Quote: Gronk! " The best person Sky had was John Davies during the world cup, an actual presenter who came across well and made the broadcast look professional.'"


I agree. Had never heard of him before that but was really impressed - he was very professional, just what we lack and what we really need. I would be happy with him in the studio, bring over an Aussie commentator to just call the game and back them up with Carney and Wells.
Put Eddie and Stevo out to grass and send Clarke back to Wigan.

Quote: Andy Gilder "The only issue I've got is the constant need to find controversy in everything - to judge every call made by the officials down to the finest margins, without taking account of why they may have made the calls they did.

The Australians don't do this in their coverage. Sure, they'll pick up on real refereeing howlers, but they tend to spend the rest of the time talking the game up rather than looking for reasons to be hyper-critical of players and officials.'"


The key difference between our coverage and the Aussie coverage, is that when a ref calls a player/captain over to talk - they shut the hell up and listen. Eddie and Stevo ramble on about the slightly off-green colour of the grass or the cous-cous they ate when SL kicked off in Paris, then when the player runs back in to the line they scream "well I wonder what that was all about .. he's obviously just had a word with him about something" ..... icon_mad.gif icon_mad.gif icon_mad.gif a026.gif

Stevo must be the worst commentator of RL ever, he's so out of touch it beggars belief.
Never played Super League and boy does it show. He's so so out of touch with the modern game,
just retire him and send him back to Aussie where he's obviously happy.

They are out of touch and lack basic knowledge and make things up to suit there own argument.

On boots n all they were banging on about Gentle and Sandercock and said that no head coach from australia had come to super league since John Monie. So Nathan Brown was not a head coach then when he came across.

When commentating they go off on there own little agendas and ignore the game.

I'm not one for jumping on a bandwagon, but I think Stevo should be put into the studio. You could cut and paste the same commentary from every game as he only uses about 20 different sentences.

I don't honestly know who i'd replace him with, I like Jon Wells and Brian Carney, Tony Rae used to be superb too, far better than Paul Cullen.

Eddies good I think, and I like Graham Beecroft too, good addition.
