I liked how tonight’s Melbourne news had Rebecca co-hosting at the MCG for the footy stuff and Mike back in the studio for the rest of the news. Abbey there for sport made sense, obviously. It seemed to work well. ---

Why do they call it “7NEWS _Spotlight_” when they don’t even present it under a spotlight? “Landline” isn’t presented on a landline telephone, “The Drum” doesn’t feature a drum kit and it isn’t even about music. ---

Thanks Captain Obvious. Your examples are all stand alone TV shows. Inside AFL is a brand within an existing brand. What is it actually promoting? There is no Inside AFL TV Show. Nothing pops up when you Google Inside AFL. If other media take the vision, there is no branding on what Inside AFL is or where it originally aired. It stands no purpose. To watch Inside AFL you watch 7NEWS. Just call it a 7 Exclusive or drop the on screen clutter if it isn’t an exclusive. Calling it 7 Sport would be more effective. ---

Just call it a 7 Exclusive or drop the on screen clutter if it isn’t an exclusive. It’s an “inside look” at the AFL. Only instead of calling it something generic like “7 Exclusive” they decided to theme the name for the AFL. That’s all it is buddy. ---

I don’t get what’s not to get here? Anything that is AFL has been “7 Inside AFL” for years. Its meaning is that because 7 are the rights holder they have exclusive access to the grounds and they tout because of this, (having the rights) they have the “inside scoop” on any news items that surround the afl. Therefore “INSIDE AFL” So it’s a play on words that it’s news from “inside the AFL”. I agree it’s a ugly but that’s the rationale behind it. Sniping at Nick when it’s been explained, what I thought quite clearly is unnecessary and rude. ---
