Woods is a moron. He was a bit better today but his commentary and general input on the Super League Show is disgraceful. I've been a big advocate of French over Woods in the past, although Ray was equally shocking today. Both need replacing.

If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.

He seems much better when genuinely commentating live, rather than the "pretend live" commentating he does on the SLS highlights.

Dave Woods is superb. He knows the players, can pronounce their names, and gets a high level of emotion into his commentary, when necessary, that Ray the Frog cannot do unless St Helens are playing.

You are just ticked off by the sound of Dave's upper class acccent. Somebody has to go to Oxbridge, even if it could never have been you.

To be fair the french tv were doing the camera work/directing so it wasnt really bbc's fault

Let’s get Offiah in there! :D

I do agree though, we must be able to do better than our current line up. Its embarrassing given its our only time on the national stage i.e. bbc, I’d prefer the Sky team……

Takes one to know one, sadly for you Woods actually does sound quite knowledgeble on occasion which you don't.

I was kind of hoping they would lose the commentary, as I feel that no commentary is better than those two.

I was commentating myself more than these guys, much to the annoyance of the wife! :)
