RTE could learn a lot from the modern day podcasts, and try to totally revamp the show with something more interactive and with free flowing conversation rather than stale, rehearsed commentary on games. Plus Des has a point, too many games to fit into one show. If you want to do the games justice, there probably needs to be a second midweek show of some sort. Would love to see a Wed or Thurs night preview show of the upcoming weekend games.
They need at least one midweek show, perhaps one to show longer segments of games and one preview magazine type programme. Half the stuff on RTÉ is repeats, this is novel content that they own the rights to, why do they not use it?
Edit: Des on Newstalk with Pat Kenny now. He said that they did not have the rights to show games during the week, only Sunday night. The GAA need to look at this. They should encourage more coverage, for instance when UTV had a programme they couldn't proceed for lack of rights, the GAA should have encouraged them not stopped them.
did he say why or who has the rights
