    TV3 are doing themselves no favours - their coverage is practically unwatchable apart from the actual match. Best to tune 10 sec before a game starts, hit the off button at half time and at full time. 'Analysis' is just a joke - wall to wall adverts. Big turn off.

    Don't forget ITV4HD is encrypted for ROI viewers. ITV4 though is 'in the clear.'

    If you have an Irish HD subscription it clears through "Other Channels" :)

    That's good news. Would be interesting to know viewing figures for RWC in ROI comparing TV3 to ITV.

    The amount of Ads on TV3 is brutal, there's so many ads their analysis isn't worth watching. Like watching NFL. Their set looks like they're robbed something from Stade Francais.

    Their own commentary is terrible, its like something from a computer game. If there's a tackle or play changes from what the commentator was saying, he just keeps going because he hasn't been programmed to f***ing adjust.

    It's pretty much what I expected.

    An awful lot of people don't have a sky HD subscription... for TV3 to expect people to pay sky €15 for the privilege is disgraceful.

    Free ITV1 HD is brilliant to have available.

    They had about 2 mins talk about the use of tmo and then went to ads, so pretty much the same as Tv3. They are both funded via advertising so hardly a surprise
