RTE racing coverage

Can't get RTE. Who is on the panel? Cursing, is it Ted?

Yeah Ted cursing....
Lisa O'Neill, Jane Mangan, Hugh Cahill, Brian Gleeson, Katie Walsh.

I don't appreciate how much a good presenter brings to a TV show, until you get a giddy excitable one like Hugh Cahill.

Thanks Cacique. I don't know of Hugh Cahill but Brian Gleeson is not good on ITV

Hugh does the rugby as well.... not being a rugby buff i wouldn't know good or bad in it... but he's probably not costing RTE alot.

Gleeson is trying to be a wanna-be McCririck... shamelessly brown-noses McManus.


And both the ITV and RTE presenters/panels do not ask any worthwhile questions....
I'm not wanting a Paxman like interview but something better than "what does it feel like to win a 9th Champion Hurdle?"

Cahill tries to hide his lack of knowledge by trying to portray himself as knowing more than Ruby Walsh or Barry Geraghty.  On rugby duties he's the exact same in the presence of ex Irish Internationals.

i dont mind cahill. and rte is better than itv, despite o'neill. pity i cant pick it up any more

great coverage
