Correct, similar to how Mel McLaughlin presents Sydney’s 4pm sport from Monday to Thursday and Matt Shirvington on a Friday.
Although it seems to be a strange “Melbourne” thing, where the 6pm sport presenter never reads sport on the 4pm bulletin. As far as I can remember, Tim Watson has never presented sport on the afternoon bulletin. Whereas in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth, the 6pm sport reader also reads sport at 4pm.
I don’t think that Jacqui has ever presented sport on Melbourne’s 4pm bulletin, she’s only ever read the news, so it will be interesting to see if she presents sport this afternoon, in addition to sport at 6pm.
In an ideal world, I’d put Jacqui on weeknight sports and Tim Watson moves to the weekend team. But if Tim Watson didn’t want to do weekends, then Sean Sowerby could return to his former weekend position he held before being replaced by Jacqui.
Jacqui Felgate full time please no!
Surely it’s not just me that thinks she is way over the top and simply “too much”?!?!? Always jumping in and talking & laughing loudly before waiting to be introduced. Comes across as trying too hard & unnatural. Cleary very ambitious and gunning to get a more high profile role. Don’t even get me started on Footy Central
I admit that she is a bit over the top sometimes and overly cheery when they throw over to her for sport, but at the end of the day, personally I think she’s a natural fit for the role.
I’m not sure what’s so bad about that - isn’t that what most people at TV networks try to do to work their way up to the top?
Technically he already does a 6 day week, sport on Seven News Melbourne from Sunday to Thursday and SEN Breakfast from Monday to Friday, but I agree 7 days would be too much.
