Quote ="ROBINSON"Nobody is disputing that. What we're saying is that when you're employed as THE voice of rugby league you have a duty to appear impartial, and you should not let your feelings influence what you are saying.
Eddie Hemmings arguably has this responsibility even more than Stevo, Clarke and the rest of them due to him being the presenter and commentator. He is not paid to give opinions, he's paid to call the match.'"
But if he does support a team, as everyone will know, you will dislike others, and sometimes you are un-aware that you are being biased.
I agree with what your saying that as 'the voice' of Rugby League, he should be un-biased, but personally i don't see the problem. He isn't the only bloke to dislike Wigan. Sure people wont die if Eddie Hemmings doesn't like Wigan.
Just a question: That guy from Gillette Soccer Saturday show, who presents it. He supports Hartlepool, and is biased against other teams, yet he is only supposed to deliver football scores. Nobody disputes this. Should give Eddie a break in my opinion
