ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz

love the bit about his defence, but but but you got to score tries (hand gesture)

I had to laugh when he couldn't remember where Penny had come from so he said "up north"

Dreadful pundit. I hope he's keeping JD's seat warm.

Got to agree - he's awful.

Pretty well suited with Eddie and Stevo though; what a pair of pillocks. Their inane babbling can, at times, genuinely affect my enjoyment of the game. Anyone else noticed their new favourite expressions?

Eddie - "he's been pinged for offside" (pinged?!)

Stevo - "that's a relieving penalty" (aren't they all?!)

Get rid!

Phil Clarke is most vile of them all.

to be fair, i think phil clarke is the best by absolutely miles. i think at a stretch hes even ok at wigan matches and not a bias as youd expect for a wigan fan, didnt see offiah but seen enough of hin on sky sports news to know how hopless he is too. what a set of tools the rest of them are

Phils the best of the bunch, not a big fan TBH but at least he talks some sense.

Only thing I don't like about Phil Clarke is when a well worked try goes to the video ref because it has been scored from an offside position, a massive forward pass or a knock on and because there was some skill factor involved apart from this, Clarkey says 'it deserves to be a try for the skill involved'.

Nice one Clarkey, never mind the offside or knock on or how annoyed it makes the opposite team and fans. You just call it a try for the skill involved.

Chopper!

He applies too much science, and makes me want to turn off whenever he speaks. And I'll never forget him quitting his job with the GB saying that the fans didn't care. I'm sorry, but you should never slag paying fans off, especially when part of his job is to get them interested! Zero respect from me for Phil Clarke.

He's right though, international games are poorly attended, they were before he took the role and still are, if the fans cared they would attend and support the national team.

For me he spoke the truth and attendance figures back that up.

If I remember correctly he quit as GB Manager because he had identified a number of vital areas where we needed to improve and the RFL refused to implement them.

As a result and on principle he said that he could'nt continue in the role.
