    90 min build up is a joke,

    The montage team at TV3 have spent the past year in the Blackbird in Rathmines listening out for edgy tunes. Today is their time.

    Yes, disrespectful IMO, but nothing of the sort today thankfully. Today's TV3 commentary seems to be the world feed. It's not ITV's though.

    I brought that up on another thread, and it appears that what happened was that TV3 showed us delayed footage of the Fijian haka (Cibi?) but streamed the live audio from the stadium.
    It looked and sounded very bad all right, but wasn't a true picture of what actually happened.

    TV3 switching second half to 3e. Might piss some people off?


  • Registered Users Posts: 751 ✭✭✭lologram


    Picture quality on 3e is awful


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,646 ✭✭✭✭El Weirdo


    Hate TV3, so stuck ITV on for a look at Tonga v Georgia.

    *sigh*

    Is this the first live TV on 3e?

    Pretty sure they've done UEFA Cup games before.

    Some great insights on Joe Schmidt from Shane Jennings.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 210 ✭✭Tompatrick


    Jennings is good. Cooper remains a dunce


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,569 ✭✭✭✭ProudDUB


    Great to see Jennings being allowed to actually speak, instead of all the constant cutting across each other that goes on with McGurk & Hook.

    Ive heard Jenno speak before at Supporters Club sessions and stuff, he does not do flowery and im really looking forward to the likes of him and Wood giving unglossed experienced analysis. So long as Cooper keeps himself out of it, it should be a better watch than the jingoistic ITV jamboree. The worst of BBC/Sky/BT lads on loan, no thanks.

    Switching the match to SD and showing a lad sitting in a chair in HD doesn't make any sense.

    Anyone hear Matt cooper say toin coss?


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,406 ✭✭✭RedXIV


    Is the 3player the best way to watch the matches if you've no TV package? The pic quality from today's match compared to last night is dire?!

    Lol showing your age.

    Murray Kinsella of 'The 42' and Sinead Kissane of TV3. She always gets a christmas card from Eddie O'Sullivan.

    Absolutely not. I'm very happy that TV3 are showing the whole tournament. Better than Setanta having all the games in the past.

    That's not a knock on Setantas coverage by the way.

    Very abrupt ending to the Georgia Tonga coverage on 3e. Was enjoying looking at the Georgian celebrations. And for what? A repeat of a UK game show.

    Someone on the Group C thread said the coverage ended, if true I suppose we can't blame TV3/3e for it.

    This was a better turn out by TV3 today and was good job on what was not a good game. The commentary was far tighter and it turned what was a fringe game into what a casual fan would possibly have considered to be an excellent game. It will be interesting to see how the next three games shape up as the bar has been raised.

    I meant that was the end of TV3/3e's coverage, I've no idea if they're still analysing it on ITV.

    Ah right, thought you meant the break in coverage when Georgia were celebrating

    So. Many. Ads.

    This stupid psychologist skit was on earlier. Maybe don't do 90 minute build up if you don't have content to fill it.

    Conor McNamara's accent is situated somewhere between London, Los Angeles and Limerick.
