    Camera work is a bit crap but other than that it's not too bad.

    BOD has done more for Ireland as a sporting nation than Keane has to be fair.

    It is live, in the intro, they knew the result of tonight's soccer game. No way of knowing if certain bits (like the ROG interview) are pre taped though.

    I'm liking this, as someone else said here it's nice to see your non-traditional RTE heads being given a chance on the national broadcaster.

    Cameras definitely need improving but that should come with time.

    I like the mix of different sports too- I'd be a hurling person but would have a passing interest in all sports really so it's good that they touch on a mix. Always liked that about their radio show anyway.

    Well, they were talking about the match earlier on at the intro, I assume it was....

    I'd love to bin those couches....ROG is a very quite unassuming lad with a very funny dry wit............

    Good to see. I hope this show gets all the sports people pencilled in for the late late. Tubs interviewing sports people is a joke!
    Looking forward if they get some big foreign names in too.

    Great respect for Rog as a player but he is painful to listen to :o

    In fairness to him it is his personality and there's no bs with him

    Who said it was like Top Gear?

    They have a cool wall!

    :-D :-D

    Pretty good so far. Hard to get a balance between general sport and recent matches, though they always nailed that balance on their other shows.

    They should make ROG do his interview in French. That would be a bit of craic. :P But otherwise this is incredibly painful to watch.

    True, though Bill and the boys covered the match enough I think.

    Did RTE ever broadcast that cancelled episode of ALF in 1990?

    They could have had a few takes ready.

    If it was live I would have expected more talk about the match, and the studio talk after. . (ie joking that Dunphy hadn't changed since the ninties)

    I'd also expect more references to tweets.

    Keane ahead of O'Driscoll anyway IMO

    And mayber McGrath and certainly Ronnie Delaney, who won an Olympic Gold medal in athletics, FFS.

    Big fan of O'Dricscoll, but he's playing a minority sport, on a world stage: it's only played in any way seriously in about 8 countries and it's far from the biggest sport in most of those.

    I find what he he saying interesting.

    If you want to be 'entertained' maybe try Graham Norton :)
