I think that we can expect bias with regional commentators. Huw Llewellyn
Davies is always biased but knows his rugby and is very funny. Some of the
Welsh club rugby has been so bad this season that a commentator who is a
comedian raises the standard of viewing to "acceptable". The Welsh soccer
commentators are nothing more than soccer hooligans who shout and whinge
their way through games.
