RTE and SKY Live Coverage of GAA Championships 2014

Des Cahill said it was available worldwide on twitter but it appears that isn't the case. Shag it anyway!!

Cannot get the Sunday Game sunday night show in England.  And iv paid for Premier Sports, ice hockey on now.  Pisses me off, thought all angles were covered.

Have premier sports too and it's very hit and miss. Why don't they simply show the Sunday Game worldwide live? It can't be a rights issue as they aren't showing live games!

That presumes that the rights sold are only to live games. RTÉ used make the Sunday Game available mid week on the player, so perhaps there is a moratorium on when they can do this.

Rte now own streaming rights oversees. They will be launching a paid service on Wed called GAAGo. It will stream games across desktop and mobile devices. Check www.rte.ie/gaago later this week.

Appparently the service (via RTE player) will be free for the first few weeks - preusmably until the payment system is setup

Just used it there myself for free. Stream worked well.

Jim Whyte paints the game in a very positive light.  Talking the game up and emphasizing the positive, just as we've come to expect from Sky.

Its obvious he hasnt a clue what he is talking about (a bit like the rte lads)
but he did ok there, as a round up summary of the game, that was pretty good

Brian Carney the rugby league/union fella!? What are his GAA credentials?

[GalwayBayBoy]

A pretty uninspiring lineup. Jamsie O'Connor and Nicky English should be decent for the hurling but everything else is very TV3 ish bar the presenters who I am not convinced about anyway.

What are Rachel Wyse GAA credentials? 

What are Michael Lyster's, or Eoin McDevitt's? What were Mark Robson's or Jackie Fullerton's?

Rachel Wyse isn't going to be doing the analysis.
