Neither glass half full or empty. Just a realist.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_49863.jpg



It's like Groundhog Day with these clowns. Everyone of them make me want to sick carrots.
Hemmings is just becoming a bitter old man. Around the time of the Briers for Britain campaign, and our entertaining style style under Cullen, he used to give us a fair crack of the whip. However, since the CC wins, he's resorted to what he is, a bitter Widnesian. End of.
Stephenson. Obviously a RL Superfan, but a total ladies pocket.
Laurel and Hardy are just a couple of Berks.
Brian "one for the ladies" Carney has been seen walking down a Lovers Lane, holding his own hand.
Bill Arthur would make a skull yawn.
Jon Wells is the worst pundit/analyst in ANY televised sport. Embarrasing.
Angela Powers is just reading off an A4 piece of paper during a game.
The only one I'd keep, and he's hardly ever on, is Rod Studd, and he's not exactly great.
It's now got to the point where I only turn it on at 7:55, so I know the teams.


Don't get me started on those muppets on Radio Manchester and Merseyside.

Eddie is a bitter Wire hating man. He shouldn't be allowed to commentate on Wire games, he hates us too much to be impartial. He always talks with a negative spin on everything we do; "question marks over that pass to Atkins" for that try, no there wasn't as they were both on the run and Momentum comes in. His comments on Clark last night were an utter disgrace and he should come out and apologise to Clark for it.

Stevo is a top RL man but he talks absolute rubbish 75% of the time and if he lies on tele again about what Chris Sandow "said" he should be sacked on the spot as it's continual slander. He should come out and apologise to Sandow for it.

John Wells shouts too much and gets everyone's names wrong all the time. He also came out with the lie about Chris Sandow a few weeks ago and should come out and apologise to him for it.

Terry O'Connor talks absolute rubbish all the time. He brings no insight to the team at all.

Stuart Cummins is a know-nowt monotone ex-ref who constantly gets his analysis wrong.

Phil Clarke used to be an unbearable Wire hater but now he's alright about us.

Brian Carney, Barrie McDermott and Angela Powers are fine and you don't see or hear enough of the others to comment.

As a team though they seem to really have it on for us.

Poor Eddie was nearly apoplectic at the end when talking to Phil Clark. He couldn't even disguise his bile against Wire. And all we heard from the analysis was how good Catalan were. If he is not removed from Warrington games I will unsubscribe from Sky and do without my rugby fix. What a bitter man.
Why don't we start a campaign by all those who subscribe to Sky Sports and write to Sky threatening to end our payments unless they do something about the Widnes,Saints and Wigan loving disgrace.

I wrote to Sky complaining about their Super League coverage at the start of the season. I asked why we went from having Backchat, Boots'N'All, hour long long All The Tries, hour long Super League Superstars, Championship games, NRL State Of Origin games, 40mins highlights On Demand plus two or three live games a week...to just half hour long All The Tries, 15mins highlights On Demand and two or three live games a week and that's it. Plus they don't advertise us - we were missed off their "Summer Of Sport" advert despite probably being well worthy of being on it on viewing figures.

They said "well you can get all your rugby league on line now on the Rugby League section of the Sky Sports website". But that is quite pitiful really when you think what we used to get. It feels like they're phasing us out.

BT sport seem to be snapping up everything else, fingers crossed they want rugby league as well. Freshen up commentary and maybe get more games and exposure. Sky have done a lot for the game though really but the current offering is a bit poor mostly because of the commentary team, they make RL look stupid and seem to spout only utter nonesense and controversy.

Our first try Eddie is very quick to say there was a question mark over the final pass. Says nothing beforehand about it being a great break by Sandow, and the support play.

The Catalan first try that looked forward from the hands he says it's a great short ball, and we were foxed all ends up.

hello wolves.congratulations on your win.I was at the match and the pass for your first try looked about a metre forward,but there is the momentum rule and these passes are usually given .In truth you got lucky because we have an idiot at number 9 and in a close game something like that really matters.At the time I thought both the disallowed tries were valid,but the replay showed that neither was .It is a pity that the faking of joy,a la football ,is creeping into our game. I cannot believe that Russell did not know he had not scored.All in all a close game where a draw would have been a fair result.

I'm aghast having watched it back.... the Ashton sims high tackle created more shock horror and outrage from the two boballs than the Spear tackle from Gigot.

as they did about Briers once, they banged on about how Sims will probably miss a match now because the match review commission will look at it......(and what a very good job they do - said Cummings ). not an ounce of blame was aimed at Gigot because "he put his hand up". Not one single mention that this catalan club have a history of that type of tackle this season. Nothing about that being reviewed and getting a ban. what do they talk about......yep Ashton sims earlier high tackle.

Hemmings' shout of "Really" when informed that the Catalan try could be chalked off for the high tackle on Gidley was unadulterated anti Wire at its best. he didnt make a single comment on the high tackle itself which was odd considering his views On Ashton Sims high tackle earlier.........

quite bizarrely Phil Clarke (and Mcdermott who i do like) was the only voice of reason in the commentary box.

I hope Eddie finds it unbearable without his stupid friend next season and also retires.........

The bit that I really hate is the Stevo spout about Sandow (last season) prior to every wire game. It really is pathetic. The man obviously is never given any feedback about his performance or ever reviews his own comments. Surely you would look back and review what you said last time a team was on TV ... but no. He just keeps coming out with the same old same old crap. Sky are negligent.

Pity the RFL is run like a circus:Black Backgrounds/Waldorf.gif



The only fake I saw on Friday night was Stevo making out he knew what he was talking about, I am glad the silly pair of feckers are retiring at last they bring nothing to the table.

To be honest Eddie and Stevos comments about Wire don't bother me in the slightest.
I just let it wash over me.
I like having Ganson there as he puts both Eddie and Stevo in their place at times with an impartial refs view.
The Sky concept of having Wells doing detailed technical analysis and end of match discussion with a player / coach is good and on the whole I enjoy this, but I do agree that he can be too shouty at times. I'd like him to be given more time so it's less rushed.
No probs with O'Conner or the others.
Clearly Carney will take over from E&S with probably Tez and Baz alternating.
