I thought they were alright too, at least they got the players names right and didn't just make them up.

Please, please, please go away and watch moronball if all you can do is moan!

It was brilliant entertainment including the the cock ups and if you don't like it then you are really following the wrong sport.

I have watched today some 1st class entertainment on the beeb and yes there are are things that were "wrong" but overall the game won.

If this offends you then even moreso you are watching the wrong game.

RL is in the ENTERTAINMENT business and boy did it deliver today.

Unfortunately people have the RIGHT to moan when they are forking out £142 for their TV licence to watch the amateurish stuff apparently served up.

As professional journalists you would at least expect them to get the names of players correct.

If you or I did your job incorrectly, we would probably end up getting the sack. Our game is getting dragged down with their poor commentary.

Get the feeling Ray will be phased out gradually so enjoy it while it lasts eh. I used to like Davies but he should stick to Yawnion.

Dave Woods on the other hand is brilliant. Loved it when he described young James Graham as the 'Kindergarten Prop'

I felt like writing to the BBC today, something I'd never even think of doing. The coverage was shocking, thank god there were two decent games to watch.

Fair play to Dave Woods though, he does a cracking job considering the clowns around him.

I liked the bit when Catalan kicked out of the full, well I assume they did that since Bradford got a pen on the half way line but we never saw the kick off.
