And they can start the news a fraction later.

It reminds me of Channel 9 during summer from years gone by during ODI cricket where the first innings would finish at 5.30pm, a show like Who Wants to be a Millionaire or Postcards would be on for half an hour then the news comes on at 6pm meaning the first half an hour of the second innings wouldn't be telecast, I could never get why the news couldn't be on at 5.30 when the first innings finishes.

It just frustrates me that the 6pm news still holds right of way and channels (in this case now channel 7) aren't more flexible with it and the footy is transferred to 7mate for the last part of it.

I do note that I think the news finished early on Friday night as the Geelong v Port game started at 6.40 our time.

It's just a fascination with news starting at 6pm.
Ch7 have had no issues with shortening the news, but what's the difference if it's slightly delayed??

Who the **** still watches the 6pm news?
I don’t even think my nearly 80 year old parents do anymore

Yep, and we would return with Bill or Greigy "Welcome back to our Adelaide viewers, the West Indies pace attack have started well, and the Aussies are 3/13. Border on 10* and Waugh yet to score".

And then when Gilchrist came into the side opening with Mark Waugh you just prayed that you saw a left hander on the screen when the telecast came back on.
