Whelan is GAA punditry's equivalent of Rio Ferdinand. A cheerleader for the Dubs, who offers no insight and hasn't the interest or acumen to do research on any other team.

I think RTE need Joe back. The analysis each week is stale, sterile and dull. I would also suggest that it appears to be very scripted.
I agree that Joe has become a parody of himself but he most certainly gives a reason to tune in a HT, knows the game and is entertaining. At the moment I go put the kettle on and wait for the 2nd half to start.

Cora Staunton and Ciaran Whelan deliver zero additional insight and are a bore fest. PC gone mad.

Dead on Joe. We'll tell the Director General.

A complete knob-end who made his name by slating players' and managers' character and values while sleazing around strip clubs himself.

100% agree.
I think Joanne Cantwell is awful too. She may be knowledgable, but god she'd bore you to tears.
Cooper and O'Se I think are good when they are on.
But there's no comparison to Brolly/Spillane/O'Rourke. You'd tune in just to hear them.

Marty Clarke is the best of the bbc bunch. I don't like McConnville/McHugh/Harte. Though in saying that, I'd listen to Harte more to get an idea of how he thinks about the game in general terms rather than in game analysis.

The problem is, you can have analysis, or you can have entertainment. It's hard to get both.

You are on the money, absolutely correct

Guys there is a Joe Brolly on Twitter and I don't know if it's the "real Joe Brolly" or an imposter but whoever it is they're stalking the DUP and ripping the middle outta them every tweet they post. Some of the replies are classic Joe and you'd def say that's the wee Dungiven hoor alright but then it's constant all day every day which makes me think it's an imposter as how would he have such time on his hands...Any of you notice this or follow Joe on twitter?.
