That’s a grand bottle of popcorn

This should be a cracking finish between Doom and Dobson

4 amazing ambassadors. At a time when we struggle to keep young girls in sport hopefully this kick starts something positive

A very good swimmer.

Agreed. Did you know he’s married to RTÉ political correspondent Mary Regan & competes in open water swimming competitions (cc @Juhniallio)?

Gillick exudes soundness. He’s walked the walk & knows how to treat the interviewees to put them at ease.

Agreed, he’s excellent at it.

Am I dreaming this up or did he save somebody’s life jumping into the Liffey a while back?
