| Counted 12 people to cover 2 games of rugby league and they could not even do a decent job of the quarter final draw. I have seen better presented meat raffles in my local club. Smart ar$e Wilkin at the centre of it as per usual .

| BBCs coverage and the presenters are far better on the BBC, to be honest.
I haven't watch a cup draw in years, so I couldn't care less about it.

| I thought on general the coverage was pretty good. Won is a pretty decent pundit and speaks well.
The draw was laughable though. I wouldn't normally watch it, but it was on at half time, and I was cringing. The worst of it was the draw being bigged up during commentary

| Maybe they could all wear flat caps and have a whippet each on the next programme. BBC would just love that.

| I agree and posted on the other thread how poor it was especially the draw having Chappers do it whilst Wilkin was trying to show him up.
Wane talking like he`s wheeltappers and shunters, Kear thinking he`s Eddie Waring and JJB made it a class production indeed,

| Wilkin spends too much on the BBC (in particular) trying to be funny and less so as the informed pundit he is capable of being.
It's all well and good bringing in ex-players for their unique insight, but there's a balance between hearing about their own experiences and what they actually know about the game in 2021. Sky are much better with this (IMO) than the BBC which seems fixated on presenting RL as stuck in the past, revelling in all the clips from yesteryear. I was disappointed by the lack of attention to detail from the so-called knowledgeable pundits (Peacock wasn't at his best either), and read more insightful comment on this forum. Someone with Jon Wells' level of analysis would have greatly improved the BBC coverage.
