Both Cardiff teams seem to have had some unlucky refeering decisions today, with West Bromwich Albion's first goal against Cardiff City in the FA Cup being an obvious offside (going by both Radio Wales/Cymru) and Leinster's first try coming from a forward pass.
They were awarded a rather questionable try to compensate though:D

Championship League Snooker 2012, Watch&Bet and liveworldsnooker.tv
Commentators: Clive Everton, Dave Hendon and Michael McMullan
McMullan is the presenter of Irish radio station Today FM's live Premier League coverage (and in my opinion is an excellent football anchorman). I didn't know he was also a snooker commentator until today but from looking at the Snooker Scene blog apparently he has been covering the Championship League for a few years now.

Neal Foulds is also part of their commentary team at Crondon Park today. Watch&Bet and liveworldsnooker.tv are also showing qualifiers for the World Open, which are being broadcast without commentary.
Sorry to stagger these updates over three posts but Phil Yates is also commentating on the Championship League snooker with Clive, Dave, Neal and Michael. On the Championship League Darts they usually only require three commentators!
Also on Watch&Bet today was live streaming of the first one-day international between South Africa and Sri Lanka. I'm no expert on cricket commentary but from the bits I caught it appeared as if they were using the world feed, I'm not sure who would be on that though.

Almost certainly would have been the Supersport commentary team thelastword posted just above this post, as that's what overseas broadcasters take
BDO World Professional Darts Championship Women's Final: Deta Hedman v Anastasia Dobromyslova
Commentators: David Croft and Vassos Alexander
Rob Walker did the opening link from the Lakeside stage and conducted the first interview with the champion backstage
Good on the BBC for showing the final live at short notice, what with ESPN not bothering to show any of the women's competition at all. I know darts (and women's darts specifically) is very much a minority sport, but surely ESPN could have taken a few hours break from their daytime diet of repeats and magazine shows for one week in January, especially seeing as most of the European football leagues they cover are on their winter breaks.

With Rob Walker due at the Alexandra Palace to begin his MC duties at The Masters snooker and Nat Coombs scheduled to present Radio 5 Live Sports Extra's NFL coverage, it'll be interesting to see who BBC Two use as their reporter on their coverage of tomorrow's final. Perhaps it will be whichever commentator it is that misses out on a seat in the commentary box, or maybe they'll just decide against having one like they did last year.

He's not presenting today either and I don't think he's missed a round of the Heineken Cup so far so I imagine that's probably him done with the rugby for now

She also seems to have gone on a month long holiday which may have bought her departure forward.

Which of course clashed with a GP.
Ah ok, I'm guessing that was the weekend they were all in Brazil then.
