Wilkin and Buchanan join sky sports team

[The booze hound]

But they aren't ex Wigan players

I’m sorry meds but I don’t understand your comment?

The sky team have all played for Wigan except for Wells

And Jenna Brooks.

i think for me if they can focus on the positives of the game rather than the negatives it will be a lot better.

A lot of the time its, what went wrong for one team instead of what the other team did well, whether that be good defence or good attack that should be the focus, instead they seem to dwell on errors and what not.

My opinion obviously, it could be the off season making me forget what its actually like

Just seen on twitter the C4 presentation team for Leeds v Wire is Adam Hills with Sinfield and Pryce

I posted recently that i really like the idea of Adam Hills being involved. I think this could be a really good appointment. He loves RL, and a great advocate for disability RL too. i think he will get the right balance of serious and humour in his presentation

I like Wilkin as a commentator, grub of a player, but can communicate and explain whats going on, also according to SWMBO "easy on the eye". Kevin Brown is also good at this role and has done a good job when summarising in the past.

regarding the commentary, football gets by with a commentator and a pundit, we have Barry and Terry doing mother in law jokes alongside the main commentary, as much as Eddie and Stevo became a bit of a cliché towards the end, they knew their roles and if they didn't spend half the match looking for controversy, were ok.

As someone else said sometimes less is more with commentary, and sometimes what is happening on thee pitch is enough, but new viewers especially on free to air TV where certain rules may need explaining (sometimes to the referee).

overall if this is the end and "baz and tez" (grrrrrrrr) are no more then its a good thing, not every commentary is a sportsman's dinner. and regarding JJB, he's ok, but he does sound like he's got a mouthful of marbles

regarding Adam Hills, his passion is enthusiastic, and he's brilliant for the game. but don't over use it, what we don't want is him becoming the face of the game, if you remember back every Wembley final you'd see the BBC had to find Parky in the crowd, more recently when Wigan played they would always try and find Bradley Wiggins, celeb fans are great as occasional guest, is more important that they push the game on other platforms and shows that they do, which Adam is brilliant at.

I was disappointed by the news I was hoping the C4 would think outside the box with its coverage I love Hills passion for the sport but as a presenter he makes my teeth itch

Who is this Adam Hills? Thank you

Id love to see them get Roy Keane in for a few games, i dont see why that not achievable hes a big fan of rugby league and contracted with Sky seems missing a trick because he's also a great one liner dropper, he trends on twitter nearly every time hes on a match in the footy
