The “post game” was always scheduled for 7Mate
Seven News Saturday (Syd, Melb, Brisb) started at 6.14pm.
The first 3 quarters all went over 35mins because there was a lot of goals & stoppages. The 1st Q for 38min & even 3rd where there was no goals scored for the first 16mins before 8 goals late went for 36mins
Looks like 7 News on the east coast will run close to the full one hour with sports currently airing after 7pm.
News finished at 7:14pm
Seven News Brisbane is not usually on the air during Riverfire that starts at 7pm so tonight was a rare opportunity to show some fireworks.
V/O tonight was “Live across Queensland, this is Seven News…”
Is it worth a programming interruption though?
I mean, I can understand if the presser is “Dezi has been caught and we have a million-dollar recipient”.
This could have waited until the noon newscast where it deserved to lead the rundown.
There is no “noon newscast” on the weekend.
You’re right. The next newscast is 6pm, and waiting until then would be a bit of a disservice.
Anyone else breaking in?
It was the top story on Weekend Sunrise. I am not sure there was a need to break into programming.
Will we get the Kay McGrath VO again gor Sarah’s return?
If only ADC was still in charge. All network VOs would be the TikTok AI girl voice
I assume more information will be released in the coming days.
The Afternoon Show?
thisAFTERNOON
From the loos of it, Alex seems like he will be the sole host for this show.
The question being, are viewers looking for more news at 3pm albeit in a magazine-type format? Or do they prefer a game show. Seven could potentially be gifting Nine a bunch of viewers at 3pm.
wasn’t The Daily Edition only axed a few years back? sounds like the same thing.
