For two decades Leon Pryce was one of rugby league most recognisable players, regarded as one of the finest of his generation.
But today, while enjoying some ‘proper’ rugby, he’s launched an attack on Sky Sports commentator Stuart Barnes.
Watching the kick & clap game.
Is there a more annoying commentator than Stuart Barnes?
Only managed 10 caps for England yet criticises the best players in the world.
IMO to comment on games & criticise you have to be one of the best to have played your trade

He’s not the first as during the game today Wallabies legend Matt Giteau launched the hashtag #UnplugStuartBarnes .
