Nine AFL panel show to go ahead tonight despite ‘crisis meeting’ reports as hosts rumoured to depart

Nine’s popular footy panel show will go ahead on Tuesday night, following reports of a “crisis meeting” at the media giant.

According to the Herald Sun, Channel Nine executives reportedly met to discuss whether Footy Classified will go ahead amidst claims that three of its hosts – Kane Cornes, Caroline Wilson and Craig Hutchison – will be defecting to Seven next year.

However, Mumbrella understands that the show will indeed go ahead tonight at 9.40pm and Wilson will host.

Mumbrella also understands that the reports about the speculated move to the rival network will be discussed as the AFL gears up for the grand final this weekend.
