But doesn’t Seven News Melbourne already have a female weather presenter on weekends? Granted that the move ensures an equal number of male/female presenters across their main Sunday/Thursday and Friday/Saturday presenting teams (although HSV probably had to do that, after Jennifer Keyte defected to Ten), but there’s still more males than females across both teams at Seven News Sydney.
Let’s also remember that the post also hinted at a recently under fire Seven News director announcing their departure in coming weeks, so it’ll be very interesting to see what happens there.
8 Sep 2018 - With Perth having a special 5pm bulletin, Ryan Daniels was inside Optus Stadium for the preparation of the Qualifying Final between West Coast and Collingwood. Kate Smithers was outside the Stadium Station in Burswood talking about the transport capacity for the event. Rory Camm was outside Optus Stadium.
Outside of AFL leadin Nine leads heavily on Weekends.
Have Jane Mon-Fri and get rid of the weekend weather. Nathan for Sport on Weekends, would be very competitive against Clint. Otherwise aside Mike, it’s a no from me for the other two. They could have even pulled Corey Norris from 9 for the gig if we want to play musical chairs again.
Maybe felt she was under-utilised on the Afternoon News and could be a pathway to something bigger? Also prime time consolation prize as she’s been filling-in presenting in Melbourne longer than Blake Johnson but Mike Amor was appointed weekend presenter over her? Her husband is also long-time sport utility at Seven Melbourne.
