Neroli Meadows has scored a new TV gig, working for ESPN at the Super Bowl in Miami.
Meadows, who was a high-profile host on Fox Sports, said it was a bucket list event.
“It’s exciting, it feels like a big adventure,’’ Meadows said.
“I lived in the States for six months when I finished my studies in 2005 and always wanted to experience a Super Bowl.
“I’ll essentially be doing colour and on the ground coverage.
“It’ll be fun to do something completely different and work with an overseas team.”
Meadows is the court announcer on Rod Laver Arena in the first week of the Australian Open. She also worked at the Brisbane International in the same role.
The Super Bowl is on February 3 Australian time and her role with ESPN Australia.
“In Miami it will be such a festival feeling,’’ Meadows said.
“It will be awesome.”
After she was let go from her Fox Sports hosting role in October she thanked her supporters after a “challenging” week.
Meadows also had a short-lived stint as host of the revamped The Footy Show on Channel 9.
