This may be true if it were in fact a dome but it is in fact a regular A-Roof shaped marquee. This will surely play into the hands of the irish girls who will be used to making appearances in regular marquees at local pattern days and festivals.
Well, I suppose a lot depends on the actual playing surface inside this dome and whether itâs synthetic grass, astroturf, wooden flooring, carpet or something else. I expect the ladies will be trying out several different types of footwear during rehearsals to make sure theyâve the correct studs for the big night. There wouldnât be anything more embarrassing that an escort having to run onstage with a change of footwear early in the interview.
Having thread the boards in the âDomeâ last year I can confirm it is a wooden flooring. Not the most forgiving on the knees when dance-off moves go awryâŚ
I canât understand why none of the girls donât wear that black paint stuff under their eyes when on stage like the NFL players. All those lights shining down on them - itâs inevitable the glare is going to interfere with some of the ladies.
I think under the official rules of the Rose of Tralee the black paint is banned due to itâs performance enhancing capabilities.
Rumour has it the Australian branch are experimenting with AFL style sleveless dresses for a more aerodynamic entrance and exit from the stage. These will also come in handy during dance routines.

Toronto is a shockerâŚ
new zealand has an awful nozzle on herâŚid say she can smoke in the shower the size of itâŚ
Jayz, Liverpool is the worst
Christ, nothing much to write home about there. It could be the poorest crop since the ill-fated class of '89.
I donât know Bandage. Theyâd have to be a particularly bad bunch to beat '89. Gay Byrne was said to be very traumitised after that show as was the rest of the viewing public.
On a better note the Tipp bird would definitely get it. Sheâs the bookies fav too.
Toronto looks like she has one of those false teeth sweets in her gob
On further review Cork has been showing nice snippets of form.
I wonder does she have a bebo siteâŚ
It should be a photo finish between Kildare and Tipperary but byelaw 45.12.1.(a) says they have to give it to a munter every few years in order to claim that ridiculous things like personality, charity work and singing and danceability are also considered by the judges. That means Toronto is in with a good shout.
She could eat an apple through a letterbox by the looks of itâŚ
Donât let their blond hair hide the fact that some of those getting good reports here are distinctly average.
Just like in everyday life, a bit of blonde hair always goes a long way towards covering up averageness. You see a flash of blonde hair from a distance and you think ânow this could be goodâ, then you start running to catch up with her and you see a bit of leg and you think âfook, this could be qualityâ. Then you walk past, swivel the head around and look down and you see a bit of cleavage and you think âmotorboat!!â. Then your mate whose less of a perv goes âah come on, have you seen her face?â and you think âno, actually i havenâtâŚugh, pretty rottenâŚbut i still wouldâ
I was full sure Toronto was worst until I saw that Liverpool yoke jumping in the second photo down on the left. She looks about 40.

Boston Rose. Rough enough.
Anyone else getting pre-peagant nerves??
Less than 4 hours until the first of this years blooms makes her way out. Lets hope this years is a cracker but judging by some the photos it may be a bad one.
