| Barnes is too busy picking fault with any player/coach with a rugby league background to comment on the local spoons. A very bitter man who isn't popular in Rugby Union circles.

Take them as barometers of commentary excellence then flick back to Vossy and Nobby. See if you see any difference.
I wonder if Gary Neville will make reference to Macari's chippy at OT, or Stuart Barnes the William Webb Ellis Spoons in Twickers, or Bob Willis the amature cricket clubs in Perth or Coultard local tyre suppliers in Abu Dhabi....
Are you starting to see how these cheap commentators pull the game down inadvertently whilst trying to satisfy the humour of a few pit workers in the north'"
You are hilarious! All this 'high and mighty' from a Broncos fan?
Hope you enjoy your rugby next season. Please promise not to speak to anyone about your game day experiences, you will only put them off the sport!
Sad individual you are.

| Sky's cricket commentary, and the BBC's on Test Match Special, to me, is the best out there. Everything else lags behind. Voss (and Noble) have brought a warmth to the commentary which adds a little more colour to the action. Can't see any negatives in it.

| No negatives for me, Voss and Noble are a great commentary team. As for the humour of Bumble on the cricket and the Premier team for the wc, I think the key thing is you feel as if you're laughing with them and not at them as we have seen with some RL commentators

| Bumble frequently refers to local cricket and such things as pies in Bolton and then rambles on about what gig he attended the previous evening.
Perfect foil for the 'sophistication' of Gower etc.
Yes there is a place foe Voss if it can be balanced against someone more acceptable to audiences on a wider scale.

What a halfwit you are. Just because you enjoy a certain style of commentary doesn't mean it's commentary excellence.
Sky RU commentary? The same Sky RU commentary despised by rugby union fans in England and around the world?
Fuck me. Is Stuart Barnes still part of their team? Get over yourself you boring pleb.

Hi Ho Hi Ho down the pit we go......
One day we will realise its the games parochialism that's holding it back.
That's why we have global brands such as Foxy Bingo etc as our sponsors.

| Quote Ferocious Aardvark="Ferocious Aardvark"Did they? You noted each and every bag, analysed, classified and recorded it, and are now speaking from your logs?
You really are a muppet, all the biggest games are on BBC, they wouldn't have covered every game so the fact that Premier does, and that it is available free millions of homes, is just icing on the cake. But you are so silly, you probably do think if they hadn't given it to Premier, Beeb or ITV would be televising it all.
Fook me, and now you know how many subscribers Premier have! We're supposed to believe they share their commercial secrets with you?
.. yep, especially for sing on your bonfire...
Really? So, you ALSO know how many Virgin customers have watched and will watch the games!
What is this "reality" of which you speak? Is that on a hotline-to-Branson basis, or a hotline to Mystic Meg basis? "Reality" my arrse! You just [ihope[/i no Virgin viewers will tune in; that isn't the same thing as "reality" - [iof course[/i it will make a difference, you buffoon!
a) Premier televising it as opposed to nobody televising it makes a stonking great difference, ie from Zero to the number who watch it on Premier!
b) Virgin adding the coverage makes another big difference, adding those who have Virgin but not access to Premier!
But you know, the best thing about it all is how much the success of all aspects has got you foaming at the mouth.
'"
BARB are where the fact lie.....6,500 subscribers is what Premier declare themselves and that was before they lost conference wendyball and whilst the RLWC is brilliant, it is generally RL fans that think so......check out the Sunday papers for a reality check if needed.

| Voss and Noble (and Robbie HP/Dave Woods) have been brilliant, entertaining and a million light years ahead of the 2 knobs on sky
