That's because you aren't very bright. I presume Paul Cooke wrote his own autobiography......... Just because someone can put words in print it doesn't mean he or she can commentate. And Ray was a terrible commentator.

Just to educate you, an autobiography is written by the subject of the book. One written by someone else is simply a biography. Ray French (great player that he was) is not, and never will be,a good commentator. :BEAT:

Are you questioning the match calling of William Arthur, or just the commentary of Barrie McDermott, Terence O'Connor and Phillip Clarke?

William Arthur is fine. It is just the other aforenamed who drag the broadcast down.


I’m not questioning anything Barry , Catalans bore me .

I never said Paul could commentate . Paul sat down with Adrian and talked about his life , rugby career his Mum etc , it was Adrian who wrote the book.

In my opinion Ray was a great commentator , a legend.

Surely it can only be a player from Catalans. Probably the best RL side I have ever witnessed in this season's comp.

Ray French knows the height, weight and former amateur club of every single player in SL. This is what sets him apart from the amateurs at sky sports

That may be true and good on him if so. However, he does seem to have a problem with what's happening on the pitch!!

How could you know that? Are you a friend or acquaintance of the two gentlemen?

It is most unusual for a man to be named Eddie at birth. Edward is far more likely.


His real name is actually Edison. His dad really liked lightbulbs.

They need Johnny Vegas and The Legend Garry Schofield on there. That'd wake the viewers up.
