:D deadly
Agreed, I thought it was top class
The montage on BBC was muck - just like their analysis all tournament
Was Good allrite. Anyone remember the one they did for 2002 where they showed every goal(was really well put together). They used to show it everynight when RTE1 was closing down. Beats the National Anthem anyday
Yeah, they played Feeder's just a day over it, top tune.
Haven't seen the montage your talking about but going on RTE's past performances in this area I'm looking forward to it.
As mentioned the WC 2002 montage with the Feeder song was top notch, They always seem to choose the right music for their adds.
Just look at their WC 2006 preview montage with the graffitti, the world cup legends and the great music.
Olympics, GAA, F1 you name it what ever sport RTE have they have a top notch add to go with it. I even like the current add for RTE sport with all their sports presenters sitting on stage in a theatre talking.
Come to think of it the vast majority of RTE's inhouse adds are good. There was a really good add on last week for last nights Net2 programming. They had seemlessly blended Fr. Ted, Lost and I think Scrubs.
PS I have not links what so ever to RTE or anybody that works there.
Can anyone not help thinking "Why dont they put that kind of effort into our own footie??" ...... does it go someway to highlight their little self imposed inferiority complex which is absurd to say the least given they are our National Broadcaster.
The quality of their montage illustrates the ability is actually there, and it heralds their attitude towards their own domestic league and their disgraceful display of contempt that they play out for football here from one world cup to the next.
To see this attitude illuminate itself on our screens like that demonstrates what an embarrassment they are to Irish fans. Instead of pioneering and spearheading the attributes of the domestic game, they sheepishly and shamefully opt out at every opportunity.
We all should play our part aswell in recognising that and never forgetting it, the crime they commit against the Irish game week in week out.
even rocky needs a montage.....
The bit when George Hamilton mentions "danger here" is classic, in a self deprecating kind of way.Quote:

A very fair shout A Face, and one I second wholeheartedlyQuote:

Can't find RTE's yet, but here is the U.S. one from ABC. Don't fear, it's not that bad actually. Excellent editing.
Great version of U2's one also. U2 always improve on their album tracks with their live offerings in my view.
The BBC's montage is available on a bittorrent site. still not sure of the site policy on torrents, so pm me if you want a link
Stephen Alkin, didn't even notice that Huth wasn't playing for 10-15 minutes of the 3rd/4th place match on Saturday.
Robert Huth was injured in the warm up and was replaced by Jens Nowotny. The team shown on the continuous botto of screen caption continued to show Huth in the team right through the first half.....
It was nice to see they don't reserve incompetence for EL commentaries!
Definately, especially with Joe Brolly saying "I cant even go for a cupQuote:
