Haven't watched it yet though I have to say this news comes as little surprise. |

Does anyone actually like the Sky commentary? Usually you’d get a few people saying it’s alright and they don’t mind it but it seems 100% of viewers detest it (fwiw I agree).

Stevo at least used to be a love hate marmite character.
Barrie McDermott offers something a little bit similar, Brian Carney at least has some knowledge of what’s going on. I like Jon Wells but he only seems to do analysis rather than commentary.

Has the bloke been drinking? He's never shut up. What's the boss of Sky Sports called? Barney Francis? Doesn't he realise that Sky, having paid millions for the rights to broadcast Rugby League are then employing this uneducated bloke O'Connor who causes committed RL fans to switch off, never mind the wider Middle England potential audience. Incompetence all round. |

I think it's time for Hemmings to hang up his Mike.
He's been doing for over 20yrs he's now making daft mistakes with players, clubs etc
The others I can tolerate because they only do short pieces.

Agreed the programme was off air before the players had left the pitch. maybe even Sky can't stand listening to the cast.

Typical of this board.
Sky bring you even more live RL games over this weekend, but theres complaints that they didn't give enough time to pundits which you moan about anyway.
