Did you hear this hilarious joke I just came up with? The GAA stands for Grab All Association? Bet you've never heard that one before.

Can you imagine what gaelic football would be like in the Olympics. Sure now, RTÉ can use Joe Brolly (what a wally) and BBC have a crew from Northern Ireland but who would, say, CCTV or like Antiguan TV use? That would be banter.

Yeah, but what about, say, Cypriot TV (before Eurosport). They would be in a bit of a hole. How many gaelic footballers have media training and know Greek?

 

Mind you, the UK would be fine. There are some great British players. And I'm sure they would be delighted to represent Team GB. From Antrim to Armagh, from Lisburn to Londonderry...

 

And the fine crop of lads coming through for London. We beat the Déise last year.

That's cool! So eventing cross-country course will be right beside rowing/canoeing lake. That should provide some lovely shots. :)

Anyone know when first news of qualifiers are?

 

I suppose that some pre-qualifications in team sports will be the first to start, however, the first direct qualifiers will probably be the 2018 Shooting World Championships and World Equestrian Games.
