    My great decision today was to take the power lead of the tv box out and put it in the car so my daughter had no wifi (I'm a prick)....now I'm out for dinner and the car is outside....with the lead in the boot. FML

    This is bizarre. I’m pumped up to feck, but I’m also left minding the 10 month old on my own after the wife got a last minute ticket. So I’ve to keep myself in check. If we win this I’ve no idea how I won’t frighten the s**te out of her with my reactions. I’m going to have to put her to bed at half time. No idea how I’m going to be able to tear myself away from the game in order to do that. Even at half time.


    COME ON TO F*********CK!!!!!!

    Its all being absorbed, Rogue-like, by POM at the moment, ready for him to unleash the entire hype and pashun of a nation all by himself.

    I hope that fate is good for us to let Ireland win today. I don't know if the performances for our team last week should give us some idea about what way Ireland will play. But if Ireland throw out that style of play against a team like the ABs; we could see a vastly different Ireland team who are ferociously gearing up for a big win against them which may throw the ABs off the rails without asking for it. Either way; I do hope that this game will be a classic in more ways than one.

    Come on Ireland!!!

    Channel 4 is pretty much a homer for Ireland games though, and I like the Nugent nostalgia.

    At least that soccer commentator from Newstalk doesn't appear to be on RTE.

    Looking forward to the Haka, I gather the All Blacks have been working with a former cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys and have introduced a new flourish right after the second movement. Exciting times #dance_troupe_on_tour!

    Yeah, but you have to add it via other channels. Makes it a pain to casually switch back and forth.

    Stadium and pitch sound better on RTE though.

    I dunno, is it more hilarious that they just went out and approximated it back in the day, or that these very large scary looking lads spend hours endlessly practising their dance moves in a group...
