Final next week should be interesting, great episode tonight.

The Cavan family should be favourites.

The daughter had all the hallmarks of I don’t want to do this. Arm injury last week to practically walking the eliminator. I was wondering how she will even get up the ramp if close. She jump started and still last after a few seconds

I favoured them (stratfords) from the start, they're all fit and hungry for victory

Green&Red

I'd say the Bonners should be favourites but they're not a team, your man cillian storming ahead, the other families have better teamwork. He's by far the strongest left in the comp but even at the cargo nets he just plowed on, left the weaker ones behind

Oh my god, the Maher's mother being thrown around like a ragdoll in the mud by her 2 sons had the wife and I HOWLING with laughter. It was like a war movie or something where they're pulling an injured soldier around to safety.

And all that for nothing. She cost them the win in the Eliminator at the end. They would have won without her.

Yes and in the end it was her fault that they did not win the Eliminator. She was there weakest link. They would have got to the final without her.

Green&Red

Very harsh on the mam there, she did not look like an athlete and came within a whisker of getting up the ramp, she got round the eliminator quicker than a few of the opposing team

Mantis Toboggan

Each family is only as strong as their weakest link.

surely if they have to wear helmets they should have stopped when mothers helmet came off, pause the clock, put helmet back on.

if she had hit her head after that could have been some repercussions for the production company.

I said it on the night, they either need to give them helmets that will stay on, or make them secure then properly (I don't know what the problem is, but an amazing amount of them are not on the contestants heads a lot of the time!)

Trampas

Need to fit the go pros better also. How many get caught in a net or something

Looking forward to the final. Xmas party tonight so the couch tomorrow with some tv is just the ticket. Love to shout at them to run when I'm lying on the couch with chocolate

Heroditas

Really looking forward to the final tomorrow. I shouldn't but I really did laugh at the Mahers doing a muddy impression of Weekend at Bernie's last week

AMKC

Well it's the final. I think Nina Carburys family have a good chance of winning this.

AMKC

I hope the Cork team win.

AMKC

Go on the Murphys from Carlow.

AMKC

Well well done to the Staffords.

wrangler

Go on Stratfords, I Should've put money on them

AMKC

Murphys doing good here :)

That was some performance by the Murphys Mum.

The Princess Bride

Great banter between the members of each family, lovely to see. Also, less shouting from the coaches makes this a more enjoyable series for me than previous ones.

A Stratford versus Murphy final, surely.

A Stratford versus Murphy final, surely.

Yes it's looking like that alright.

AMKC

The Bonners done great there.

Sandbags over sisters and daughters said the Bonnar men.

Mo Ghile Mear

Davy is no loss really, the other coaches support and encourage their teams far better without resorting to screaming or petulance. Respect for all the families... whoever wins, they’re all winners.

AMKC

I am delighted that The Murphys got that one.

They all done great do.

appledrop

Im glad its a Murphy v Stafford final, more evenly matched.

AMKC

This is going to be close. Both teams doing good.
