For all you heathens out there it was precisely explained on tonight's Boots 'N All.
Perfectly summed up by Hemmings when he asked Clarke 'how the fook did Leeds win Super League last season' ?
To which the answer was that they played better in the play-offs than they did during the regular rounds.
Clearly money well spent.

Try track was sometime interesting, sometimes awful. It could be interesting when someone had scored after several repeat sets, however, when there was a 100m try or the like, it was just a straight line. Also, it took no account of where the ball went, just the points at which the ball was played. Had it have been the former it'd have been better. I'd say have a range of these tools, and bring them out when relevant |

Call me old fashioned but I can live without any of this gubbins. Show me the rugby, show me replays, give me articulate and interesting commentators and analysts and I'll be as happy as a pig in Wigan. |

I think you malign John Wells & Brian Carney, even, heaven forbid, Phil Clarke on occasions.
FWIW I thought that some of his analysis on BnA last night was interesting.
On a similar tack, how on earth did the Giant's win the Superbowl when you look at thier stats.
Except of course that the NEP's defence was practically the worst in the NFL.
I like the use of stats but they are only an indication never the answer. |

Does he not get bored of putting the boot into people who are managing to make a living doing things he failed at - if it's not captaining Leeds to trophies, it's coaching SL teams or working as an analyst in the media?
What's next - Schoey's guide to running a successful boozer, or managing your personal finances?

I try and keep Garry Schofield the legend player and Garry Schofield the person as different people. Just so it doesn't blur the lines.
His League Express columns are slightly more stomachable than his ramblings in The Star. |

His "journalistic" output in general is more stomachable if you eat it than read it... |
