Would be too much to ask for the presenters (Bill Arthur this time) to give some credit where it's due? Every excuse in the book was made, apparently (according to Terry O'Connor) all 7 of our tries came off Warrington mistakes. Bill Arthur gave a summary of Tony Smith's post match Interview and honestly must have been listening to something completely different.

Thought Tony Smith spoke very well after the match. One of the few coaches giving us credit for the victory against their team.

Typical. No more than we expect from Sky

The one where it was just fast hands to Riley was pure class in my opinion.
No mistake from Warrington.

Tony Smiths one of the few managers that tends to give a honest summary of a game. Its probably not the best time to expect a realistic report right after the finish of a game but credit to Smith he always seems to be on the ball with his comments.
Like you say trinfan 71 Bill Arthur must have listened to something completely different.
I honestly don't think programs like back chat , boots n all and super league full time give any credit to the game or sky. The presentation of the games themselves have become stale and a bit of a joke and would not inspire any new viewers to tune in again. Its a shame.

It is a bit sickening but I don't expect anything else from the SKY team, I'll never forget how they all conspired to paint us as the worst club in the Super League and certainties to lose our franchise 3 years ago. They stated it as fact so often in as many broadcasts as they could, always accentuating the negatives and ignoring every positive until it became an accepted fact that we were down. Eddie Hemmings found it hard to hide his disgust when we didn't go down and ignored the likes of Blake Solly who stated that we weren't the next worst club either all because it didn't fit Wiggy's view of things.

They've cried bucket loads of tears over Bradford's demise and even now they're gone they're aching for their return as was seen in Eddies interview with Lowes last week. This was a club that did nothing to arrest their own demise and treated their creditors with disdain, keeping a squad they knew they couldn't afford and blaming everyone but themselves for their predicament.

In contrast you've got Wakefield Trinity, who ripped their squad asunder and had to release 75% of their off field staff in order to stay afloat. We've engaged every creditor and arranged deals to their satisfaction to the point where we're predicting to be a debt free club before next season kicks off.

Yet, do we get any credit for our actions, no but maybe we shouldn't either as our predicament was equally our own doing. However when we reach the mid point of that crucial season and we turn over Wigan, Leeds and Warrington in a few short weeks you might expect some grudging praise at least but no, not for Wakefield because Eddie and Stevo would choke on the words.

They're pathetic!
I'm convinced it all stems from having to sit in the shoebox atop a rickety scaffold, conditions our Eddie thinks are belneath him and he pours scorn on our great club out of sheer resentment.

The sooner he retires and finds another pastime the better

Yet i bet you religiously continue to pay your subscription every month. Which means they couldn't care less.

Got rid of sky sports a few years ago, its utter garbage and gives me no enjoyment what so ever
The only money I give to rugby league is anything involving Wakefield or the international setup

My I suggest any one that doesn't have premiere sport get it for next season, the quality of the rugby is incredible and the coverage and programming is amazing, totally unbiased and a pleasure to watch its comparable to the coverage and programming football over here gets

That is the only language they'll understand, make sure you mention why when you cancel. I notice the sports is going up another £2.50 a month as well so i might well be joining you in doing that.

I'm in the premier sports camp with no sports/movies on SKY and have for a couple of years now.

I thought I would miss Friday night games etc but I don't.

I bet you would all soon be complaining if we went back to the level of RL media coverage 50, 40 or even 30 years ago.
