A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain
coach.

I'm only surprised Blarney hasn't managed to worm his way into their set up as he gets everywhere else'"
Yeah, i agree.... it was a great threesome commentary team. wasnt that Voss the man that done the footy show?
Enjoyed watching the game and not getting annoyed by pish..! the wales italy game on the other hand  |

Yeah he was Channel 9's second commentator after Ray Warren from the late 90s until a couple of years ago. Some fallout saw him first demoted to regional games in Queensland before he left. He was doing NZ Warriors games for Sky New Zealand last season with Daryl Halligan who was part of todays team on Premier.
Voss will be doing around 13 games for Premier over the tournament, so will be on quite often.

I just signed up for a months subscription to Premier for the World Cup, been really impressed with Voss' enthusiasm and knowledge. The NZ/Samoa game was the highlight of the weekend, the kind of game you only see during a World Cup and the commentary reflected the party atmosphere. That one alone was worth the tenner subscription fee.

What a shame that the NZ - Samoa game wasn't on BBC for the general public to watch. A really good showing in evey aspect and likely to be the game of the tournament. The atmosphere in the second half was incredible.

always the sceptic (its my nature) , but im well impressed by the coverage, and the games. PNG - Kiwis was enthralling, I'm certainly going to watch more games and its really got me into the spirit of the WC.
ps. I kept having flashbacks about how the sky clowns might have sounded on commentary...and guess what? i just thanked the lord that they were nowhere to be seen (or heard)

The bbc coverage of the world cup is disgusting and laughable, even the highlights show is on at midnight 
The commentary on the bbc is also terrible, i will be watching all game son premier sports regardless if they are on the bbc as the coverage is so much better on premier sports |

Think we should start a Voss for Sky campaign.
How refreshing was it to hear a good commentator?

He's not just a slick commentator, he was genuinely funny during the NZ/Samoa game and his comments added to what was already an enjoyable match.
It makes such a difference to how the game comes across, especially for the neutral I'd imagine. |

Bt sports are currently freeview like Premier, I dunno if it is just for the month of october. I'm on the free minimum package with virgin and only noticed BT sports was free when I looked for Premier sports.
