    This is a thread dedicated to Breffny aka the Breffmeister, The Harvard graduate who has given and continues to give us plenty of laughs and things to talk about on a Monday night. He is also the most successful Project Manager - lead 2, won 2!

    Some of the quotes by Bref so far in the series!

    Episode 1:
    "My questions might be vague but they are never out of place"



    Episode 2:
    "It's like a colouring task"
    "I'm very heartbroken by this"



    Episode 3:
    "Beware of stupid people, they will destroy you."
    "I will fall on my sword completely."
    "My background is in rowing."



    Episode 4:
    "Almost everything I do is a challenge."



    Episode 5:
    "It was in my brain waiting to come out."
    "I was basically standing there like a model."
    "It's not beefier, it's Meteor".



    Episode 6
    "The most important thing is to have a very clear product."
    "It's getting a little bit hay wire."
    "This product could of been great if it was a cracker."
    "There are serious preconceptions about me on this team. People on this team and in the process assume that I don't know what I'm talking about."
    "When I was PM the ship ran smoothly."
    "People think I shouldn't be any more than a tea boy."
    "You need to trust my intuition. When I trust my intuition I win."



    Episode 7
    "Last week he called me the cat with nine lives, this week I feel like the cat that has got the cream."
    "If we lose because of it, it will be death by chocolate."
    "It's nice to know 'Blasta' doesn't have any fadas or anything"
    "Trinity, less association to playing cricket in the middle of Dublin"
    "I have listened to you for half an hour and I haven't been persuaded."
    "My God I am going to feel the heat tomorrow. Give me the seed money and I'll buy a rope."
    "This task has gone haywire. The level of aggression and pent up angst would make the battle of Normandy look like a game of paintball."
    "The way Aoiffe & Ruth were acting, if you manage those two you have the skills to broker world peace. "

    Go Breffmeister!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,633 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    Still think his funniest moment was when he looked at his facial mask and said 'You're Hired', that still cracks me up.

    Also, he was funny in one of the early episodes impersonating the Samsung presentation.

    I found him a complete tool in the first few episodes but he has won me over in the last couple of weeks and I find him hilarious!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 482 ✭✭Innervision


    When he fell up the stairs...priceless


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,025 ✭✭✭smallerthanyou


    Breff was in one of late bars in town last night and had queues of girls lining up to chat to him. My estimation of him has sky-rocketed since!

    Lets just hope though that Bill doesn't come up with a dancing task though or else our Breff is screwed.

    Yeah Brian was really struggling to remain professional looking in the background, who can blame him though!!

    Breff is tv gold :) If they had any sense he'll be there for another few weeks anyway!

    Brefmister to win


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 675 ✭✭✭unichick


    Breffney is hot! Would love to run into him in a pub! Is he not still with Geraldine? :D

    Over 12,000 fans on his page in facebook! More popular than Jedward!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,004 ✭✭✭Ann22


    My hubbie and me both love him. He's so funny! The expressions on his face, the comments..he's just making the show. Much the way James made the uk one.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 446 ✭✭msbrightside


    breffny has to win!
    everyone loves him even that brian guy who is meant to be impartial was punching the air when breffny wouldn't let the girls change the name of the chocolate bar.
    in my opinion though anyone who nearly starts a fight in the boardroom,trips up a stairs,compares themselves to a sandwich when they are project leader and then admits that nearly everything is a challenge to them has got to win!
    love that guy!

    Yeah (if it's not all an act and i doubt it is tbh), his unaffectedness is endearing.

    The Breff speaks the truth!!

    Episode 3:
    "Beware of stupid people, they will destroy you." Breffny Morgan :cool:


    BREFFMEISTER....WHAT A LEDGE!!!:D


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Regional South Moderators Posts: 15,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭rebel girl 15


    For some reason I can't edit my original post,

    Episode 8:
    "It's the pleasure measure (on product)"



    "Looks like the type of packaging you would have on edible underwear, very seductive."



    "I was sweating buckets, I was like Christy Moore."



    "This was a big mess; I didn't make the biggest mess of the mess makers."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,144 ✭✭✭✭Cicero


    SOME SAY..that he can hypnotise rose bushes, and that he names all his shoes, both left and right...all we know is, he's called the Breff:D


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Regional South Moderators Posts: 15,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭rebel girl 15


    Our Breff is a Guinness World Record holder!


    Earlier this year, Bref along with four other Irishmen were part of the 14 man crew of the 'La Mondiale' which broke the record for rowing across the Atlantic. The crew who set out from Gran Canaria on 15 December, beat the record set by a French team, on board the same boat, in 1992 by more than two days. 60 previous attempts resulted in failure to break the record.

    This is part of his biography on that site:
    "His major was Biology, incorporating several projects including caffeine tolerance, muscle memory, and the evolutionary significance of jogging."


    I suppose he will need to re-write his biography after the apprentice to something like this:

    "His major was from HARVARD, incorporating several projects including "Aoife & Sam" intollerance, brain memory (and lack thereof at presentations) and the evolutionary significance of all the other appentices (no impact on evolution was found)" :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,900 ✭✭✭Eire-Dearg


    Just saw this.

    Breffny for president.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Somebody needs to show him this thread. He was truly beloved by all in the Reality TV forum and most others..........................................(but not Aoife)


  • Moderators, Education Moderators, Regional South Moderators Posts: 15,247 Mod ✭✭✭✭rebel girl 15


    Bye Bref! Feel so sorry for him because he got sold by Geraldine :(
