The aussie commentary sometimes isn't that great - danny buderus "there is some physical contact out there"

What i hate about the commentary on sky is the chatting amongst themselves about rubbish and not the present game. Just get on with watching the game and comment on what you see.

I was watching the Wests v Storm game on Saturday morning and the commentator sounded awful. Very monotone.

Why they continue to have Cummings I have no idea. He offers nothing at all. We really do not need to know his opinion on referee decisions.

Yes but was he commentating on the game though? That would be a step in the right direction.

I don't see why they need to treat us like babies spoon feeding the rules. The vast majority who watch the game know the rules.

I don't see this in other sports.

John Kear also does it a lot on the BBC coverage. Its like they think the game is being watched by newcomers and one has to explain the basics of Rugby League.

I don't know. His tone was making me fall asleep.

I feel like Kear is usually explaining the rules to the rest of the BBC commentary team who seem to know very little about RL.
