Huddo is also on the Fox Sports feed, seems it’s just a simulcast with both networks providing commentators.

Hot and windy conditions today, up to 34 in the city and gusty, cool change this evening. A few clouds unlike yesterday might make things somewhat more bearable for athletes and spectators though.

Not sure why we need a table when it’s an one-time event.

Based on the caps above, the weather wasn’t cooperating.
Would be more hyped, I assume, if they run down the list by month.
I am not sure if this promo is accurate since it includes some sports that are live and exclusive on Stan.
It is accurate, technically, as the endcap only has WWOS on it.
Doesn’t stop some personalities from holding Stan-branded mics.
There’s becoming a bit of brand confusion in how Nine promotes their sports line up.
On one hand, WWOS and Stan Sport are treated as separate and distinct entities (e.g., whenever rugby union airs on Nine, it understandably comes under the Stan Sport banner). On the other hand though, when Nine does WWOS lineup promos, they bundle in primarily/exclusively Stan Sport properties even though they don’t come under the WWOS banner.

Well, it’s all still technically ‘on Nine,’ since Stan Sport is part of Nine’s corporate group, and the WWoS branding is still being used appropriately as Nine Entertainment acquires the rights and sign contracts for both.
Yeah forget the viewer and ease of communication for them as to what they can expect, as long as they’re technically correct under their corporate structure and who the contract is lodged under, who cares?
