Will bloody Greenwood?

Question

I had a real gutsful of Will Greenwood's commentating in the semi-final tonight. At every opportunity he went on to talk about England's game last night even though he was supposedly commentating on SA v Argentina.

Anyone else had enough of him?

Answer 1

got right on my nerves.yes, give credit to england for their acheivments.but did we have to put up with it for 80mins throughout a semi final of the RWC,i think not.somebody take the mic off him.

Answer 2

Do you think there ww should get up a petition that no commentator is allowed in the box until the tip of his tongue has been sewn to the end of his nose.

Answer 3

I came on here to see if any one else thought Greenwood was a complete diick. And yes he was, what exactly does a rugby international have to do with Dallas 1963 and President Kennedy getting assassinated.

I thought my ears were deceiving me but i checked on my recording and yes he managed to get a reference in to the grassy Knoll what was that all about.

the guy is a clown and should get his marching orders.

I don't particularly like Stuart Barnes but at least he has got a little bit of impartiality.

Come back Bill McLaren all is forgiven.

Answer 4

Well for most of the game it was clear who was going to win.

Answer 5

the man is funny but let him stick to the England games to make his comments before, during and after an England match, his opinion will be very bias against any other team than england, Pienar is up in the commentary box with Johnson, why dont they have someone like Williams or Mulder or Small, a true Boxs World Cup Winner, give some insight from a South African perspective no matter how arigant they are

Answer 6

Totally agree, his so-called commentary is cringe inducing,

I lost count of the times he talked about England ,This was supposed to be a non biased commentary on a world cup semi featuring Argentina and South Africa ,

If this had been a radio commentary you would have been forgiven for thinking you had tuned in to an England game. The man is incompetent, anyone remember the good old days of Bill McLaren, Now there was a truly great rugby commentator!

Answer 7

********,need i say more?

Answer 8

Even though I'm English, I found the way he constantly referred to the England-France game very annoying.

He is a good touchline reporter who offers insightful opinions, but as a co-commentator, he is over-reaching.

Answer 9

He will probably puke when SA beat England.

Answer 10

I didn't even hear it and i've had enough of him!

Answer 11

His commentating is COMPLETELY subjective and often quite insulting (could he have gone on anymore about Montgomery's grooming? What's that got to do with anything?)

You only have to look at how professional Martin Johnson and Francois Pienaar were to see how it's done. Put a sock in it, Greenwood!

Answer 12

He's english it's an english telecast why not?

Answer 13

Reminds me of Eddie Butler.............and neither can do the commenting business........to biased!

Answer 14

Yes.  He's just raising an umbrella for the thrashing England will receive at the hands of the Springboks next weekend..
