Ray French is bleeding rubbish. I love his trademark 'Ohhhhh' though, he usually says it when he doesn't know how to describe a try.

That's even better on the radio. Something important happens and he says:

"OOOHHHHHH! ... Well, goodness me! ... Absolutely sensational! ... Would you believe it?"

Would I believe WHAT, you daft old boob? Still love him though.

I can't stand Jonathan Davies though. The games he commentates on are clearly the only games of Rugby League he ever watches.

It was brilliant entertainment including the the cock ups and if you don't like it then you are really following the wrong sport.

I have watched today some 1st class entertainment on the beeb and yes there are are things that were "wrong" but overall the game won.

If this offends you then even moreso you are watching the wrong game.

RL is in the ENTERTAINMENT business and boy did it deliver today.

The games delivered, Clare Balding delivered but French and Saunders were oh so negative.
