BBC amateurish coverage : Sun Apr 11, 2021 8:50 am  
Counted 12 people to cover 2 games of rugby league and they could not even do a decent job of the quarter final draw. I have seen better presented meat raffles in my local club. Smart ar$e Wilkin at the centre of it as per usual .

Should have invited Keith Senior along. I'm sure it would've helped Wilkin focus on making a more balanced assessment of the teams' performances :lol:

Who cares about the coverage? I don't watch the preamble and Switch off at half time. Been just watching the rugby since 90's.

Out of interest what do people expect from the draw etc? Thought the purpose was just to decide who meets who in next round, and that's were the excitement vibe from......am honestly bit baffled about people's expectations.....

I expect it to be done a bit more professionally , no wonder our game is ridiculed all the time.

Re: BBC amateurish coverage : Sun Apr 11, 2021 11:44 am  
I thought the studio discussion was good and the package was much better than in previous years. Little irked about the channel changing to get post match analysis, and the hiding of bits on the red button.

Didn't see the draw but frankly that's of less importance than the match & pre-/post- match analysis.

More RL on the BBC/terrestrial channels please!!!

I imagine it will have been a shock to the system for a few southerners tuning in to hear some fairly thick northern accents.That alone is worth it!

Not sure why Wilko is getting a lot of stick on here. He was passionate, speaks well, made some good points about the future of the game and the international scene (alongside John Kear).

Very glad people are verbalising the need for a specific international weekend too!

I don’t actually mind Wilkin as a pundit but it’s clear as day hes not got over Leeds beating Saints in so many finals

BBCs coverage and the presenters are far better on the BBC, to be honest.

I haven't watch a cup draw in years, so I couldn't care less about it.
