Did anyone else think that Jon Wells thought the the only player on the pitch was Walsh and gave no credit whatsoever to Salford even though going into the game we were second in the league

Yeah, but I don't really expect anything less from Sky and their 'experts'.

Are these the same 'experts' who have a top 5 hits from this weeks scintillating action (scintillating is what Sky describes SL as, I call it a pale imitation of the NRL).
Number 5, is it Lama Tasi on HH?
No.
Number 4, is it Lama Tasi on HH?
No.
Number 3, is it Lama Tasi on HH?
No.
Number 2, is it Lama Tasi on HH?
No.
Number 1, is it Lama Tasi on HH?
No.
Total bell ringer that Sky ignore, no skin of my nose but when you see the obviously biased coverage, allocation of games you kind of get the impression even if we ended top of the league, won the GF and CC that Sky would focus on any old negative or how unlucky the opposition were by being so depleted.

Don't listen to Wally Lewis calling (they for some reason don't call it commentating) a Brisbane game and you'll see the very definition of being biased, the thing is though they all commentate on the current action rather than something mildly contentious that happened 10 minutes previously.
To me the best 2 commentators are Ray Warren and Andrew Voss, Vossy admitted lately he would love a stint working over here, why on earth Sky don't move heaven and earth to bring him over I don't know, possibly because it would then show that the rest of its 'experts' are nothing short of inept. Rabs (Warren) learnt his trade practising by rolling marbles down a slope and commentating like it was a horse race.

The Aussie commentators focus on the game and never on contentious issues just like commentators should. Anyone who heard Andrew Voss commentate for Premier during the world cup realised how awful Sky's stuff really is. |

Not the biggest Brian Noble fan but his commentary with Vossy was some of the best I've ever heard. |

I'm not good with this "quoting" malarkey, so this is about Carnster's post, in which he said, "Anyone who heard Andrew Voss commentate for Premier during the world cup realised how awful Sky's stuff really is."
My point is that, 20 years ago, Sky's commentary was pretty good for its time. It just hasn't moved on. Which fits the mindset of most broadcasters who probably think Eddie Waring is the right man for Rugby League, we need to sign him up - does anyone have his number?
