I think we may be expecting too much. Is there any commentator that is loved by all after they've been on TV for a while? They all get a bit annoying after a while. I quite like a bit of humour but of course sense of humour is an individual thing. I like JD but know he says the same things a lot. If everything in the world is annoying it's probably us who are just too critical.

Hemmings got a lot of hammer but given current crop I’d have him back in a heartbeat. That Sean Dyche wannabe yesterday was awful.

John Motson, Barry Davies, Clive Tyldsley et al

It says a lot that they are all from the past & none from Rugby League. I don't think it's easy & it's hard not to be repetitive. The commentator yesterday gets too excited for me & shouts too much but no-one is perfect. I do actually like several current cricket/rugby union commentators/pundits.
The rugby league lot seem so intent on showing what a tough game it is.

I'm sick of 'megamind' JJB with all his quack psychology and 'wisdom'. He just sounds thicker for trying.

Can we clone Vossy?

I wish, infact any of the commentators and pundits from NRL would do nicely. Would even have James Graham than some of ours. One for the future when he retires is Ryan Hall.

I don't want someone who has recently, publicly, declared his hate for us! If I was even another team's supporter I wouldn't want someone so biased commentating.

Yeh not as if Clarke or Wilkin have ever been biased as it.

Nice one Ashton.

Thought the penalty that lead to the try was rather harsh.

Great tackle by Ashton, what a day he is having so far.

Great try that he came from a long way back toget to that.

Fancied Tonga for this after last week but the discipline is woeful

Gone very scrappy now.
