Canning repeatedly stated Limerick had guaranteed their Munster Final spot. This was incorrect
Darren on the radio also referred to him as Ruairi Kavanagh before correcting himself and saying Ruairi Canavan.
Tipperary footballers were Connacht Champions in 2020 according to Darren

I heard that 
He was on Saturday Sport about Irelands upcoming games in the nations league. He started listing out fixtures galore. Our toughest fixture was going to be our trip to Ukraine.
He isnt wrong. They’ll come all guns blazing. Be like a warzone
I was in Łódź last week, it’s not far off that description…
Darren reckons that New York were fortunate not to beat Sligo a few weeks ago.

Darren was reporting on a victory for an Irish boxer this morning at 7.35. He briefly became confused and stated that he had beaten Lewis Hamilton in the fight before quickly realising his mistake, chuckling and correcting himself that it was in fact Lewis Richardson. He’s teasing us at this stage.

UnFrehill related, but who was the radio 1 commentator on Clare vs Meath? He liked using the word gimp an awful lot. “Gimpish run” “gimpy kick”.
Martin Kiely. An awful dose.

Heard it! He’s the gift that keeps on giving
I watched the draw there on RTE News Now, what a bonus it was to not just hear Dazzler in action but to see it as well.
He stumbles into the studio about 10 seconds before the draw starts, nearly falls over getting into his chair, just about manages to get his headphones on when he’s cued to start the draw segment. He makes a joke about getting in just on time. The draw starts (not that you see it, the camera cuts to the person pulling out the names only after each one has been drawn and announced), and Darren motions to Audrey Carville that he needs to borrow her pen as he doesn’t have one himself to write down the pairings, presumably he wouldn’t be able to remember them 30 seconds later to have a perfunctory “analysis” of each game. What a pro.
The highlight was a cheeky quip about playing Mayo v Kildare in Newbridge, which went down like a lead balloon with Larry Mc.
