In short:

Antony Green is stepping down as the national broadcaster's chief election analyst after more than three decades.

He will continue to work behind the scenes on election-related projects.

Green joined the ABC in 1989 and has provided live analysis of about 100 state and federal elections.

He isn't a genius. ABC should pay him to supervise a replacement analyst/presenter for the next election. Simple.

We just don't expect public figures to do their jobs well like he did. I wish he was the norm.

They've basically been doing that. His replacement has been on the ABC in a secondary role for most elections over the last few years. It's been pretty apparent that he was being groomed to replace Antony Green once Green retires.
