Answer 4

Yeah its the same with all sports. God knows who hires people at ITV...obviously some inbred

Answer 5

ITV have never had a good commentry team for Rugby. Made no sense of what they was saying as they was thankfully drowned out by the noise of the stadium.

Answer 6

You are all lucky - due to our location we had to watch it with French commentary - fortunately our French wasn't good enough to follow more than a few words 'a pretty kick to touch' was one phrase we mastered.   (We're in Spain, btw, not such devoted fans that we're in France)

Answer 7

ITV are useless compared to the good old BBC

Answer 8

Hal you took the words ou of my mouth as i have just said that to Rugby loving used to play number 8 shirt husband and he said toss ers ! lol

Impressed with Arg at moment better bodies lo well i am woman but i do love the rugby better than football any day

Answer 9

Your right, not good at all. It looks like Argentina could win.  "Its very blue for France" what a comment.

Answer 10

Can't beat Brian Moore on BBC....he's been there done that.

Answer 11

i was amazed when i heard ITV had the rugby, to my knowledge ITV have never had any rugby at all so they aren't going to have any proper commentators.  My advice is put five lives commentary on and just have the pics on TV

Answer 12

I always prefer sport on the BBC.

Shame they don't have the rights to show it.

Answer 13

I listened to the Welsh language commentary on S4C, much better.

Doctor John...what about those soccer nancy-boys that roll over in agony if someone so much as touches them...diddums.
