OTBHRC: Martin Johnson, Brian O'Driscoll, Nick Popplewell and Eddie O'Sullivan

[@somerledislay9987]

A lot of time for the big honest Englishman, God bless big man.

[@gilly2209]

Absolute legend of the game, and actually brilliant to listen to.

[@rmlfilms123]

Martin Johnson, legend and super nice bloke. Met him several times when I photographed rugby matches and he was always super nice.

[@Simon-jj2pu]

Nice bloke and my missus played in the same hockey team as him

[@scott7008]

Its amazing, these icon rugby players have laid their body on the line for years, in one of the most physically demanding games in the world, have been critisised, been dissected by the world press, played on the world stage, in front of the cameras which have no mercy, the press, and the armchair pundits, and yet they are so humble, and almost nervous in the light of cameras. its amazing. only rugby can provide such a substance.

[@hanoitripper1809]

Entertaining interviews 🇬🇧 🇮🇪🍀

[@bulltraderpt]

Really enjoyed the coverage here, and as an Englishman can I just say good luck to both teams on Saturday, Ireland may well do it, being deserved winners this year.

[@MichaelQuinlan207]

Love my sport, love the camaraderie, great to hear these guys talk frankly about the game and their experiences.

[@bigyin2794]

WELL DONE Ireland , great coaching, World Class attitude and execution. Murrayfield next year awaits and we'll try and not make it too easy for you this time.

[@rossmorebaz]

off the ball offer some of the best sports coverage around.. forget RTE and the rest,, the OTB team is the only one i listen to..

[@intissarmahjoub6676]

wonder if he'd have stood in the correct place if the Queen was coming to shake his hand

[@andybrown4361]

@@intissarmahjoub6676 judging by what Johnson said, he had no idea what dignitaries were arriving, so no probably not. They're there to play rugby, not be at a board meeting.

[@jbee9713]

When all the dust settles and players retire, it's doesn't matter where they are from. True fans recognise true talent, wherever they are from 👍👍👍👍👍

[@andywalker9079]

Great stuff

[@questionitall3053]

Great stuff. Martin Johnson was THE greatest England rugby captain EVER. So, him and the Irish great Brian O’Driscal together? Fantastic stuff, cheers!!

[@bulltraderpt]

Ireland really deserved winners, in a really good place going forward, well done. As for England, sort your first choice players out Eddie, I'll back you but only just!

[@mrtheedge2u]

is there a moment in life that Martin doesn't look like he is one wrong word away from uppercutting you into orbit?

[@Jamie-kf2vf]

This coverage is superb. Congrats Ireland! Truly deserved 6N and GS and they are looking like a pretty tasty bet for the RWC if they can maintain their form and consistency. As for England, we have been in steady decline since midway through 2017 6N and this year has really exposed it. I believe we have the players and structure so Eddie needs to develop alternative ways of playing when the game doesn't follow his script. Also apologies for Eddie's comments! He is Australian so sledging is pretty commonplace there and it certainly doesn't echo the views of the English.

[@JimChap]

Jamie Lee.....Ireland might be a pretty tasty bet for runners up - but that will depend on what half of the draw they're on because they have no chance of beating the All Blacks at a world cup.....All Blacks will complete the three-peat next year....Us here in NZ were getting a little bit worried about England's sudden rise in 2016/2017 but they have faded as fast as they rose and our only real threat is Ireland, who are a great side, but under the pressure of a world cup final or semi against the best team in the world I believe that the Irish will fold.

[@combatenthusiast6297]

Nick with a bit of gargle in him is some character

[@benkane5467]

He's unreal! Likes the sound of his own voice a bit too much...

[@Macron87]

“Character”? Hmm... not the word I’m thinking of

[@thingme9941]

As far as i could remember both teams went out on to the stadium together. When did we ever get this need to cheer one side more than another? Good grief1 rugby used to be above those things.

[@LorraineHinchliffe-vg5cb]

Professionalsim and money ended all that, and now we even have politics in sport too unfortunately, that's why.

[@fergalbannon4614]

Weir unfortunately had motor neuron disease, not MS.

[@John_Wood_]

Popplewell needs to put a sock in it.

[@declancole626]

Is that the real life RO'CK?

[@center__mass]

i love the fact that Ireland's biggest baby never beat the ABs , so good

[@celtic333ful]

I think the guy working the camera was drunk

[@SK-qe9br]

He constantly refers to the lions as the British lions

[@Macron87]

Their official name is the British Isles Touring Team. Ireland is, of course, part of the geographic area called the British Isles. It’s not a political term.

[@Macron87]

p.s. He usually says just “Lions”.

[@stephenfranklin525]

popplewell's been banished id say hahaha

[@MorrisdeSaucer]

Great craic , listening to Popenblahablabla......!!! but in fairnesss!!! he is obvious ly, not a true irish rugby player , ok

[@gerardfitzpatrick60]

Nick Popplewell should replace O'Sullivan on Monday & Wednesday night rugby,

[@Comerford1986]

Nick Popplewell for President

[@fiachraswaz]

'whoopdeedoo says you' popplewell you legend

[@seandoran2209]

All southsiders at that...never got my ticket..

[@mbotrestock1901]

The curious cry ideally alert because trail putatively shock round a hurt tornado. hateful, outgoing camera

[@riverwolf654]

That nick guy talks too much

[@shane-irish]

Nick popplewell is so funny gey him on tv

[@abluewhale95]

Shane Canning he's utter cringe. Trying to hard to be funny.. And the fake "look at how upper class I am" accent is puke

[@rossgeography]

He's already - different era

[@shane-irish]

Ross Geography so was george hook

[@chrismurphy4962]

Snob slagging off grounds staff.

[@celtic333ful]

Popplewell did'nt let Johnson finish one sentence
