Says Justin Marshall...

well known for being completely unable to keep his fucking mouth shut and usually being wrong.

Nothing to see here. Like many a former international, Marshall's a hopeless media pundit. Hence, Sky in NZ didn't want him anywhere near their RWC commentating team, and he had to sell his wares, such as they are, to SuperSport in SA. He's desperate for attention, and is always happy to stir up a bit of 'controversy' to that end. Has a reputation for being an aggressive gobshite when on the turps, and has antagonised a number of current and former players with his extra-curricular antics.

The obvious problem with his attendance would be the screen concentration on showing his facial reactions as events unfold one way or the other.

Razor's far too smart to ever allow that to happen, even without a RNZ directive. If Marshall had a clue, he'd know that. Or he knew that, but still wanted to concoct some drama to grab a headline or two. Either way, he's a dickhead.

I did a number of years back thank Marhsall was on his way to being an interesting in game analyst. Then he lit upon the phrase 'razzle dazzle' and it was downhill from there, I'm not sure it's at the point of bring back Ian Jones, but I no longer have hopes for Marshall, high or otherwise

A career at ITV beckons then.

Is Ugo Monye the "Manu Tuilagi - Destroyer of Worlds!" bloke?

Marshall's more of a "Boo Yaa!" kinda guy.
