    Daragh needs to be given some time to grow into the role. He hasn't been doing it all that long. He deserves to be given some time, to find his own way of making the job his own. Even Billo needed some time to find his feet all those years ago and he didn't have to deal with constantly being compared to someone else all the time. Daragh will be fine in time, he's an excellent broadcaster imo.

    I'd have to disagree. I think his style would be better suited to news or current affairs, but the studio segments nowadays feel like a board meeting.

    Maybe it's just me though :)

    Well if you weren't looking forward to the tournament before then you should be now. I personally can't wait for the bloody match to start at this point.

    Well it shows while terrorists wanted to destroy life as we are use to in Europe, life will go on and the music (whether you like it or not) will go on.
    It is a good day for France so far.

    There have been opening ceremonies like this for a long time.

    On to the match, I'm expecting a comfortable France victory. 3-0 with Romania holding tough until the second half.

    London Olympics was genius tbh.

    But yeah, these opening ceremonies at the world cup are usually nonsense and quite similar.

    True but the music element was always bearable. Then they inflicted Alicia keys and Daithi O Guetta on us.

    Or maybe it's just me being an old grump!

    Agree re the match though, expect France to hockey them.

    Cool anthem. If only Irish fans could sing ours like that. Probably need to learn the words first!
