What you and many others forget is that Eddie Hemmings is actually a very decent match commentator. He may show some bias in his 'additional comments' but that does not take away from the fact that compared to Ray French and his predecessor Eddie Waring he is articulate and knowledgeable and his commentary flows effortlessly.
Add me to 'the biggest tw0t on Sky TV' club.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Reading up, i don't think that your opinion was asked for, but thanks for tuning in to the Wigan board which is obviously more interesting than yours

This board is getting increasingly overrun by moronic posts from the "fans" of other clubs. We don't seem to be able to voice an opinion on anything on this board without rabid Wigan hating muppets clogging up threads with inept/offensive/irrelevant/useless nonsense.
Mind you, its our own fault really. If we didn't support the greatest club in the world, we'd have far less envy to deal with...

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?: |

I would say Stuart Barnes takes that title.

Eddie is bad at times yes, but that Union clown Barnes is much worse! It's a good job Inverdale isn't on Sky or it would be a close call that!

| I can still remember when in a match in the early days of Superleague we were holding a narrow lead over Bradford in the closing stages. As Bradford mounted an attack under our posts and were held back Eddie and Stevo yelled in unison "come on Bradford!". They can argue til they're blue in the face that they aren't biased but I for one will never believe them.

Since they have been in the game and commentated on the game for such a long time, no wonder they are biased at times. Is it a 'sin' to prefer a certain team over another. Most fans of Rugby League will support or prefer a team over another. Can't take away their freedom to like and dislike certain teams.

They've never referred to a club as 'we' though, unlike Clarke. Funnily enough he never gets slagged off on here, I wonder why...
I'd expect every person involved in the game to be biased in some respects, for clubs they used to play for or clubs they support. You don't get involved with a sport for over 10 years and stay distant from it, which a completely unbiased person would have to be.
They are far from the most embarrassing commentators on tv, some of the football commentators are far worse. A major bonus of Setanta going under is that I woun't have to listen to Craig 'No nothing' Burley.

When you're being paid not to, then yes, basically.
