Have to agree with everyone's sentiments on Simmonds - he's the ultimate 'clinger on'. But fair play to him, he's managed to make himself a career from it. I personally can't listen to him for a minute - it's ridiculously cringeworthy, but he's getting absolutely everywhere.

On a different, but similar note (and this will probably offend some and come across as a touch heartless so I'll put on my hard hat), but I'm a bit sick of seeing/hearing from Lizzie Jones, she gets where water can't - I'm sure she's rooting someone at Leeds, she's at every game, function and get together.

I absolutely have 100% sympathy for her, admire her massively for what she's doing with the DJ defibrillator Charity (and maybe it is just Leeds being very supportive of her and that charity), but jeez, every time I'm at headingly she's there hovering around like an entitled celeb.

Used to watch Rugby AM, don't bother anymore now,can't stand Simmons

Out of all my family, Rugby AM appeals mostly to my youngest cousin so Alex’s target audience isn’t really us and it seems like his appearances in the Long Bar are misguided. Alex comes from a nightlife background so probably comes across a bit like Ray Von from Phoenix Nights in this sort of setting.

The team has done a good job of bringing about the Rugby Camps for kids plus this Origin Match is brilliant and they have a lot of ambitions in the pipeline.

I don't mind but when they announced her on Friday as "the First Lady of Rugby League" that was quite cringeworthy.

I think it's good that rugby league as a sport is looking after one of its own. If you're going to pay a singer it may as well be a further players widow

Have to agree about shouty Simmons, equally shouty Wagga and mumbling thicko JJB. Woeful to listen to.

Not sure if they're trying to recreate a a UK version of the now way past it's sell by date NRL footy show, bit it's a right pile of shoyte.
