Do you really think that the likes of Pat Dolan or Roddy Collins would have held their own beside such former players as Giles, Brady and Souness?
I think the eL manager who could possibly come across the best would be Pat Fenlon but what experience has he of world football? At least Dunphy has been writing about it for years. Souness, Irwin and Cunningham have all been to world cups as players. Brady and Giles both should have played at world cups. If there was a thread on "Best players never to make a World Cup" these two would on top of the list.

Behind Best presumeably. Dolan could probably hold his own. Have no idea where you're getting the idea that fenlon would be any use though

Obviously Best would be top of that list.
I think Pat Dolan would have turned RTE's coverage into a joke. Most people here and from those that I have spoken to about World Cup coverage believe RTE's was the best. I know we complain about Giles bringing everything back to Priemership Players and football. I don't necessarly agree with him doing this but the Priemership had the largest percentage of players at the world cup with Arsenal and Chelsea being the two teams that contributed most players to the World Cup. Brady did also chip in with his knowledge of Italian football with helped in some way to balance the coverage.
We all know that Pat Dolan is a big eL fan. Do we honestly want to hear Pat before a game talking about current and former eL players such as Stern John?
As for the Pat Fenlon comment I have seen him do a few interviews and I thought he came across well. Can't say I've seen much of him not big eL fan. If you think differently about him i'm sure your right.

Rico would be good too as Dunphy wouldn't be able to understand the big words.

Jaysus was unfortunate enough to catch Roddy Collins giving his views sometime during the WC....As with most things on TV3 it was absolutely painful viewing and his "expert opinions" were nothing short of a joke...

Have to agree with you there alright.
It was good but not as good as the 2002 one with the feeder track.
Best bit was the clips of the lads in the studio.

Just found these high quality video montages. You'll just have to try and ignore the US commentary in the Pre-World Cup final one.
