    Who was that meant to be before Mary O Rourke?

    That was gas, love the Des Cahill and Trevor Welch impressions, they are right on the money.

    Can't wait to watch the 3rd place playoff with the Apres Match crew.

    Gonna be some amount of complaints from easily offended politically correct Gob****es!

    That was brilliant.

    The Mary O'Rourke with the lisp was brilliant.

    I agree, best one for ages. Who was the black haired guy supposed to be- the weather guy on RTE2?

    That Mary O'Rourke was uncanny.

    It really was. I knew who she was, before she even opened her mouth. :P

    Nice to see Frank there, he hasn't been on in a while. Frank was one of the original characters when Barry Murphy presented "The End", which predates Apres Match

    I didn't appreciate the character till I saw the real Frank in this clip
    Around the 3:15 mark

    It's Frank's Birthday today. Was a nice touch to bring him back on.

    Loved the ending with Kerr and Alkin revealed to be in Donnybrook. It was kind of like an inside joke in RTE the whole tournament, with them probably fooling a lot of viewers that they were actually in Brazil.

    I thought it was a great gag, letting the cat out of the bag at the end of the tournament and the two taking the piss out of themselves.

    Both were doing LOI commentary throughout the tournament.

    Ah right, I'd say they made a lot of casual viewers assume they were in Brazil still though.

    I missed the bit at the end with Alkin and Kerr. Anyone got a clip of it?

    I thought the Kenny Cunningham bit was amazing. The staring into the ground, the way he sat in the chair, the mouth movement. Just the phrases he was saying while analysing the game you could imagine Kenny saying it.

    Risteard Cooper is an extremely talented man. He does the majority of the characters and everyone he does, he gets them spot on. Although Gary Cooke's Eamo is by far my favourite character :D
