You obviously havent seen the other thread I set up within about 10milliseconds of yours..

This is amazing that they have the captain from the last Mayo win.. He's still in pretty good mental fettle as well.. Very good show so far tonight from what I've seen...

Seoige rocking the Greek Goddess look also helps with the enjoyment.

efb

Very enjoyable- v soft focus - aimed at an older audience- but I like it, v traditional v GAA

There's always going to be a certain amount of twee to Up for The Match, but in fairness I think this is a good show tonight. The guests they've had on tonight so far have been very enjoyable, I think.

A very good atmosphere in the room too!

Ah, great song- I want Mayo to win tomorrow but can't deny this is a tune!

ProudDUB

Ah Summer In Dublin....fond memories of that belting out from the speakers of Croker two summers ago & us mad yokes on the Hill dancing deliriously to it until the stewards kicked us out...

Fat Larry should be on all night. Falling off the chair laughing with him.

Yeah, for definite.

Wish this was on for a couple of hours more. Even if it is twee (in the extreme).

JonathanAnon

Really looking forward to tomorrow.. I hope Mayo win, cos they deserve it.. Just hope there are no referee ingdecisions that become the focus of the game.. I have a serious problem with the gentle pushing of Dublin towards victory that we normally get in Croke Park, and I hope we dont see any of that tomorrow.. Having said that, I dont have anything against the Dublin team.. even as a Kildare man.. they are a very strong, fast, positive, exciting team to watch...

The semi final was exceptional game... And probably the first proper football game I've seen in a long time. Hopefully tomorrow will be just as exceptional.

Hahaha! Hilarious!

Great to see Micheál Ó Muircheartaigh in such good form, last couple of times I saw him on telly I thought he was a bit shook but he was flying it tonight, fair play to him.

So are most guys in the GAA but a lot of them don't show it and have this false modesty thing going on cos in Ireland you're not supposed to be proud of what you achieve.

Did I watch the same show as you all did? Because I switched it off after half an hour, Long before Brush Shiels came on, but after Oliver Callan's attempt at pretending to be Damien Dempsey. The guy is a pale imitation of Mario Rosenstock, who is a pale imitation of a decent comedian.

Not a fan of Grainne Seoige, I don't care for her. I think RTE have far better presenters, who know all about sport such as Evanne Ni Chuillean or Jacqui Hurley. Grainne comes across as far too fake, and not just because of all the slap she is wearing.

(Slap is make-up for those who don't know the slang term. Just in case people think I am making threats or something. )

markomuscle

I would marry Grainne in the morning and her sister

Anyone know where I can find that Bait Yiz Damo Dempsey p-take skit they did? Thought it was brilliant. Know it was called Bait Yiz but just can't find it online. Thought it might be on youtube by now!
