Message: [QUOTE="Hamm.0, post: 2102844, member: 1852"] In recent years we have started to see this trend of coaches, ex-players, players, etc. taking up commentary duties. Is it a conflict of interest? Ex-players and players I don't have a problem with. Nine has always been and will always be Sydney-centric. However, many great QLD personalities have earned their share of $$ post career of RL commentry. However, with Daley commenting on the Broncos game on Friday night, and more importantly, the Hayne and Hodges incidents, as the NSW assistant coach (or whatever he is), does this represent a conflict of interest? Livermore described Daley's comments as "unfortunate" (or soemthing similar). On the Sunday Footy Show, it was left to Peter Sterling to raise the similarities between Hodges tackle and Hayne's, as it was left to Sterling to raise the similarities between O'Donnells, send off worthy, elbow to face, yet old mate from Parra (???) scored a try and wasn't even looked at. Now, I don't believe that judiciaries listen to these idiots, but they do have a certain (more often than not, undeserved) respected position in the NRL. So when something happens, like Daleys inability to speak during Haynes tackle and then his extended commentry over Hodges tackle minutes later, is this a conflict of interest? It boils down to; does Daleys comments, have some bearing on how the Hodges tackel is viewed by players/ coaches, the judiciary panel and most importantly, NRL fans? [/QUOTE]
