| If you're a student of the game, you'll like the stats and appreciate their meaning.
If you aren't, you won't.
As for the OP, the tactical analysis is in SLFT on Sundays. Why have it on BNA as well? If you don't like it, don't watch it. But don't suggest repeating the same thing! The people that do like it miss out then for no good reason.

| Stevo likes to 'utilise the dummy runner'.
For the first 15 mins of Boots 'n' All I like to 'utilise the FFwd button'.

| Boots N All as a whole needs a complete revamp. The same panel of "experts" churning out the same tired old cliches every week is really old now. At least Clarkey has some colourful graphics to point at while he's spouting his cliches!
Bin Boots N All off and start with a clean slate. It's easily the worst Rugby League show that Sky put on each week. Super League Back Chat is miles better and that's only viewable online

| Perhaps people's opinions are more to do with Phil Clarke than his stats? He's a very wooden and false presenter, like Eddie really. They don't speak naturally when presenting. You can tell that they're reading something, or have revised their lines and are basically regurgitating what's been written down. Good presenters speak like they're having a conversation with someone. Stevo is good at this. And from what I've seen on SLBC, Rod Studd is as well (just has a face for radio!).
A good presenter would make those stats seem relevant to people that don't get them.

| He's destroying the live matches as well with the constant margin meter crap. Eddie saying on Saturday that it was spot on in predicting the Leeds win. It was Eddie yes, with 3 mins to go and after several previous attempts that it fecked right up.
Get rid of Clarkey and let him take his meter with him.

I agree, whats the point of it predicting with a few mins to go? either bin it altogether or just have one prediction at half time based on the first half.
Eddie, Steveo & Clarke are embarrasing and you can predict what they are going to say, leave Eddie in the studio to present and don't let him near a commentary microphone, Dave Woods is a much better commentator!

| I like the stats, it gives an interesting insight to the game. It does go on for way too long though.
Also agree that the entire programme needs revamping. Getting some conversation and debate going would be a nice start rather than the chummy consensus constantly.

| I think the margin meter is actually okay for one reason, it highlights the unpredictability of the game.
Even though all the stats heavily point to one result, we can often see an upset against the run of play.
I also like the statistical analysis on Boots n all. Okay it maybe drags out for a bit too long but they're an important part of the game and fans have never really been able to access the kind of stats shown easily before.
Maybe get someone who is a bit more comfortable on camera doing them though.

| I like the stats. I enjoy the first 10 minutes more than I ever did with Paul Cullens spot previously. If you don't like it then fast forward to the bit you do enjoy. The programme should include something for everyone.
