    Exactly . If I could thank this post twice I would

    I love rugby . My favourite game . But it has been hijacked by a wealthy subset in this country. It doesn’t sit well . Thornley won’t criticise. Neither will Wood Kinsella or O Driscoll to name a few. Neil Francis is commander in chief of the spoof brigade.
    They are all set

    “Hijacked by a wealthy subset” 😂 you better sit down before you hear about the entire history of rugby in Ireland.

    Delighted with what happened to them . The biggest bunch of blowhards going*.


    *A planet rugby forum poll had Irish as the biggest blowhards.

    I know they normally keep it Mon - Fri, but I was hoping they might release the live show as a pod yesterday... I guess they will this coming week?

    RTE coverage is brutal. Stephen Ferris's greatest insight was the Japenese won't go down with a fight. However I did enjoy seeing Jamie Heaslip disappearing and reappearing on the set of Teletubbies as part of the "in-game analysis".

    Meanwhile on the highlights show - Fiona Coughlan machine guns out her cliche's. There must be a better female analyst out there.

    A couple of years ago Ken refused to bring back Ken Burley because both times he went on Welsh radio giving them loads of shít before the match and the team ended up losing. And it's happened again.

    Really, really enjoyed the Player's Chair with Matt Doherty. Very easy to listen to him talk.

    Yeah, the players chair was brilliant.
    Matt Doherty speaks well and doesn't shy over any information.
    Richie's 'personal injury' story was also quite amusing!

    I was enjoying the post-Japan match podcast until DO'D came on stage. It was probably funny if you were there... but I'm not a fan of him

    I think Ken broke his own PB for question length around 3 times in his convo with Wilson today. Comical

    Actually ended up skipping most of this interview after listening to the first 4 or 5 minutes. Ken was very disjointed, focusing on stuff like the Red Bull project etc with long rambling questions, tripping over himself and generally making no sense.

    The Doherty interview was great but I don't think richie added anything to it.

    Was at Volbeat last night, they came on stage to Red Right Hand, so when they were coming on all I could think was 'What you've said isn't really true' and 'Fuuh f*cksake'

    Young Horgan has a lot to answer for.

    It was a good interview with Matt Doherty, even if I'm not sure if he's really that likable a guy.

    In what way? I'm not having a go at you at all by the way, just curious as I thought he sounded like a sound lad.

    Eighteen, sorry, nineteen books of a one joke character - he's a South Dublin posh-boy who speaks funny - gets pretty stale. Fair play to him for making an industry out of it.

    The new one was out there a fortnight ago - an ideal present for fathers and brothers that you can't think of anything else to get, especially coming up to Christmas.

    I seem to receive the latest one as a Christmas present every year and I always assume the joke is stale and tired but the books always find a way to give me a chuckle. There's some very fine topical satire in there if you know how to spot it.

    Ken is going to be insufferable in the football pod this week after David Luiz scoring for Arsenal in their 1-0 win today

    The Luiz joke is so stale now.
