    No, I missed it. It did sound like an interesting series though!

    If there's one thing you can rely on, it's that Setanta will repeat stuff.

    Flicked on the other morning, they were showing a full replay of the B&I Cup final, six weeks after it happened.

    Saw it. They followed Rolland around a few games. One of them was the Munster V Ulster game where he didn't have a good game. There was also a Leinster Cup final where you would hear Rolland say something like: "Hey, I know what it's like to play in these games". I am not sure what the point of that is.

    Really think Owens surpassed him in the last few years, clearly as the Europe's top ref.

    I forgot I had it recorded so I watched it this evening, I have to say I didn't enjoy it he seemed to be very self absorbed, I really didn't get all the bits with him stretching. I know I'm biased, but I thought he came across poorly in the Ulster Munster game, the France Wales game they pretty much just wanted to show that he could speak French. I think it could have been a lot better if they could have shown a bit of his work/family life and the sacrifices he has to make.
