Hemmings is a disgrace on Sky. He blatantly laughed out loud at the prospect of Daz Clarke being injured. The whole game for him was how many Wire players could be pick out with problems for Wembley.
I bet he was upset when SP gave an update that only Mitch Brown was a real concern and the others ok.

He’s a sad St.Widnes loving Wire hater

I was at his book signing in Warrington, I asked him about being anti Warrington, he just laughed says it all really.

Nice bloke, but he REALLY doesn't like us.

Makes me smile, when I occasionaly go on other sites, and other fans think he's a Wire supporter.
They need to take more water with it.
A deep dislike of us, which seeps through into his commentary/presenting.

I pine for the day, when you can have (permanently, it does happen on a few occasions) [icrowd noise only[/i as an option, when watching live sport.
Don't get me started on punditry. TV gets muted during half time.

+1

Hemmings is SO biased against us its embarrassing. Its not even subtle...its blatant. Can't stand the bloke....total end of a bell.
And another thing..how on earth can Jon Wells...Director of Rugby at Castleford, provide unbiased analysis of any game involving Castleford...ridiculous situation...laughable the way he bigs up all the Cas players for Man of Steel.

It's times like this that I actually miss Stevo.

Seeing this thread just confirms to me how correct Tony Smith was in his assessment of Hemmings.

Not got the game in corfu. Can someone please confirm that Eddie is crying. It would make my day
Thanks

I thought TS gripe was with sky.

Started watching from the start of the second half last night. Hit mute almost immediately and didn't unmute until the post match interviews.

Not overall no, Hemmings is a different story however.

I missed that one.

What was his assessment?

I don't know about him being anti Wire but he is deffo pro saints. I'm going back a few years but Cas were leading Saints 8-6 and with a few minutes to go. Saints got a penalty and a very exited Eddie said "what we desperately need now is a bit of Sean Long magic to win the game"

It’s literally every game now for me that Hemmings commentates on, I mute the sound and listen to music through headphones.. And it’s not just him it’s Wells touting Paul McShane for MOS every 5 mins.. And the god awful Stuart Cumming constantly making excuses why the referee has cocked up again !
The commentary and punditry team is long overdue a freshen up ..

I actually do miss Stevo I hate the commentary now it just distracts from the game for me. Being able to just hear the crowd and ref would be amazing if it was an option
