IMO clarke has been ok since he joined the sky team but this year i think he's become a top class idiot!
He trys to be clever in the things he says and all the crap stats he spouts.
On the other hand i think barrie mac is very very good on sky.
I agree with most of that. Used to think Clarke was ok, but over the last few years hes quickly gone down hill. Obviously he's always been biased but it was never blatantly obvious like it is now, you could tell but it was never anywhere near as bad as it is now. When Wigan play, he talks about them and doesn't even mention the opposition most of the time. And as you say, the stats he comes out are complete rubbish half the time. Every time a team does something good 'This team are the best team at having dummy runners' (example).
McDermott can be funny and doesn't sound uncomfortable, shame he brings that idiot (O'Connor) with him. He's awful.
