The whole SKY package is abysmal. The presentation cries out marginal sport trying to create fake or WWE style hyperbole that looks and sounds so small time. Its like SKY want to prsent rugby league in the same light as British Ice hockey, speedway and netball.

The try music is an embarrassment- what self respecting sport would feel the need for such a nonsense? Notwithstanding the ridiculousness of it all, its about three decades old and belongs in an era of Joe Bloggs Jeans and glowsticks. Garbage.

The commentary team are a nightmare - failed football commentator Hemmings holding court like a pompous monarch who seems to think he is the arbiter of whats good for the sport. His snide criticsims of the challenge cup are a disgrace.

Resident daft lads O Connor and McDermott offer little but talk over the game and appear to be the producers attempt at chuckle brothers style humour.

Angela Powers and Bill wouldnt get a job in any other sport on SKY. A grade C GCSE media studies student could do better.

Phil Clarke likes to find new and arcane ways to sound the fool than the (pseudo) intellectual he is so depserate to be. Chris Eubank and Phil would be a lovely meeting of minds. The sad thing is when Clarke first got a gig with Sky he was a reasonable pundit.

Oh and finally can someone please tell mouth full of wasps Wells that there is a a T in Catalans.

I'm not a huge fan of American football but with the scores of commentators that they employ it does stir up an interest in me and I seem to find myself understanding what they are talking about, even though I don't. I think that the university education that all the players receive now (is it from scholarships?) along with media training it really does help them charm and engage the viewer. In fact, compared to any UK Sky sports commentary they seem to keep on raising the bar.

All of a sudden O'Connor says "all of a sudden".

Eddie has been calling “40-20 attempt” when the ball is kicked on the last tackle inside the 40. Does my nutt in.

“Great defence from Wigan”

A try.

It's even worse when they're bored!
