Hopefully somewhere in news. She absolutely deserves a permanent position in their newsroom compared to others (Ferguson etc.)

Wouldn’t surprise me if she leaves.

I believe she is still on contract… so at the very least she should be part of the Olympic team.

Sally Bowrey was back reading the morning news (and will also present the National afternoon news). Jim Wilson was on sport.

Note I’ve only just returned from overseas.

Big news from Adelaide!

Gertie Spurling has announced at the end of tonight’s weather that she is, wait for it, PREGNANT!!! The other big news is that Amelia Mulcahy will RETURN to Seven News Adelaide weather from Monday. Congrats to Gertie!

Great. Another reason not to watch Seven News Sydney this year.

If only the rumour that Michael Usher becoming Seven News Sydney anchor was true…

While I’m not surprised that Fergo’s return is coinciding with Peter Overton’s and the new graphics on Nine, it’s still rather disappointing that Michael Usher only got two or three weeks in the main chair!

It’s definitely a big mistake.

Mark has had over 15 years to prove himself in the main chair, time to give someone else a go.

I agree, but there must be people at Seven who like Mark Ferguson if they’re willing to persist with him for a new decade despite the fact that Michael Usher scored them their only ratings period win of 2019!

Of course this is probably to be discussed in the other thread, but what’s the bet Seven will also try and spoil the Nine News rebrand by launching some (no doubt half hearted) graphics updates of their own tomorrow night? We all saw how Seven reacted to Nine’s 2017 set launch by bringing in a “Breaking News” mode for the set basically after seeing the rival network’s promo!

I really don’t think Nine’s graphics update is as a big deal of what you think it is.

There are much bigger problems at hand for Seven.

No doubt the average viewer doesn’t care or in some cases, even really notice.

But of course, Nine wouldn’t spend what I suspect are not insignificant amounts of money on new graphics every few years if they didn’t see any value in keeping their brand fresh!

I agree, but it seems highly unlikely that the burning issues of content & Mark Ferguson will be addressed anytime soon!
