TV Coverage

A question for someone with a GAAGO sub.

If there are 2 games on, can you simocast them, like on a split screen or anything? Would be useful for the end of group games that throw in at the same time. Is it that sophisticated?

I think the best you can do is watch one live match on your mobile app and at the same time watch the other live match on another device, e.g., a laptop.

Wouldnt think so, can only use one device at a time

Anyone know what games Fitzmaurice is covering this weekend………so I can avoid?

€25 is a bit steep for the football games, mad pricing imo. A sunny bank holiday Sunday with the game live on TV, could see Mayo's first sub 10k attendance for some time.

By the look of the size of the crowd in parnell park, Meath & Down would of being better of playin in Innskeen

Bad form from Canavan there in the warm up.

Belly aching about Morgan getting the black card and inferring, without having the balls to come out and say it, that the referee didn't card Morgan for abuse and that he changed his story after the event.

Referees get plenty of abuse, deserve some of it, but pundits shouldn't be allowed free reign to call their character into question like that when the refs have no real right to reply at the time.

A debate very poorly chaired by Joanne.

No live football at all on Terrestrial TV this weekend.

Pretty poor form in the middle of the championship, with knock out games FINALLY appearing, albeit at Tailteann Cup level.

One would imagine there could have been one game on this evening, and build the highlights of the other 3 games into the show as a way to launch the competition properly and maybe engrain it into people's consciousness, maybe engage some casual fans.

Was a good opportunity to promote the competition, it would worry me about both GAA and RTEs interest in the competition in the future.

Coverage at Dr Cullen Pk is real amateur stuff.

Apart from having to listen to fvckkn Eamonn O'Hara sh1tein on, there is only 1 camera, and zero efforts at replays.

Not good enough frankly.... During the lock down we saw lots of clubs and Co boards free streaming games and many had decent setups, including a simple replay function of scores and major incidents. We even had the camera man with the rag out wiping the rain off the camera...

We don't need super d dooper production values like the NFL or anything, but for it should be better than this, especially when there is a decent cost to accessing it.

Made a lot of errors in the Leinster Final game.

I taught Shane Dowling made an ass of himself today ,he was fidgiting all trough the analysis and starting blowing trough his hole at the end about Limerick being mighty team for winning the last couple of games by a point .IF right was right Clare should have had that free at the death of the match and Limerick also had the rub of the green against Cork!!!

The picture quality on RTE was very poor again today for both matches.

It seems to be getting worse.

The Sunday Game is terrible for that - whoever wins a 1 point game is lauded and the flaws of the loser are highlighted, but never a balanced analysis. It's lazy really.

The format of the Sunday game is all wrong IMHO.

It pines back to the days when there was only 1 game to cover, Michael Lyster talking for ages to Enda Colleran about the game. Now we have live coverage plus so called analysis in the afternoon, followed by highlights and more bland analysis of the same games in the evening.

Un many cases, there is more talk than action shown in the evening, especially when there are a lot of games. The audience doesn't want detailed analysis on the Sunday evening show, in many cases the viewer is a casual observer who isn't interested in the nuances,juat the bit of craoc and who won "man o the match (I know, player of the match)

More action less chatter I'd say. Get a few lads or lassies to just comment quickly, maybe with a bit of humor, and move on quickly with the next game. Detailed over analysis is available on many many pods and radio shows. The SG is not the place for it.

Morrissey does seem to have become more ‘flowery’ in his commentaries recently.

Love in?? Joe Canning had a whole section on why every goal Limerick scored against Cork should have been disallowed, never challenged on it either...

.......or worse, missing a kick/pick out to see some artsy slow Mo of an ould lad with a big belly waving his flag and yahooing after the last score!

GAAGo is owned 50/50 by RTE and GAA so I assume it's pretty much all RTE on the operation/technical front.

No matches on RTE again today.

Coverage by RTE has been dire this year.

why would they when they can charge people to watch them on GAAGO?

The cameras they have been using for the main games in Hurling this year have been crap too.

Looks like upscaled HD for alot of the matches, its been very difficult to see the sliotar.
