Dumped Fox Sports presenter Neroli Meadows has exited with class, thanking fans for their support after a difficult week.
Meadows, who is highly regarded in sporting circles, was surprisingly axed on Monday.
It’s believed she is the latest victim of cost cutting at the cash-strapped pay-tv station.

In a post on social media, the 34-year-old wrote: “After ten years in two cities, my time at Fox has come to an end. I have had an incredible time with many sensational people.
“Doing boundary for both AFL & cricket this past year and hosting international cricket has been a dream come true, 20 years in the making.
“Thank you to all the players, coaches and administrators who trusted me to share their stories and all the people who chose to spend their time tuning in to watch. I’ve met some brilliant people and made some wonderful mates.
Thanks for being kind guys... pic.twitter.com/RD6T0hs9ZL

“The past week has been challenging. This past 24 hours has been incredible. I can’t thank you all enough for the message of support.
“I love what I do for a living and I’m grateful I get to do it. I’m not sure what’s next, which is scary but also exciting.”
She later returned to social media, clearly overwhelmed by the level of support from the sporting public.
“Thanks for being so kind guys,” she wrote.
Meadows earned high praise for her work across several sports, particularly AFL and cricket.
