The Joe Brolly tells porkies thread

Evanne should get a shot at it whenever sheā€™s back from the baby.

Feels like sheā€™s been pregnant forever.

Joanne is good. The one thing I wouldnā€™t accuse her of is trying to keep everybody in line as well. I think sheā€™s almost too far the other way at times, trying to make out any comment to be controversial

I liked Brolly too but he was clearly after becoming a bit unhinged and it was a matter of time before he said something silly

Joanne Cantwell called out Brollyā€™s nonsense and heā€™d didnā€™t like it. Heā€™s a big ego and used to dominating and she stood him down.

It was her first year on the show. The suits removed him to make it more manageable for her though she was doing fine. He disappeared up his own arse long ago and made it easy for them.

It wasnā€™t embarrassing. It was fcuking bizarre. I couldnā€™t believe it.

No offence to Laurita, but could Joe not do a lot better for himself.

Thatā€™s another word to describe it.

Brolly would have more in his little finger to be able to dispose of Cantwell. Cantwell had weak management onside though so there was only going to be one winner. RTƉ is a far lesser place for it

Cantwell should have been sacked from rte for the way she questioned Jimmy Barry Murphy a few years back.

Sheā€™d ate hay

Cantwell said he was contradicting himself (which he does) and he got into a little bit of a huff.

You can read him in the Sunday Independent every week if you like.

Has Brolly ever been on BBC NI coverage or would he not go there on principal ?

:joy::joy::joy:

There you go Joe ā€¦imagine what its like if you werenā€™t from thereā€¦

Joe is the most watchable pundit ever on Irish TV next to maybe dunphy. He absolutely spot on with his recent comments on the north but heā€™s also a bit of a bully. A massive contradiction of a man.
The ironic thing about his downfall with rte is that it wasnā€™t some fearless calling it as it is, it came because he was buried so far up Dublinā€™s collective holes he lost the ability to see that was happening in front of him.
