Sportsbet today opened betting on who will leave the ABC next following Michelle Guthrie’s departure, installing Shaun Micallef as the $2.50 favourite.
Another popular funnyman, Charlie Pickering is rated a $3.50 chance to jump ship ahead of Leisa Bacon.
Heavyweights Tony Jones ($10) and Leigh Sales ($12) are also not ruled out of considering their options.
“Michelle Guthrie could be the start of a mass exodus from the ABC and Shaun Micallef is someone who isn’t shy of options away from the National Broadcaster,’’ said sportsbet.com.au’s Will Byrne.
