Cummings is a waste of time,as he goes out of his way not to criticise the match officials.

i just don`t think they should be involved in any dialogue the video refs have , there in direct coms with them and it shouldnt be right , i didnt see the end of the game but i saw i saw 2 video ref decisions the amor and laffranchi tries and both times they were on about double movements and grounding , time will come when 1 of skys blue riband sides will come unstuck against say salford , and stevo will try to influence a decision , big screen replays should be there for every fixture or none at all and this is another reason why

Do the refs receive the audio,as well as the picture ?
In any event,I think they should have video professionals operating the kit,and refs making the decisions.
It's painful,and there's enough pressure making the decision in timely fashion without faffing about with the kit

The VR's don't get the commentary. Even if they did surely if any of them were tempted to base their interpretations of the laws of the game on Stevo's bizarre drivel they'd be immediately removed from the refereeing roster and promptly sectioned.

This. I am, frankly, amazed that anyone would suggest otherwise.

I wonder whether it is worth writing a letter to Sky or starting a petition to get that fat bald w*nker removed from the commentary and off our screens. He is a self obsessed cringe worthy sad individual - a cretin!

His interpretation of the rules are so far off the mark it becomes embarrassing for the sport and his constant piping on with the same dialogue year in year out is tantamount to torture by TV.

He should also be reprimanded for his abusive comments all re Salford but in particular his references to Dr. Marwan Koukash or in his words "Mr Nocash" - I would be delighted if Marwan took the higher ground and refused him admission to the stadium and let him do his sh/te sky commentary from the roadies truck!

The old guard at Sky should have been cleared out with the new Sky deal and Andrew Voss should have been high on their priority list to anchor the games and boots'n'all.

Yep as you can see I particularly hate the c*nt!

Rant over!

Back to topic as Yorkie has said, we are told that the VR does not hear Stevo's drivel however I am not sure they have not got the game on a TV/Mobile/Tablet and are listenning to the idiot!?

PS. I once heard it was a game against Salford that ended the pr/cks career? Anybody know any truth of that?

Did he not end his career in Australia?

He is one or the reasons I will not invest in SKY currently, while he is obviously a fan of the game it is also obvious that he is more and more distant from the realities of the game currently. I agree Andrew Voss would be my choice but you have to wonder if SKY could tempt him to relocate to the UK and then would they give a team worthy of his talents or make ends meet?. I quite like John Kear when he speaks about the game as he does from both a coaches and a fans perspective, anyone who has seen the series on SLTV of him helping to preview this coming season will know he is very good value for money.

He did, so not exactly ending his career but something somewhere tells me I heard there was a bigger reason for his hatred in all things Salford?

He's a bigot?

Oh yeah and a Yonner, bit of a double whammy really.

nothing struck me in his "auto"biography.

Also, a reminder of that game at Wilderspool where we needed to win to stand any chance of avoiding the drop. It was on Sky and he was full of admiration for the team's efforts AND the attitude of the Salford fans. Cannot remember the year.
I had Sky then and taped the game.

Are you sure you understand 'taking the higher ground'?

Figuratively speaking moral superiority.

Yes,I was going to comment earlier,along similar lines.
Stevo's heart is in the right place,whereas Eddie seems to have a bitterness about us.
But,from a commentary viewpoint,they need to be moved on and replaced.

And being childish and trying to prevent someone from doing their job fits that how exactly?
