| I don't mind them either, but if you refer to each half of the game as a 'stanza', you're open to ridicule!

| Quote Legionited="Legionited"They're alright at times.
I did enjoy a comment the other week, Eddie said something about Stevo camping under the posts at the ground they were visiting next, possibly Quins and Stevo just looked completely dumbfounded.
There was also an amusing exchange when a player was clambering over an opponent and Stevo said he was "turtling him" which got a laugh from me.'"
I don't think Rugby League on Sky would be the same without those 2. And I don't mean that in a negative way.
It's a bit like listening to 2 of your mates talking about the game down the pub. Not everything they say will be correct but it can be entertaining nonetheless.

| For once we agree. Although I wouldn't have Stevo on commentary, but definately have him in the studio and on Boots N All.

Stevo Eddie and Clarkey on commentary really make the game for me Jonny.
Sure, we know that they will come out with rubbish at times, argue with one another and they all have their favourite quotes and sides they clearly prefer.
But they are all 'familiar' to me and personally I think you can't beat a Friday or Saturday night in front of the box with a few cans and a chinese.
And at least it's not Jonathan Davies.

He was a great player wasn't he sanjunien, in both codes.
Not many people know he lost his wife (who was his childhood sweetheart at school) to cancer about 15 years ago and it had a big bearing on his retirement as a player.
He is bloody annoying as a commentator though.

no,didn't know that mate - how very sad for him,to lose someone so young.Can't imagine how he and Paul Cullen and others get through it ?
my missus has been fighting it for six years now and she's still with us thanks to the medical advances made since JD lost his loved one.RL ,in the form of SL on Sky with Dame Eddie & Stevo & the rest plus the games she sees live at TO & Perpignan have helped keep her going.Every live game is like a big dose of chemo for her,no kidding !
you're right tho' JD [uis[/u blinkin' annoying with his south welsh accent...seems a nice guy though.
