      1. Yeah I have noticed sources have not been disclosing or reporting on them as much as they were last year.
        Perhaps because 9 winning 2019 was big news after nearly 12 years of being 2nd?

    1. It’s been a long time since there’s been a big end year bang with all the shiny floor shows, dramas etc bowing out in the last week of November.

  1. Bring on summer! LOL. I predict cricket will do better for Seven and Foxtel this time, mainly thanks to a better side in India and a condensed Big Bash, with tennis doing lower with less traditional lead-up tournaments and a still as yet unknown Aus Open dates.

    Then there’s Carols, NYE, Australia Day, etc.

    But who knows.
