  1. I would rather have mel and kochie commentate the election than samantha armitage, I am disgusted with weekend sunrise, its all about samantha,
    with constant reports of emails from men commenting on how beautiful samantha is. I thought weekend sunrise was supposed to enlighten us on the news of the world, now to give someone who already has a big head a bigger one. I for one wont watch the show

  2. this election was & still is a over kill,the panel that channel 7 chose have no idea if they did the will still be apart of parlament but they all failed .stop guessing & waite for the peoples vote to be decided!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

  3. According to ebroadcast TV guide, Southern Cross stations in Tasmania and NT will join Seven’s election coverage at 5pm AEST after the AFL match between St Kilda and Richmond. At 7pm AEST they will leave for the AFL match between Collingwood and Adelaide before returning to election coverage at 10pm.

  4. Phew! There’s Kochie and Mel doing it all over again for Seven! Will be switching between the football (Pies vs Crows) and Your Call 2010 on election night.

  5. @newtaste. I disagree. I am glad that Kochie and Mel will be in Sydney. All the background noise was really distracting in 2007. Riley and Bath in the Tally room will be enough. Good Decision 7! Best you’ve made!

  6. Woeful line-up. Mark Riley is not the pick of political editors out there. Richo is a has-been. And the less I say about Kochie and Mel the better. Seven has no crediblity if this s**t is dished up.

  7. I am so underwhelmed!
    Talk about a lack of talent – is it a Garden Party?
    Shall we wear big hats, high heeled sandals and floaty chiffon dresses so we can look the picture as we sip champagne and giggle happily?

  8. Another question is: will Southern Cross in Tasmania and Darwin, which are both Seven affiliates, go to the AFL at 7pm AEST, or stay with the election coverage? (Both areas can receive ONE which has AFL on delay with live coverage on Southern Cross)
