QuoteI think this a first!!

While it may be an unanticipated side effect, the idea that the GAA rules are a subject of discussion that everyone should have a view on is a welcome development for the wee six.

I suspect that Brolly's organ transplant may have given him a profile for non sports types generally.

RTE's studio analysis today is embarrassing when compared to BBC's. McGuinness, McGeeney and (to a much lesser extent McHugh) are so much more informed and insightful when compared to the punch + judy show on RTE. Fair play to BBC NI - never thought I'd ever type that out!

Same can't be said about the direction - they've missed every single kick out so far watching replays

I just want to say and its not often I need to say it. yesterday's BBC coverage of Tyrone v mayo was brilliant. jimmy, geezer and wee man in the studio were great. jeez..! Jim mcguinness can do stats. hes a mine if intricate detail but hes not boring. geezer just oozes charisma, he commands attention when he speaks with his insightful quotes from various sportstars and less geeky analyses.. well when he flexes those guns who's gonna argue. wee man McHugh wasn't as pushy yesterday and without burns patronising him he seemed more comfortable. meanwhile oisin and sidey have a nice rapport going. oisin is sharp but lets sidebotton lead... sidey leads but is in awe of his allstar partner. very good coverage the beeb blew rte out of the water on this occasion. also the lack of sickening ads on the BBC makes it all the better

WELL DONE BBC 8)

Aye, you complain about RTE, I bet there was no bias on B.B.C.  ;)

Maybe you are right, I have never watched GAA on BBC.

I thought Jordan did very well last night. I usually cringe when a Tyronie is brought in as we just don't have the voice for TV....usually 100mph. Jordan was incisive and clear and could speak at length using a bit of sense.
I wanna have my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames.

I just looked at the BBCNI Sports website during the All Ireland Hurling Final and there is not a mention of it, anywhere http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/northern-ireland/ Are we surprised?

Not in the slightest. I contacted BBCNI last week to see if they would be covering any of the AI finals. Still waiting on a reply...
