Seriously? Does anything else need to be said after that?

Whole sets of six passed with the ball in our possession when barely a Wigan player was named because they were too busy talking about Lewis, Parcell and Lytton.

Very one sided tonight. Barrie Mc in particular did not want a Wigan win

They were an absolute disgrace tonight.

I love that HKR are improving and investing on and off the field but they were going on.

Hull KR spend the salary cap just like we do, so the “getting behind the underdog” theory just doesn’t cut it.


Where’s this Wigan aren’t expansive come from?

Couple of weeks where we’ve grinding out wins with our 5th chance half back.

They all had shockers tonight and glad we shut them up.

It's probably because he's still smarting from us putting Leeds out of the cup

Bizarre to think he once played for Wigan. He literally couldn't be more anti Wigan if he had Saints tattooed on one cheek, Warrington on the other and Leigh across his forehead! Glad we shoved it back down his throat though.

They are crap in general but tonight was particularly embarrassing

The few minutes before the kick off were absolutely the worst I have heard from them - they didn't half build up HKR as something out of this world they are having a great season and playing well fair dos but not to the extent that they were being built up. The commentator really needs to concentrate on watching the game more - he was so off it it was untrue - for ages he was going on about there being no set restarts when there had been one early in the first half (one of many HKR got gifted) and was always talking about things that happened five minutes earlier!

Sky's coverage is poor in general anyway - they love long lingering close ups of the coaches whilst play is going on and at one point they were so busy showing replays two HKR runs that lead nowhere that they missed two Wigan PTBs that where on going. And why do they need so many pundits? They are going to have more that the teams have players the way they are going and most add absolutely nothing to the discussion anyway.

That was utterly ludicrous! Willie Peters acknowledged several times that they are building towards where Wigan are. Like others have said, I'm really impressed with what KR are building but to suggest they are currently better than Wigan is off the scale stupid. They have no one even close to French or Field for example.

The commentary last night was an absolute joke and Barrie Mac would be played by Joaquin Phoenix if they ever made a movie of it.

Yeah. They were extremely annoying last night.
A few things I noticed were the differences in the commentary descriptions of similiar scenarios.

e.g. HKR's winger caught a high ball and it was a "great take", but when Miski did exactly the same, he was "holding on to the ball for dear life".
Mago stripped a ball while tackling the man perfectly, but it was described as a "desperation tackle".

I found it incredibly one-sided.

Yes I noticed those examples too, for much of the game I had to keep checking the score because the tone of the commentary suggested we were being outclassed rather than actually..you know winning...it always seemed Eddie and Stevo weren't sorry to see us lose but I've often thought what sounds like support for the opposition is perhaps just me viewing through cherry and white specs and the presentation is just trying to manufacture an 'event' and talk up the opposition for the neutral but last night was astonishing it was bordering on "fake news", literally misreporting things we could see with our own eyes.

Aside from the bias, the commentary team needs shaking up. Numerous wrong naming, ignoring of developing action to waffle on about something irrelevant and multiple factual inaccuracies from commentators and pundits. The thrilling climax where Miski dived in to score was dismissed and belittled, if we want to help spread the game none of this helps. NRL commentary on a game like that would have added to the cadences of the action not hindered it

Also, just basic stuff, like, there's enough of them, can't they keep track of substitutions and inform the viewer when it happens? How often do you hear them say, "Shorrocks (or whoever), who's on the field now...", and I think, I know, he's been on for the last 15 minutes. And yes, very poor on Miski's wonderful effort.

Dave Woods last week early on
Holroyd was injured in back play,he said it was Gannon. Gannon then took the ball in so he announced "he seems fine now" + Holroyd was still getting tended to in the same place. Lots of tackles missed due to showing us the coaches or famous people in the crowd

Dreadful that wasn’t it! I noticed Holroyd go down at the game and thought it could be a huge moment and then you listen to that from Woods. They’ll always make mistakes I guess and Dave Woods is not too bad most of the time.

We need to keep this thread going, week after week. From now on, these men need to be monitored and exposed for what they are.
