It is one thing to be biased for one team, as the Manchester commentators are for Salford.
It is another thing not to call the play and not bother to learn to recognise the London players.

When London is in possession the Manchester radio team spend most of the time analysing the faults of the Salford side, and neglecting to call the play in progress. Part of the reason is that they are too lazy to learn who the London players are. They only know 5 London players: Gower, Witt, Dixon, Bailey and former Salford player Dorn. So when a different London player has the ball they can't identify him.

An appalling unprofessional performance from the commentators.

Told you no-one cares.

The lead commentator has just announced that last week Leeds lost the WCC to Manly.



Clueless!

The dopey commentator Jack Dearden has just repeated that Leeds lost to Manly last week and not one of his fellow commentators, who include Leigh coach Paul Rowley, and Trevor Hunt, has corrected him.

Wow! The commentary team has identified Ben Fisher as a London player.

Down with this sort of thing.

Back to the pits whilst the soft southerners go back to their mansions

Woeful commentary. The game has to move on in many areas

In the post-match commentary Dearden has again repeated that Leeds lost to Manly last week.

Third time proves it. The man has brain damage.

That's pretty awful. Is it that hard as a commentator to take a slight interest in the major events in the sport? Or to learn players... I mean seriously London have a good few rising talents everyone should be keeping an eye on, not just the old (ex)internationals.

Hunt and Dearden have been commemtating and doing phone-ins for years, you'd have thought theyd have known better. Is Malcolm Lord still going? Not listened to GMR for donkeys years.

Ha, its BBC Radio Manchester now ill have you know!
They are usually decent with the phone ins but why must commentators be so aged in this sport?

GMR have been shambolic for decades. Why this seems to be news to some I'll never know.
