney 6pm bulletin.
Iâd presume that Peter Overtonâs final bulletin for the year was last night (although sadly no on-air mentions if so) and that Deborah Knight will probably be filling in for a few weeks from Sunday.
Tonight is Peter Hitchenerâs last night presenting in Melbourne for 2018 with Hitch heading off on a well deserved holiday.
