It would be no harm , maybe brush up on your football punditry while your at it :joy:

#1724

Ah theyā€™re ganging up ā€¦ not really. Probably the same person ā€¦ :smirk:

#1725

Should we ask you questions to see what you spit out?

#1726

Donā€™t mind him , heā€™s sozzled off his head on sangria :joy:

#1727

Whats your club team in Dublin GAA?

#1728

Whoa , I feel so honoured now to be part of the gang ! Iā€™ve no club unfortunately @Ohm but Donaghmore Ashbourne is just down the road from me .

#1729

Oh there from Meath right on the border? Right

#1730

Yup , Co. Meath .

#1731

So are you from Dublin?

#1732

I am originally .

#1733

But now you live right on the border. THat makes sense.

#1734

What is Dub09ā€™s club team?

#1735

That would be Na Fianna , Iā€™m sure heā€™d be fine answering any queries you might have :grinning:

#1736

He would just end up giving me sarcastic answers but there are match reports for Na Fiannaā€™s first 2 games and highlights as well so thankfully I donā€™t have to worry about that.

Ger Canning was commentating on a match last week where one team was 2-0 down coming to the end of the 90. That team is on the attack ā€œgoing for the equalizerā€ says Ger.

then george last night thinking there were three mins of added time.

#1738

Seems like hurling is his best sports he commentates on.

#1739

I missed the second half. I thought the first half was enjoyable. I really hope Hazard leaves Chelsea though Iā€™d love to see him still playing in the Premier League.

RTEā€™s sporting coverage (ruggerballs aside - Kyle makes sure that IT is top notch!!) is nothing short of shocking, in general. Laziness and complacency has made it so.

Some amount of stalking going on here, also.

#1740

Please Jebus let Croatia win tonight. I donā€™t care if itā€™s a flukey 1-0 win with the ball going in off Modricā€™s arse just as long as it means I can enjoy the final on Sunday

#1741

Still head and shoulders above TV3ā€™s sports coverage tbf (Matt Cooper :face_vomiting:) Only ones that do sports decently are TG4

#1742

Iā€™ve never heard George commentate on a hurling match. I think heā€™s made a few gaffs during his career but in general heā€™s been decent. Canning is a complete clusterfcuk as a commentator. Generally clueless on whatever sport he covers and just trots out banal shite like ā€œheā€™s a player who loves to solo, run with the ball, score, blah blah blah. He opens his gob and words tumble out. Time for a nice cup of tea.
