Pele certainly won't get a McGuire-length ban anyway.
It'll be interesting to see what they do with him. The tackle was fine, no problems there. The swinging arm on the floor is apparently a 4-6 game ban under the new guidelines. The punch to the back of the head of Lewis in the resulting handbags is 8+. I'm not sure what his record in the NRL was like, but he seems to have a reputation as a toughguy, so I can't imagine it was perfect. They could let him off by saying they both missed, it's hard to tell really on the Sky footage. But if they use it to make a statement, as they often do early in the season, he could be looking at being banned until the last week in May.

Wilkin is claiming Hull Fc should have had 3 red cards, (maybe), yet when it's Saints he defends it, and says he loves the aggression. He should be nowhere near our screens. He's never really interested in what others have to say, and always trying to talk over them. Sky have made a mistake keeping this clown.

He will probably be a commentator on BBC`s coverage of Super League too.

Wilkin could be explaining a recipe to his Mrs and by the time he's got to the point she'd have made tea, washed up, had a shower and been in bed for 3 hours

There was a time delay on the commentary by about 20 to 30 seconds (Some might say that is a big plus), meaning that I had already watched the game action live before I heard the commentators describe it.
Is there always a sound delay on SKY-GO, or was it just last nights coverage that was faulty?
I’ve never had a voice/picture phasing issue on my iOS phone or iPad. Sky Go streams has delay from the tv signal though. At least a minute behind the tv, which in turn is also at least another minute behind the radio!

Let's see what happens.
