Instead at times it felt like we were watching from another town, and the director shouldn't have gone to that camera as often, especially on the 5th tackle which meant we had no idea what was actually going on.
Was this the old style spidercam,(hanging from cables above the field) or was it a coptercam,as is currently being use at some NRL games ?
The coptercam is great !!
I have visions of that thing dropping out of the sky and landing on the ref!
If the RFL employed it they would probably do it on the cheap and have some numpty operating it who would crash it into one of the uprights or fly it off out of range - last seen heading over the pennines!
