Had it not been for the very ordinary ratings/main channel shares on Saturday, as well as public back-lash, I suspect networks would’ve gone all out again with a rolling coverage panel from 7pm.
But now looks like they’ll just play their usual movies, etc. Seven also have AFL (different games and times in markets) again so might help them with less chaos this time.
