WTF is it with RTE commentators getting the teams mixed up, they do it time and again. Marty mixing up  Galway and Roscommon, Canning saying Limerick put over the point to put the score at 10-8, it was Clare and the score was 11-7.

The coverage and commentary is just so dated at this stage.

Even naming players by their nickname, like WTF...'bubbles' etc

The whole package of Gaelic football is dying from the rules of game, the game itself, the spectacle, the negative tactics, the back door, the super 8, the dominance of Dublin to the TV coverage or lack of it this year. In regards the Sunday Game it's like sponsorship/advertising has abandoned our game.

I've no problem with the lack of coverage this year.
Which, in itself, is kind of depressing.
I just don't care anymore.
If you were any use you'd be playing.

+1 . Which is unusual for a RTE football pundit. Ciaran Whelan has decent knowledge. The rest are of cliches and waffle. I think we will see more of Parsons this year in the studio

Geoblocked in the north on sky, probably from the Brazil game and some tit has forgot to switch it back on afterwards.

My thinking too. Muppets.

People get very quick to call it partitionist etc on twitter but it is more likely incompetence. At least we have tg4 tomorrow.

Less said about some of the absolute doses on twitter the better.
