| He ought to be driving that bus they named after him in Warrington not commentating. Been watching Ryder Cup and the difference in the neutral commentators and Mr Grecian 2000 are glaringly obvious

He got excited in the second half whenever saints came close to making a half break - he said "now then" more times than Jimmy Saville!
He was willing saints to come back right up to the end. Fair play to Stevo though, he gave credit to the Wigan team and fans - as did Shaun McRae.

Eddie, through gritted teeth managed to be polite, well Eddie - F*ck you! We are the champions

| Hemmings did make comment about "what if ", those two Saints players Redmond and Pryce hadn't been injured ?
I can't do with him.

Did anyone bother to respond: "And what if Amos Roberts had still been showing his early season form, and had been selected? And what if Pat Richards hadn't limped off and left the kicking duties to his understudies?"
Something tells me nobody did. And if they had, that he wouldn't have responded.
The guy is pathetic.

| He is going to be soooooooooooooo miserable next year having to call us 'the champions' all season. Any money he finds some way round it as it will stick in his throat.

| I used to always think that these type of threads were unfair, I don’t think Phil Clarke is particularly biased towards us, yes he’s bigged us up big time this season, but that because he thinks we are the best side, he always bigged up Stains / Leeds / Bradford in the past when they were the best teams and rightly so.
I did think that Wiganers were looking at Eddie and Stevo’s commentary and being harsh as they try to be neutral, but I can’t defend Eddie anymore. The whole sky presentation revolved around it being Cunningham’s last game. Yes, he was a true great of the game and you could see the respect all players gave him during the handshakes at the end of the game. As far as Eddie was concerned you could tell his disappointment at us spoiling the ‘fairytale’ ending for KC’s career. You’d think we were party poopers and not champions, any credit he gave us was definitely through gritted teeth.

| In Hemming's defence, I still think he is the best 'commentator' of the game around at the moment. Much better than my alter ego, it has to be said. His 'punditry' is a different matter and yes he does let his antipathy to Wigan show too easily. But it just adds to the entertainment value as far as I am concerned.

You've established yourselves as the 4th best club in Super League era.
Time to kick on and try catch the teams above you
Been for 10 years but still only 2 titles behind you and 1 behind Bradford not bad seeing as youve dominated the game!!!

| You could really tell that Eddie hated, not just winning Wigan winning, but the manner in which they won.

He'll just ignore it. Eddie won't use the C word if he can help it.
