SCA registers domain names for Sophie Monk and Jules Lund

Sophie Monk and Jules Lund appear likely to be the next Kyle and Jackie O on Sydney’s 2Day FM after Southern Cross Austereo registered web domain names for the pair.

Sophie Monk, Jules Lund and Merrick Watts, have been speculated to be the favourites for the Breakfast show, however there is no mention of Watts in the domain names registered by SCA: sophandjules.com, julesandsoph.com, and sophieandjules.com.

According to the Australian domain registration services, Southern Cross Austereo Pty Ltd created the domain names on October 15.

Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O announced on November 1 that their show would come to an end later this month after weeks of speculation about contract negotiations.The pair had just been named best metro on air team at the Commercial Radio Australia Awards and their show had remained number one in the Sydney commercial FM battle for much of its run.

Monk joined the Today Network in September as a co-host of a new national weekend breakfast show with Dave Thornton, who will also co-host of the Today Network’s breakfast show in Melbourne with Fifi Box.

Box’s move also means an end to Fox FM’s drive time show with Jules Lund, who will be leaving the show after three years but has not yet confirmed where he will be going next.

Southern Cross Austereo declined to comment on the new domain names.
