Rewatching today's RTE coverage. Ger Canning makes an awful lot of mistakes in a game, especially with names. Said Gormleys block was 2002. Talked about Ben McDowell coming on for McCann.  ???

Ger is getting on - he's 70. So you can't be expecting him to get everybody's name right anymore or intricate historical details.

I had the Irish language commentary on instead on RTE News channel (and foregone the HD version as well), because I just can't stand listening to his commentary. I'd listen to Joe Pasquale commentating before Canning. Truly awful.

Ben did come on for McCann lol but it only was for a few mins until McCann was checked out by the doc. He was brought on again after that.

He did. But his surname is McDonnell, not McDowell. ;D

Both RTE and Sky had poor match commentary, but Sky won hands down with the punditry.

Is the match not available to re-watch on the RTE player? I'm sure Tyrone's games in Ulster were

Anyone in north losing channels all of a sudden? Now I can get bbc1 bbc2 nor utv on my Samsung smart tv

Anyone experience being kicked off RTE on sky during extra time? Had heard this happened because of geoblocking paralympics coverage which had been due to be on at that time.
I know the times for geoblocking are arranged in advance but surely the possibility of extra time should be taken into account and someone at a computer somewhere should be able to override it until the broadcast is over.

Happened a load of people myself included.

Are RTE covering any club games this Autumn or was last year a one-off in that regard for them?
