He said the names wrong. He never looks confortable on camera and gets quite a lot wrong. He tries to talk to fast. Some stage school would be good for him icon_biggrin.gif

He was a great Rugby League player, leave him alone!

On a serious note, the way the game comes across on tv is getting worse. We need better people on board to make the game look and sound better. Not sure what the answer is really. I would love to see more of McRae, I though he used to be really good. I would also like to see more of the top coaches as guests like Maguire, Brown and Smith, talking in depth about the game and what they think. John Wells does a decent job, I would like to see him using a screen as used on Super Sunday the last word. Lets be honest as well, Eddie and Stevo are well past it. Phil C, like him or loathe him comes across very well on TV and is very confortable infront of the camera. I think Cullen should be more involved on sky matchdays as well, he is also very confortable on screen and makes some good points IMO. Finally get some past players on there who are better educated on certain sides of the game, rather than just Baz and Terry, being prop forwards they don't exactly have the same knowledge as someone like Paul Sculthorpe, I would love to see him on sky.

Pundit (As this thread would point to)
Coach (see Leeds Rhinos 2011 Record to Date this year or Quins RL since 2006)
Agent (he was like a leech with some of the players at Quins RL)

John Wells I like.......he is intelligent, knowledgeable and doesn't drool like the other do when SamTomkins manages to tie his laces

may be a good salesman!!!!!!!!!but don't half talk poop about the game......cullen i admire as a analyst (some may disagree but that's personal choice..) honestly i don't think he (martin offiah) knows what's going on...again people will disagree but that's how i view it.....

As I've said before, Offiah & Brian Carney are in the wrong jobs.

Offiah needs to be a presenter rather than a pundit, and Brian Carney is great as a pundit, but wooden as a presenter.

Has Carney taken great delight in "the rugby gods" delivering potentially career ending injuries to players?

Sky should have had the knackers to show Clarke the door the minute he put that article on their website.

I would suspect that the management at SKY would prefer their pundits to write interesting and thought provoking articles to be honest

Whether you agree or disagree with what he said (or believe that he should have been fired for saying it), the reason SKY have these articles on the site is to create comment and generate activity – I would guess it did both of those

As for whether he should have sacked due to the content, I would be surprised if the management team at SKY even noticed it let alone felt it was a disciplinary issue

Jon Wells is pretty good, seems like a natural to me and I would like to see him progress from the pitchside to play a bigger role. Carney and Baz are good as pundits with a bit of craic. Tez and Offiah for me are just awful.

I can see Jon Wells being the main summariser if the Eddie and Stevo show are shown the door (I wouldn't mind Eddie and Wells in tandem to be honest)

I know that people like Stevo and consider him a character but I would prefer the commentary team to be informative rather than just funny! (plus, I'm sure that Wells' tactical insight will be a little more than "a little chip over the top" - if I hear that phrase one more time from Stevo, I'll throw my beer through the TV)
