i remember they changed the numbers a few years ago so shouldn't make any difference

The numbers do have black edging, but it's too narrow to make a difference at any distance.

Just noticed that to be fair watching the game again. Like you say a bit too narrow though to be noticed. As the game went on and the shirts got dirtier the numbers became more prominant.

who uses the numbers to identify players? eddies a buffoon, he set out on his stupid campaign 2nd week of the season and you can guarantee it wont be the last time he comes out with his "its unfair ont he fans" bile. hopefully hull wont crumble like warrington did and change the numbers, if he was any good at his job he wouldnt need to use the numbers, which 3/4 of the time they cant see anyway because the players are side on to them

least doesnt think berrigan is over hyped

Was Hull getting any praise last night from the two numptys?
Was he saying how much of a talent Briscoe is etc or not?

just think sky turned up to witness how good hudds were seemed forced to comments about hull

yes there were impressed with briscoe but stevo prefers hookers

Not bad, actually. They mainly focussed on Horne and were singing his praises all night. Gave him MOM as well.

The numbers were fine, it was the players who blended into the background hence the Hudds players playing catch in their own 20 thinking there was no-one there.

Stevo and Eddie have become even greater jibbering idiots in recent years. Eddie seems to go on a rant each week about something and I hate the way they have a 'flavour of the week' young player that they praise to high heaven for doing something run-of-the-mill just so they can criticise later on in the season.

The whole Sky coverage sucks nowadays, seems like they try and trump up the sport and its 'superstars' in a bid to convince themselves.
