If I remember right he was chuntering on about it in the Wigan game as well. I have generally shut off to the Clarke comments

That was an awful comment to make.
The sad thing is, a few years ago I thought Clarke talked sense. He still makes some decent observations but you have to filter out too much rubbish to get to them.

I just wish they'd take some time to think about what they're saying before they opened their mouths.
Also thought Barrie had his Leeds glasses on tonight.'"
Barrie and Tez O Connor do OK for me as a 3rd/4th man in the box.
Carney is pretty good.
Other than that...

Apparently so, yeah.
I'm not quite sure how he concluded hull were embarrassed though. Was he a fly on the wall when the phone calls, presumably awkward if clarke is to believed, were made?
Was he there when the coach, presumably red faced, was there to meet the player?
I'm not really sure where he pulls this stuff from, except his .

| FWIW Russell looks a very good player and Hull have done well to get him on board to help them out.
One of those deals which suits both clubs well, even though they are in competition

I thought he said 'it is embarrassing' rather than 'they were embarrassed'.

| Stevo also abuses/over utilises the word 'utilise'.

| I used to think he was the only one of the Sky pundits who talked sense. He's got steadly worse though, & is unable to hide his Wigan bias. He's now embarassing at times.

| I'm not 100% sure but I think Matty Russell is one of Andy Clarkes (agent) clients. Russell is a superb young player and probably better at his age than Sam Tomkins was.
It's a great move from Wigan, Hull and Matty's perspective to give him the opportunity to play at 1st team level.
You all know my feelings about the academy structures in this country.

| Clarke seemed in a bad mood all night, especially towards Hull. Whenever a team dominates for 10 mins Stevo has a habit of saying they've dominated the whole game, the 08 and 09 Grand Finals he stated Leeds were poor after the first 30 mins only to say after 80 mins that we were great from start to finish.
Did laugh when he said near the end that Peter Gentle ''won't be gentle tonight, he'll be rough''.......just what he's suggesting there i dare not think about.
