Thought the Beeb did very well with their coverage yesterday.
Good commentary from Dave Woods and John Kear, good presenter in Tony and good work by the touchline team. It's nice to see some enthusiasm back in RL.
The features at the start of the show were decent too.
Thought the images of the players for the starting line-up graphics was very shoddy. Looked like they were blown-up from a mobile phone image. Which is just lazy, as all Clubs have decent high-res piccies of players on their websites.
Apart from that, pretty good, and thankfully no Ray French to reduce us all to Flat-cap wearing, whippet walking Northern scum.

I thought that that was the best BBC coverage of RL I've seen for a long time. A huge amount of enthusiasm from presenters, commentators, and analysts; what sounded like a great atmosphere in a clearly full (or so near as didn't matter) stadium; and a game that was as entertaining to watch as the pre-match TV promotion was absent.

It was OK, but sadly now I'm back to Frenchie this afternoon.

Am I the only one that feels the BBC hardly ever put on what sub's are coming on? I saw two for Hull today, but I haven't noticed who else.
