But of course, it’s only been two weeks since Matt Shirvington’s first Sydney 4pm & 6pm Sports segments! One would imagine that he’ll be used as a fill-in Sports presenter for Mel McLaughlin on Sunday-Thursday Sydney 6pm bulletins and Monday-Thursday Morning + Sydney 4pm bulletins when the opportunities arise.
Friday 24 July-
Andrew McCormack is presenting sport on Afternoon News in Melbourne again today.
Jodie Speers will be returning to the 5am news soon. It was mentioned in mediaweek article about Ben Fordham’s new contract.
Yes, he’s filed a series of exclusive reports on Olympians this week.
Saturday: Angela Cox is presenting in Sydney.

It was likely because of the new graphics, but Laurel Irving’s surname was misspelled as Iriving.

Edwina Bartholomew presented Early News.
Sean Sowerby presented sport on the Morning News.
That’s a long way of saying…

Some good news from Jacqui Felgate
David Woiwod has just voice-overed his first report as US correspondent.
I assume it was a voiceover as he may been in quarantine over in the US? Might not be another week or so until he is actually seen on a report in the US?
Exactly what I’m thinking too, given it’s only been 14 days today since he last appeared on Sunrise, and may have arrived in the States about 2-3 days later.
