The Sunday Game

[Jinxy]

Very much so.

See where Carney was saying the goalie touched the ball on the ground, and that's why Dublin got a free in, even though Morgan Flaherty (I think) was actually getting booked for bringing McMenamon down just as he shot.

[Hardy]

He's a complete flute. The ha-ha-ing between himself and Morrissey when Hawkeye was invoked was pure Ireland's Own.

And Canning! Jesus Christ! Does he have to emphasise every time he mentions Brian Meade that it's Meade the player, not Meath the team, as if it was the same word? I know he's from Kathleen Lynch land, where dere's no differ between dem, like. But he does actually pronounce his "th's", so what's he on about?

[AZOffaly]

I think Ger has a new catchword too. Watch for it. It used to be 'a huuuugee one in' (even if it was a 10 yard miskick). Now he seems to have found spirtual enlightenment as every pass or shot is now 'Beautifully in there'.

I had a dream last night where I was on the sideline watching Marty interview Cake after the AI club final. The fecker was too high and mighty to even look at me.

The best commentary team by far is Maloney and McStay.
McStay mightn't be everyones cup of tea ('hot zone' etc.) but at least he knows what he's talking about.

Yeah, used to (really) hate McStay as well, but he's grown on me. Does his homework, Looks at the game and gives a decent analysis.

Maybe I misunderestimated Canning. The innuendo leaps of the page when it is written like dat!

58 seconds in, Anthony  Daly calls Ger Canning "Brian"

But Brian is ultra professional and the interview proceeds without comment

Darragh Maloney is the best GAA commentator on the TV by a long way.

[Hardy]

Except when Dublin are playing.
