A voice that doesn’t sound like a donnybrook drill would be a starting point for a Commentator. I, for one, won’t miss him.

Is she the next cab off the rank?

:disappointed:

Is this the lad who missed the bus on France there a couple of weeks ago?

Dunno Fagan, he does love his rugby and unlike Ryle actually plays a big to be fair to him.

What will he be commentating on, a highlights package?

The ladies rubby matches.

Is the AIL shown on tv?

The business end.

I’m surprised someone like Eir havent tried to pick it up on the cheap - would surely attract as much audiences as many GAA club games that they are now showing.

Hes got a commentary gig with BT now

Believe it or not he’s (Aherne) taken on a marketing/communications role with Supermacs (cc @iron_mike)

Thats an ooooffft to Supermacs boy.

Believe it or not I already knew that, and didn’t really think he was going to get the job of Head of Sports for RTE.

I was driving behind a Land Rover defender there earlier and it had a sticker on it that said Aggressive by Nature Rugby by Choice.

Great to see that rugger is making some serious inroads in the north inner city.

Ryle took the severance package on offer and is happy with his compensation.
