For at least the second time the BBC have put Lloyd Williams down as a Scarlets player when reporting the Welsh Squad. Is this just really bad journo skills, and I assume not knowing the difference between Lloyd (Blues) and Liam (Scarlets), or is he on the move this summer?

SS,

The know diddly squat half the time and not much else the rest of the time and can't be a***d to do their research properly.

I was listening to radio wales on Monday morning and for the first two sports reports they commented that the O's had won against Glasgow - just poor lazy journo IMO.

Stuart Barnes thinks the ex First Minister of Northern Ireland, David Trimble, plays on the wing for Ulster and Ireland so....

David may actually be better on the wing than Andrew was for Ireland last Sunday.

He'd certainly have been given more space!

The Beeb do this all the bloody time, and it drives me slightly loopy.

I remember a couple of years ago reading a BBC pre-match article for an Edinburgh game, which stated that Greig Laidlaw had come into the side to replace Dan Parks.

a) They played different positions (at least they did at that point...)
b) They played for different clubs
c) Those clubs were in different COUNTRIES
d) Dan Parks was already injured, if I remember right, so he wasn't being replaced by anyone!

I've said it before, but the BBC could do with a few 606ers on their staff.

Imagine the fun they could having with WUMming on a national news site!
