    I've never seen anything like it. You could be right. It's like the old d'unbelievables sketches

    That's a penalty. Stood on his foot as he was an option for a pull back

    Unless it is a sort of joke - Apres Match style.

    had that guy not been fouled, he would have been available to receive the ball in a very dangerous position…

    VAR didn’t even look at it…

    Disgraceful!!

    Edit: I've just started watching and see everyone else is commenting on it😅

    Have they been shiteing on like this all game? They'll have to break them up.. it's a bromance.

    Commentary is growing on me I must say.

    That Michael Chang comment was the most random thing I've ever heard uttered from a commentator.

    Kenny's apathy towards American culture/sports knows no bounds

    Love the music and fans - I'm the one and only - love the hydration breaks.

    I actually feel bad about the trouble they might get in. They're clearly having good fun and they were right about the hydration break coming at an awful time

    Russell Crowe is a very versatile man.. you have to hand it to him, he can turn his hand to anything.

    Kenny Cunningham on the hydration breaks “I’m embarrassed as a former professional, what do the Gah lads, and hurlers think of us?”

    😂

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I'd genuinely say - that they spoke about the 2nd half for about 5 mins from last 30 mins

    I'm beginning to like this commentary.. Did you see the Munster Final? 🤣

    You would struggle to call this commentary.

    The lads are just shooting the breeze. They might just start reading out comments from here next.

    Hugh literally hasn't commented on the actual game in ages.

    Imagine relying on him to describe what's actually happening.....

    I can see the lads over a few pints later..

    Hugh: Would you like to make love to me Kenny?!

    Kenny: Possibly so!

    Look - you could say that there are so many games and bad games - maybe something different - original, has grounds. I like a mess and a joke myself - but I was not ready. It went on for 2 mins , you went ok grand - then 4 grand - then 10 do they genuinely know they are live - then 15 ok this is a bet - work to rule - scripted - 20 mins , could there be drugs - 40 mins ok is this comic genius or do they want the sack.

    Next week - both sacked

    Following week - ah go again , I'm ready for more - but ready

    To be fair, they're talking about anything that actually happens on the pitch.

    But it's not a great game

    I think they have genuinely forgotten they are meant to be watching and describing a match

    Ranting again

    Kenny has a problem with that coming together 5mins ago, with Hugh saying there was nothing in it.....then spends the next 5mins saying how everyone is a pussy now, and Best and Diego loved getting hit and giving hits

    Which is it Kenny ?

    And the winner of the RTE World Cup competition gets to spend the weekend of the World Cup final with Kenny and Hugh and commentate on the final with them. What an amazing prize!
