Cos it's Sinfield.
Oh, and there's a difference between clarifying the odd decision with a ref, and hassling him after every bloody decision against that player's team.

Where did I say this? I said this wasn't a discussion about Leeds. And it isn't.
This is about one particular person. The only reason it is about one particular person is because he is the one I happened to be watching at the time. I don't watch the SLS every week, but I did this week and Sinfield was awful. I have much respect for Sinfield as a player. But on the TV he was awful. If one of SL's star players is going to be on TV a lot then he maybe should be trained in this department. Being a rugby player isn't an excuse to be crap on TV.

|  He looked really really bad! Almost hungover, sick of seeing the same guests on the show. At least John Kear has a good opinion on the topic of the day.

Same. I've just watched it now and he was much much better. Seemed interested, contributed well to discussion and was very analytical. I dunno what made the difference. Was it because he was the solo guest this time? Or was it because Leeds won this week?

Or is that you are just a knee jerk reactionist?

Not really. He was woeful last week. It would have been better if he wasn't there.

| Quote Wellsy13="Wellsy13"How boring is Kevin Sinfield?! He looks like he doesn't want to be on the SL Show tonight. Hasn't cracked a smile. Mumbling. Quiet. Unenthusiastic. Pretty short answers. He looks like he could just fall asleep any second. Why have him on?! He doesn't exactly paint a very good picture with his answers and just makes the show dull.'"
He still has more charm and charisma in his little finger than Agar has in his whole body.
Sinfield is one of the most talented players in SL, I don't know why you feel the need to bad mouth him.

I made a comment about his media skills on one particular day. They were shocking. Most people are agreeing. Those that aren't agreeing are defending him as a player (which isn't exactly disagreeing) and it is totally against the point I'm making.
I have not made one negative comment on this thread about his playing skills because I respect him as a player (in fact, I have said that in this thread). Why you feel the need to bring Agar into this I haven't a clue?
Why can't people actually discuss the point being made on this forum?

Yes.
The OP saw one SL player give a not particularly inspiring performance on the SL Show and decided to start a thread about it. Presumably having watched numerous other players and coaches with the charisma of a waxwork of John Major bore the pants off the audience most other weeks but not really caring about those for some reason.
