This bit especially-

"No one knows Mal Alker better than me and despite the hot air from Stevo in his column I know what I'm capable of and I plan to show him that I've nothing to prove to this guy."

Basically he is saying he plans to prove to Stevo that he has nothing to prove?!

I actually like it when our pundits get the balls to have a pop. Rugby League is one big old boys clubs at every level including the media. They are all too busy blowing smoke up each others rears to say what they actually think. Its a back slapping culture born out of fear of upsetting someone.

Regardless of how correct or incorrect Stevo's view is at least he has had the guts to say it, most of the other stooges are too busy trying to save there mates from criticism rather than giving an objective view.

Just download the Podcast with all the highlights on and ignore Boots'n'all.

In fact, they should just play the Podcast on the tele for an hour instead and put Eddie & Stevo out to grass. Can they not just forget to buy his return ticket from Australia at the end of the season?

I don't actually mind Stevo - at least he's played the game at the highest level, represented his country and also played down under. Yes he says some ridiculous things that people may not agree with but he's probably a lot better than most.

As for Eddie his whole anti Wigan stant is just boring. The problem is who else is there?

chris warren, and a host on radio. phil kinsella is great, knows loads about the game and is an unbiased scouser (they really exist)

Chris Warren would be ideal defo, gotta agree that with no Tony Rea giving his analysis its an absolutely dire and effortless programme.

Mibbe its just me but i detest the sound of Paul cullens attempt at sounding intelligent.

Bin it

a different journo/pundit each week? just keep misery guts andy wilson away

I like Chris Warren, and the worst thing is he is now on Setanta doing some garbage late night UFC chat show, really low quality and he clearly looks half the time as if he has not got a clue how he got there or what is going on.

The e-mail he was about to read out was about Wigan so he got confused.
