Always said it hemmings is grade A, Class 1 STROKER,he will have any dig he can have against Wigan and if we are getting beat he nearly creams himself. The man is a rrrrrrsssss pure and simple.

Hemmings is a joke, remind me who he played for? Exactly, the bloke knows nowt about the game. Wigan are a breath of fresh air at the top of the league and long may it continue.

Well said he can have a dig at players but he has never played a game in his life, I don`t know how the fool has the front to slag anyone off.

just watched the replay my self what a IDIOT this is what i think

Quite appropriate that the 'We have acheived what you can only dream of' flag is above his head

Its so obvious its funny! How many times did he remark about the exact amount of players Leeds where missing, they still had a team with several current or ex-international players in.

The comment about Piggy was fairly out of order, he expected a laugh from his fellow commentators but they shunned him with the silence.

Did anyone pick up on: Bradford 16 Quins 12 "AND HARLEQUINS HAVE TAKEN THE LEAD AT BRADFORD"

Idiot

yeh i picked that up what a goon!

He also said " the final score flattered Wigan " enough said.
And kept going on about Leeds 9 injuries

I was sick of hearing the amount of players Leeds had missing, I was surprised he didn't mention it was hollow victory for Wigan

He even mentioned leeds injuries when giving the results tonight.

The guy is an absolute , i said to my dad lets watch it back and see how much Hemmings bashes Wigan. It was unbelievable!

The amount of times he mentioned Leeds injuries was pathetic. Phil Clarke should of snotted him

I appreciate that you guys have a genuine grievance with Hemmings, but just bear in mind that Phil 'Mr Wigan' Clarke comes across as a bit of a n0bhead to most people who don't follow Wigan as well.....I think each of the 3 stooges needs to bear in mind that they are supposed to be impartial and not to allow their tinted glasses take over when a match is on.

I didnt hear Phil Clarke throwing one off last night which he had every right to after the he listened to from Hemmings. Phil Clarke maybe mr Wigan but he doesnt broadcast it like that Hemmings.

Hemmings has no background in the game and has just blagged his way through as a commentator. It hasn't helped him coming from Merseyside.

Having said that, his bias against Wigan last night was appalling.
We expect Stevo not to like Wigan as he is a yorkshireman, but he by contrast has a pedigree in RL.We know Stevo loves the game.

These two are only slightly better than those other two clowns Terry O'Connor and Barry McDermott.

This is one of the problems with our game and why Australia continually do better.

In Australia they employ University graduates in all aspects of the game.

In our game we , or some us, applaud and approve of dross.

True that.If anything you would have thought he had been born and bred in st helens over the last few years

I'm with you that Clarke is certainly more knowledgeable than Hemmings, but you are allowing your Wigan bias to get in the way of things, if you don't hear the moments that Clarke allows himself to get all gooey over his side.

Clarke gets gooey over any side. He tried to claim that Riley's try against us was one of the best you'll ever see. Most people ignore him but Wire fans seem to hang on every word he says.

Wish sometimes Sky could do what they do with the footy...You can switch the comms off and just have the crowd on.....One way of shutting them up.

We can afford to loose at saints and still be top due to our points differance but with it being proberley our last game would be a big downer if we were to get beat there

His bias and hatred of Wigan has always bubbled under, but with our resurgance this year, it is coming back to the fore.

The man is an idiot.

Being biased I can sort of understand and I have no problem with it but Eddie pretends he is impartial and is completely unprofessional.

How about when Wigan scored their first try which was against the run of play and how magnificent Leeds had been in the opening 30 minutes because they were 0-0. This is a side with Burrow and Maguire running the show, not players out of position like at Harlequins and to be honest most of their breaks didn't get them too close to our line and our own ill discipline cost us possession and position in most cases.

It wasn't a great performance from Wigan and Leeds had suffered beforehand but Eddie Hemmings is a total waste of space not just because he is biased but because he is $hit. We will always be a small, northern, flat cap wearing sort of game with him and Stevo as the front.

spot on (Y)

i wouldnt mind jack deardon and trever hunt instead? least there not biast and no more about rugby than they do

Its wierd, when Wigan dominated the game, I used to curse Hemmings for being too pro Wigan, although I guess its hard not to wax lyrical about a team that were as far ahead of the pack as they were then.

Phil Clarke's never bothered me in that sense, in fact there've been time since he started that he's been very pro saints, even in comments in the derby.

What riles me is that Hemmings seems to have picked up little practical knowledge about the game in all the years of commentating on it and, instead of being pulled up on it, has stevo sitting next to him who not only struggles with basic rules of the game, but also fails to actually see what's in front of his eyes. Hemmings's love for the dramatic and cliche means he spouts torrents of bilge at any oppotunity and only tend to get corrected when Clarke pipes up (which is limited being 3rd mic).

I think a lot of people jump to the conclusion the Phil Clarke will automatically be pro-wigan before he's even opened his mouth, even if he's being impartial, so the guy can't win. Eddie Hemmings on the other hand, is just a pillock, plain and simple
