This week we talk to former Leeds Rhinos legend, Barrie McDermott about his passion for the Hull derby, how it might compare to the Leeds Bradford battles in the early Super League era and his on-the-field feud with former Bull, Stuart Fielden.



Barry also offers an insight into how Craig 'Knuckles' Greenhill forced him off the field of play, cursing and pouring with blood during a clash with Hull FC and how that 'friendship' came back to the fore years later when Knuckles - or Buckles as Baz called him - reached out on Instagram to offer his support to Barry as his good friend and former teammate, Rob Burrows lives with Motor Neurons Disease.


And in confidence, Barry spills the beans on some of his Sky Sports commentary colleagues and the secret behind commentating when English sides play Catalan away in France.
