| Quote peawapp="peawapp"tonight on B.B.C.4 there is a documentary about Eddie waring the man who used our great game and turned it into a massive joke for his own ends, I couldn't stand his constant mickey taking references to Up and Under,remember the Saturday afternoon game when a dog was running up and down the touchline and they put up a caption reading K.9, He should have been ashamed of himself, say what you like about our present lot of Hemmings, Stevo, Woods and darling jonathan but at least they love the game ,.Waring didn't I will not be watching.

Over 3 hours of RL on BBC and still people complain! Love him or hate him, the documentary on Waring was excellent - a wonderful tale of rugby league history. How can you say that EW did not love the game? He devoted most of his life to it and he was always miles better than Ray French (discuss!).

| If people had watched the documentary it was said on there that Wareing was either hated or loved, personally I couldnt stand his commentaries, but after watching the documentary now know why they were so bad, and the game after just about summed it up his commentary on it was appalling, but it seems as though that was the start of his dementia problems.
We have a similiar scenario with Robbie Paul he gets us more TV time than we have ever got yet some can't see past his on the field time, even though he has only just recovered from major surgery and has been carrying a wrist injury for months.
So what if Peawap didnt watch the documentary and slagged Eddie Wareing off, thats life and Peawaps entitled to his opinion just like us all.
And yes I enjoyed the documentary, the game, the second documentary and the film.
EW may have been a 'joke' to some but since he went we get sod all mention on terrestial TV.

I thought the documentary on EW was very good. I didn't know too much about him but now I do. Havn't watched the second documentary yet but I enjoyed the final. Very, very tough players with a large amount of skill, very enjoyable. I fell asleep watching This Sporting Life but I intend to watch it all another time.

| I thought the doc about Eddie W was excellent a true visionary of RL and did hell of a lot
to promote RL in his time with the BBC watching the final 10 mins or so was very sad
it made a lot of sense re Eddies last year commentating on the beeb......
Love him or hate him Eddie W was a true legend of RL and deserves respect from everyone for his achievments in the game, without Eddies involvment in game shows ect ect RL would never have had so much exposure in the media... Top Man. Like it said at the end when he went to his final game at Headingley with his son and was spotted by the crowd who all stood up and gave him a massive applause which brought him to tears....
My fav saying of Eddie was when Leigh played in the 71 final and he said the scoreboard
is all lite up with eeeeeeeelecric lights
Come on BBC lets have more of the same !!!!!!!!!!!!
