| He was particularly bad tonight though ya could sort of see his point. Wigan brought in Michael Maguire an "unknown" assistant from Australia (though very highly regarded at probably the best team) and now other clubs i.e. Salford, Hull KR are going down the same route rather than offering the roles to a British coach.

| We bring in Aussie coaches because the majority of British ones are sh*te.

| I saw an interview he did with Stuart Barnes regarding RU & RL. Stevo was simply embarrasing !
He simply had no decent arguments, whereas Stuart Barnes gave some good well thought out answers. Stevo just came across as a bitter and idiotic.

| Did he not mean it as in to say 'I Blame Michael Maguire for coming over here and being so good, breezing through Super League winning everything even the most notorious British coach couldnt (with wigan) proving that Aussie coaches are superior?'

| Are Wiggy and Slaphead actually answerable to anyone?
They are picky, bitter and biased in almost all their commentaries. They are disliked widely within the game. They do it down rather than talk it up. And yet they continue as the voices of British RL - well paid, lording it at RL parties - a position they've enjoyed unchallenged for 20 years or so.
Is there no-one above them to say 'time for a change'?

| The point Stevo was trying to make was valid but he went about making it in a completely cack-handed and pig-headed manner. When a team is succesful it is only natural for some in the competition to try and copy their model for success but to say that it's the successful team that is to blame for that is just stupid

They certainly put me off watching the Sky coverage. The best solution is to put it on, but turn the sound down low and get a few of your mates in with beer, thus drowning out the endless whingeing and whining.

I'm hoping that someone working at Sky is planning a Keys and Gray-style stitch up on these two. For the good of the sport!

Once upon a time, if you'd told me that there would be a 1 hour RL show on every week, I'd have been delighted. I remember the bad old days when there was almost no RL at all on the telly.
However, I also never watch Boots n All as I can't abide the 2 of them. It's not just the anti-Wigan stuff either. It's the totally shambolic way they present, simultaneously looking like they're making it up as they go along & also reading very badly from an autocue. Why is it only RL who get 'comedy' presenters? Does anybody know anyone who actually likes these 2?

| Their commentary during games doesn't help the game becasue all they want to talk about is controversy even when there isn't any. They rarely talk about good play in the way that the NRL commentators do. The sooner SKy get rid of the pair of jokers the better.
