Six years today since Sam took over Mel and I still don’t think she was the right choice.

Sunrise won all markets on Monday - ahead nationally by almost 80,000. Today was beaten by News Breakfast in Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.

Ratings article today. Sunrise won all markets. Today’s Sydney number seemed to be the area that was down the most while Melbourne was OK.

Couldn’t agree more. And I think a lot of people agree with me.

I think Kochie may have taken two days off this week because he did the full five days last week (when Sam was off sick).

Peter Ford tweeted it - can’t post the actual tweet since his account now is ‘protected’ (ie; you can’t view his tweets unless you follow him)
I can understand why Basil wants to leave Weekend Sunrise. Every week he flies from Perth to Sydney on Friday and fly back on Sunday, meaning he is unable to spend weekends with his family.

If this is true, he shouldn’t have taken in the first place IMO, he knew that he had a full workload. Weekend Sunrise is doing really well, would hate to see it fall with a revolving door of presenters.

Matt Doran should be his successor

Interesting if Basil leaves WS to be based Perth next year. WS haven’t got a permanent male anchor since AOK left in 2015 to concentrate on The Chase Australia.
Matt Doran will probably be his replacement
