Terrible commentary....do not think he mentioned some of our players at all, including netherton aka playing arguably the most important position on the pitch!

2 - castleford came down from north west england.

3 - we signed wainwright from batley this season!!! im sure he is in his 3rd season with us!

4 - Richard Evans??? McCalldrick???

duggan even said its along way to travel for all other teams going to wales and them going to england every other weekend!

need anymore reasons?

but you miss the main point. rugby league games were not being covered AT ALL in wales and now they are. So there are some some teething problems so what? write in to the station politely and firmly thanking them for covering the bloody game you're supposed to love but ask them to be more careful in the details and make whatever other helpful comments. They probably gave the gig to some novice so how about making them welcome into the friendly world of rugby league instead of moaning all the bloody time. Its called growing pains and you will have to go through it whether you like it or not.

I think we all agree it was awful commentary, lets just be thankful there was commentary at all though, we got a win lets be happy folks :D

First game I've missed this season so unfortunately had to listen on the radio and couldn't believe this guy, he actually said in their next set of 5 instead of set of 6 and said that at least twice.
There were many more gaffs too, he kept confusing who had the ball, who had the feed at the scrum, I remember him saying the scrum was on the Cas 20 and Celtic have head and feed, me thinking we were up against it only for him then to say the Castleford scrum half puts the ball in, there were so many I've lost count.

I Was at the game and unfortunately missed the commentary :lol:
but in the defence of the commentator the ref was (Billy the Fish ) and he didnt know what he was doing either perhaps he was calling it as it should have been but Mr Alibert was giving it the other way
