I’ve never really liked Peter Collins, but he seems like an alright sort. He does seem weirdly passionate about some less high-profile sports, but fair play to him.
Peter Collins is a consummate professional pal, he can turn his hand to anything.

Is it my imagination or was Jimmy Magee doing the gymnastics commentary for the last Olympics?
The lad who came up with the Rings was a sick sadistic bastard

What an absolutely ridiculous sport/carry on that rings and horse thing is. Fucking hell. How can adults partake in such nonsense.
Utterly phenomenal body strength and control, it’s fucking mental really.
The Olympics are great though.

Unreal stuff from Behan
He’s some bit of stuff to even be walking upright let alone that shit. Amazing upper body.
Paddy Barnes is a retard.
@Sidney is Barry Davies commentating on the hockey?
just read Kimmage’s interview with Ciara Jennings the wife of Sam Lynch former Irish rower
its a brilliant piece , was in last sunday’s Sindo, rowers seem to be a different breed complely, she’s a fine looking woman as well
Hon Behan boy
I appreciate the strength required. It’s just a ridiculous carry on and most certainly not a sport.
Every 4 years for 2 weeks we tune in for an A-Z of shit sports .

excellent stuff from RTE
Evann Ni Chuilleann is a lovely bit of stuff as well
Watching the boxing on the BBC here, it’s much better without those fucking helmets.
And I’m not taking about Michael O’Rielly and Billy Walsh btw.
Sinead Jennings, only took up rowing in her 20s I think.
My sister was an elite rower and I grew up with lots of lads who rowed for Ireland at various levels, unbelievable commitment required back then in comparison to the team sports that I played.
the medals still stand dont they?
Yes
Yep, be a brave man/organization to go looking for them. The asterisk will have to suffice
correct
she seems to be a complete nutter
3 kids now, she originally rowed for Scotland, works as a doctor in Limerick
read that interview if you get a chance, it’s vintage Kimmage
