Sky Sports/BBC - RL Highlights Show : Sat Feb 28, 2009 1:50 pm  

I'm sick of watching all this crap like Boots 'N' All and the Super League Show when we watch Angela Powers talking to vicars etc. They need to get a grip. Get a commentator for every game, and on a Sunday, get a 30-60 min slot and just show the highlights. It's boring watching proper highlights of the games on sky, then showing 3 clips of the games that people haven't seen. Change is needed, either BBC or SKY need to follow the example of Match of the Day. If there is no slot, have it on the red button or BBC3 and they're will be more people interested in watching RL highlights than some crap that's on sky sports.

super league show does a good highlights package i think, but boots n all spend 5 mins showing a couple of tries from each game then spend 50mins filling

Boots 'n' All online or on Sky Active is a good hightlights package without the padding.

I also think part of the problem are these broadcast quality camera thingys.

What they have seem to be at moronball mostly!

I agree. Super League Show isn't that bad I suppose, but Boots 'n' All is terrible. It's like they aren't sure whether they want it to be a highlights show or a magazine show so they have a stab at both and it's rubbish! It needs to be either one or the other, IMO.

I think more people are interested in a highlights show (i.e. MoTD) than a magazine show. I just don't get why we get a 10 minute clip on SSN and BnA and 50 mins of crap rather than the other way around. Put the magazine stuff on SSN.
