    Yeah some of the RTE promo's were excellent, not all though it has to be said just a couple, but the on day the match experience was incredibly negatized :P:P

    I'm afraid for those of us north of the border it'll be ITV because of HD. Its a pity TV3 on Saorview is not HD or that RTE didn't get the Irish rights.

    I think the TV3 promo's have been better than the ITV ones over here

    Jenno's vague resemblance to Alan Quinlan has caused me to write him off as a pundit before he's even started.

    He should be good for positizing some of the finer points of the dark arts

    That was excellent but I think that's the one everything TV3 make will be judged against, even though can anyone remember any other RTE promo's?

    Stringer: boring. Jennings: boring. Woody: Ligind. MacNeil: Mr Pomposity. Barnes: "Barnsey". Byrne: he still has Mullet. impossible not to like Shane.
    Blonde bimbo: meh...she will prob wreck my head.

    We had the most difficult pool going, the mighty Nambia and Georgia followed by such minnows as France and Argentina.

    The same way Ryle Nugent was blamed for the loss against Wales in 2011, Huge Cahill commentator for all the pool games.



    If Ireland do really though , its gonna to be a bit crap hearing it from Conor McNamara.

    It's a well-known fact that the punch-up between Mal O'Kelly and Alan Quinlan which soured relations in the camp started because Quinlan said Matt Cooper was a better anchor than Tom McGurk.

    Is that why Quinny never says anything controversial anymore?

    If you actually have eVision you deserve not to have HD :P

    It should be available on Saorview, is there any specific reason why they haven't released it? You would think it would benefit them to have it available to as many people as possible for the WC

    Charge more for advertisements etc as they are in HD

    Transmission fees are probably the main reason.

    With regard to receiving satellite signals, it's possible to buy a Freeview box from Amazon or ebay for about £15.00 or from anywhere in N.I. such as Lidl for example or any electrical outlet, that when connected to your satellite dish will give you all the FTA channels from the UK quite legally. You can then watch ITV/ UTV plus all the variants of BBC.
    You can also buy a second hand Sky box for about £10.00 on Gumtree which will do the same. When I go on holiday to a cottage we use in West Cork every autumn, I take my Sky box with me and get all my Sky channels so I don't miss any of the games.
