It's like something out of a really scary movie now.

But I can't understand what they're going to be doing initially or why they need to be there or how they're being allowed to be there.

But it's scary for sport when this is... I don't think Trump is going to the Super Bowl this year, is he?

I'm not on the road, obviously.

I'm on the desk now.

But obviously our requirements from what people are doing now for us has changed.

Yeah.

I'm full of that.

And it's evolving and it's not a bad thing or it's not a good thing.

Personally speaking, in terms of, you know, the written word, shall we call it, be that, you know, independent.ie, version of it, whatever.

I think less and less these kind of gigs, these kind of player or...

gatherings that are in controlled environments are of less interest to us and our audience and this they rightly now sit in other areas like in the social sphere or in a lot of sports are producing their own content around what their rugby, soccer you were talking about the new GAA studio this is the way it's going to go this controlled environment

And I don't think that's one that we need to be part of, to be perfectly honest, because we can bring something.

We do bring something else.

We bring a level of experience and expertise and insight to sports journalism.

And I think what Andy Farrell says or what any manager says in the GAA is not really true.

our market anymore and you know you have to touch on it and you have to dip in on it and you have to pick up bits and pieces of it but you mentioned the rowing I mean you know that's a good example of something that's outside that sphere that's got value and that's

Yeah, if anything, for our kind of media end of things, the real value for somebody like Rory or Cian being at these things is just to develop relationships with people.

You know, you might get five minutes, but like...

You have to be there so that that's your beast.
