"Tired bodies" must have been on the phrase of the day toilet paper this morning as was used about once a minute during the second half of the welsh game.

Being an ex pro doesn't make you a good pundit. Some former players are thinkers with a good understanding of the game. Like Jennings. Others might have had a good understanding of the game as it was before but is now outdated. Some good players just show no insight or understanding at all, whether that's what they're asked for, or they were just donkeys, or don't express themselves well, who knows. Shane Byrne for example is awful. Others haven't played at that high a level but have good knowledge, such as Murray Kinsella.

Fiona Steed didn't add a whole lot but didn't say anything daft either. Not bad for someone who I don't think has much experience. I don't think anyone would be commenting either way if some lad who'd played a few provincial games a few years ago had said exactly what she did.

"Real Man", was there ever a more ironically named poster?

Its great stuff for the liberals on twitter. The "wage gap" is closing, one step closer to true "equality". I suggest a Black woman as pundit tomorrow for QF3. Then a Muslim refugee for QF4. In the semi finals try someone in a wheelchair and then maybe a Traveller.

I think for the final a Black Muslim woman who is a lesbian, in a wheelchair might just do the trick. TV3s diversity will be through the roof. Although Travellers might be alienated.

??? What the hell are you even on about?

Drunk talk. And if it wasn't, he should certainly claim he was at the time.

Record it. Watch from the start about 45 minutes after the beginning of the program. Skip over ads and anything that looks like panel fckwittery. You will catch up roughly around the anthems.
Can't emphasise enough how much better this makes the viewing experience.
