| Now is the time to vote your anger and disgust with incompetence and stupidity in rugby league broadcasting.
Who is the worst commentator on Sky: Phillip Clark, Terence O'Connor, Barrie McDermott, Stuart Cummings, or Angela Powers?

You need a No 6 - All of the above. That's my answer.

| Got to say that whilst Terry and Barrie aren’t the best, tonight they were ok because their were only three of them including Bill Arthur and they actually just talked and concentrated on the game. No 5/6 person teams fighting to get a word in with Eddie trying to start ‘banter’ between them.

This. Also, not having Eddie whining about every refereeing decision kept Cummings involvement to a minimum.
Angela Powers is embarrassing, I almost feel sorry for her.

| Only two of those are actually commentators, are you trying to deflect attention away from Dire Dragons?

William Arthur is one of the better game callers in British rugby league. He is not as good as the sublime David Woods at the prestigious BBC, but I actually rate William as good a caller if not better than Edward Hemmings.

| Surely they can find a young(ish), enthusiastic & professional presenter from somewhere. It doesn’t necessarily have to be an ex-player either nor someone who is a RL know it all. A move away from creating contention where there is none & more analysis of the skill on show is a must. This current bunch do absolutely zero in engaging new & old fans.

Was that post more about expanding peoples names and using cheesy Aussie terms rather than meaning anything meaningful?

| My heart missed a beat on Thursday when I noticed they had lispy JJB on. I hope he isn't being groomed to be a future presenter on sky. He would be awful in an already awful team.

It’s Terry not Terence I’m led to believe - Terry is commonly and correctly used as a stand alone name. Maybe it confuses you (what doesnt) that Barrie sometimes calls him Terence as a joke.
Just because he was Christened Terence it doesn’t make it his name. He goes by the name Terry, it’s his right to choose.

| Not a single one of those options is a commentator.
The two commentators on the Sky team are Eddie Hemings and Bill Arthur.

| Barrie and Terry for me. It's annoying to hear them shout "SHOT" whenever a defender puts in a good tackle.

You have a right to your opinion. I don't challenge that. But I have a right to mine. If Terence O'Connor were to be knighted, for example (say for services to rugby union), he would be knighted as Sir Terence, not Sir Terry. Sir Terry would be just silly. I believe in giving him the minimum respect he deserves.

Edward Hemmings and William Arthur are, like Raymond Warren in Australia, game [icallers[/i, not commentators.

Why would be get any accolade for services to rugby union?

| Ok, so the vote option doesn't seem to be working 'again' & in the absence of Eddie 'Just for men' Hemmings I go for Cummings, how this weapon can get repeat years on Sky despite only ever blindly defending the indefensible decisions of referee's is just bizarre !
Special mention to Angela Powers for last night's naming of Leeds Head Coach as Trent bloody Barrett !

Wrong as ever. There are very few occasions that you are required by law to use your legal name, a name you can in fact change any time you wish.
A knighthood in not one, the queen knights Elton John as sir Elton which is his stage name and one he chooses to use daily. I can find no evidence that he’s changed his name legally. I know for certain that Sir Michael Cain is still legally called Michael Mickle something because he says so in his autobiography.
So HRH would have no issue knighting Sir Terry.
