Everyone in the city/Northbridge keep a look out for their kick ons
Emma Lawrence is presenting sport again this weekend .
Bit of an audio glitch going to that ad break
Tim Hipsley has been doing sports reporting for 10 Melbourne (not sure how long he has been doing this)?
He left 10 Sydney in February and started as a freelance associate producer for Sports Tonight in July based in Melbourne.
Looks like 10 have snatched another one
Chris Bath for weekends @ 5pm
Shame no local news, but a great pick up and replacement for Tarsh
10 doing some great things (and not so great) at the moment, nice pick up there.
She will present 10 News First every Saturday and Sunday, replacing colleague and friend Natarsha Belling, who has taken a spot on Studio 10, the CBS-backed networkâs morning program.
Bath will also make regular appearances on The Project news panel and Studio 10, as well as contributing to 10 Daily.
With her son Darcy, 18, now old enough to take care of himself, the veteran news reader said she was lured to Ten because of its non-toxic culture and âvibeâ.
Bathâs new role will be in addition to her radio commitments which include Evenings with Chris Bath on ABC Radio Sydney.

This was predicted a year ago⊠Bathie is a big pick up.
Bathie would make a good anchor for a 10 Federal election coverage.
What a get. Brilliant.
Great that 10 is maintaining with women at the forefront of all their bulletins.
The time has finally come!
What an absolutely brilliant get for the network.
Too bad no one will see her.
Woah. 10 really picking up massive talents this week. First PVO now Chris Bath. Theyâre back in business.
Really? Chris is on weekend afternoons to an audience of around 200,000 - 300,000 give or take.
Her appointment will not change a thing.
Technically, that is roughly the same amount of viewers as the Sydney market when she was the Seven News anchor
On a serious note, hopefully her appointment will be part of a wider plan come next year.
True but thatâs in one city. The current 10 News weekend numbers are the whole country. Itâs an embarrassment.
Itâll be Mike Munro all over again. Sheâll be gone after a year or two.
I think 10 are a bit more serious this time around with doing things right, obviously there are wider changes that systematically need to happen throughout the network with additional resources, revamp of their early evening schedule and weekend offerings however this appointment is a step in the right direction and they needed to secure someone to secure Tarsh and who could also contribute to the news department which is exactly what will happen. Iâm optimistic that further changes will occur in due course.
Such a weird pick up for Ten considering her radio commitments will prevent her from filling in for Sully most nights. Iâm not sure what the point of these big name, expensive hirings is if they arenât going to make a serious effort to bolster their news presence beyond 5pm. Studio 10 doesnât really count and the lack of state bulletins on Ten on weekends is a running joke.
It says a lot about what mustâve been happening at Seven around 2014 if Bath has taken the same job at another network with a much smaller audience, albeit national. Such a pity Nine doesnât have something for her although certain incidents would indicate a negative, bitchy vibe in that newsroom.
