Why is there so many of them involved these days? Do we really need Eddie, stevo, clarke and carney all in the commentating booth? Football has one commentator and one summariser and it works just fine. I'd get Bill Arthur in to do the commentary if they can't think of anyone else and let that guy of SSN (think his name is John Davies) who presented the last world cup down under have the Hemmings anchorman job. You don't need to be an authority on rugby league to be a good, enthusiastic presenter, Clare Balding proved that.

I would love to see carney replace hemmings.

On talksport the other week they asked him 'so how did sky get to create super league and the game we have today.. and eddie started his reply with something like"well i was in Australia watching wigan play the australian champions........."

yea it was all your idea eddie.. well done.

I must be ill, I find myself agreeing with you. The commentary has changed this season, instead of talking about the play there seems to be too much emphasis on referees decisions. I know you won't agree with me, but Phil Clarke should not be on when Wigan are playing, the bias shows through so much.

I think a John Wells staight man Brian Carney funny guy could work. They both know what they are talking about, both have modern banter and it might stop me having to put up with Wells shouting at me at half time. Inside voice John would be a lot better.

As for Clarkey, I will probably be lambasted for this, but he's a character, he's a fan of the game, you hear it when he makes his silly squeals and shouts. I think this impulse would stop him from bagging a commentary job, put give him time to prepare and he'd present the facts and stats quite well.

For me. Wells is the new Eddie, Carney the new Stevo and give Clarke Wells' job, pre, half and post match summeriser. And he doesn't have to shout at us from the pitch either, add a touch of professionalism to it.

I do agree with you about Clarkey, but on the flip side he does seem to like Wire and the way they play. I like the way Clarke summarises though, he has a great knowledge of the game. Stevo on the other hand has no idea about the modern game and when he gets into a little arguement about anything technical with either Clarke or Carney he tends to get shown up. What is even more embarrassing is when he goes on Sky Sports News giving it the whole "its the greatest game" stuff and shouting at the camera, change the record Stevo, your boring and nobody likes you.

He needs to get rid of the margin metre, or whatever it's called. At one time it was predicting a 30 point win for Wigan and there was never a chance of that. Applied to RU, where territory is everything and forcing penalties is looked upon as a major victory it would work, but not in RL.

The margin meter is cringeworthy and far too "American" although I dont think Clarke is 100% to blame, he must have been told to create something like this from Sky and got the go ahead from them.

The margin meter is something that could potentially work, but RL is completely the wrong sport to use it in. In a game like basketball, where statistics can be compiled on things like +/-, per 100 possessions and pace, they could use something to potentially guess a possible score through averages developed during an 82 game season. But RL is <30 game season, sides only meat each other twice and there are far too many players involved to try and develop statistical performance when squads vary week on week.

They should just scrap the margin meter and go for a Soccer Saturday-esque prediction at the start from the pundits, then bring it up at the end to see who was closest.

Can't stand Hemmings to be honest, its nothing personal but he's too politically correct with his opinions, when a few handbags at dawn scuffles break out his comments are cringeworthy, "we don't need that in our game". Wake up fella, its virtually a full contact sport these days with plenty of adrenelin and testosterone flowing, Eddie comes across as an out dated company man.

I would have a word with Dave Woods - quality commentator and loves his RL

Wells, Carney & Cullen would work for me.

A very sad sign of things to come when posters cannot think for themselves.

ditch Sky and watch on the internet in Polish or Norwegian.
