Say what you want about how they play the game but admire the all merciful and sheer ruthlessness of finishing out games. 3 knockout games, 3 one point victory. Astounding Springboks #RWCFinal

A club game for the ages, and now we have the treat of a penalty shootout. What a The GAA club semi-final between St Thomas and Ballygunnar. Incredible stuff for the Saturday a week before Christmas, Failte Spórt TG4 .

That miss by #LukeLittler On 122 to make it 5-2 was the turning point. All the momentum and having to stop in mid flow just was ultimate hammer blow. Flashback of Michael Van Gerwen against Taylor in 13. Littler lost nothing in defeat because the form man victorious. #DartsWorldChampionship

In the pre YouTube era of video tape, I used to wear out watching clips of #FranzBeckenbauer and #jprwilliams. Football and Rugby Union superstars from the past. To hear both have died on the same day is devastating. The defensive line getting into heaven is difficult tonight.

What a coup for RTÉ Sport to have Jerry Flannery for the coverage of the Guinness Men's Six Nations . An encyclopedia of defensive coaching notes and a knowledge of the game which really is brilliant for the viewer. No wonder the World Champion Springboks have added him to their staff.

Wonderful European gold medal for Ciara Mageean. The smile when she went thru the gap of the 2 British runners to power to the finish line 👏

A fitting and spectacular piece to honour a true giant of Irish society. One of life's greats. Met him when he was still the best in the business and will remain that way. An icon who made The GAA our special piece of Irishness. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam Mícheal.

Sometimes, it's the attention to detail you have to admire. Always have said that in terms of competition and levels the National League is the The GAA best competition played at worst time of year. Managing to do this coverage on the fraction of budget is fab. Spórt TG4👏.
