    Funny thing about the competition, you think you've seen a winning performance, then it's shattered!

    He was a great footballer for Kildare in his day. Tough.

    Don't know about the rest of you, but the coach chatting their encouragement would do my head in, I'd rather my own silence.

    Probably allows for multiple episodes to be filmed in one day.

    Incredible, especially as you could see her starting to struggle a few minutes in and she really put her mind over matter!

    The Cody lad is such a wee dote too.

    This relay looks like great craic!!

    The ordering of the events has a lot to do with the outcome. If the relay race was first the family with 3 lads would have done well! Maybe a combination of events wud be fairer like subtract the time from the sitting event from the time taken to do the hay bale race or something?

    I was thinking that about the one on the cube before, if u took 4 huge steps quickly and got it done youd be laughing and less time to loose your balance

    Tycie showed good pace there.

    Usually men 52-64yrs excel at mentally tough events like Hanging Tough and backs to the wall. In running events they have endurance but the burst of explosive pace that someone has in their 20s and 30s is gone.

    We knew the minute we seen the last family that they wouldn't go through as no auld lad on team!

    It was unreal the way three fathers lasted in that wall challenge.

    I'd fear though it will wreck them for other rounds.

    Love the Cody's, the little fella looks about 10 against others but he is fast.

    A father or strong son got injured a few years ago on a team. The opposing team dropped a strong team mate, and lost.

    Mileys weren't going to drop the dad!

    He was unbelievable on wall challenge he kept them going for so much longer through encouragement.

    He is a great coach no wonder he does so well in GAA.

    Married Ronans role is fairly pointless now that she doesnt speak to the contestants. Daragh Maloney could do the intro and outro sure!

    I'm sure she is still been paid plenty for doing very little!

    She is not needed at all.
