I tracked down the Irishman who sparred Mayweather in '09. Ended up getting a whole lot more than I bargained for.

First flight got taken down by a bird strike, second flight about to take off for New York. Looking forward to it — could be the last one for a while. A piece on Katie Taylor v Amanda Serrano 3, Jurassic Park, shitty sequels, and Netflix trailers.

Scoreboard obviously influenced Kilkenny to try work a goal at the end — but Tipp also thought they had a three-point lead and dropped back in front of their goal to protect it. Not as simple as ‘Kilkenny could have taken points.’ Entire shape of endgame would’ve been different.

Ronan O’Gara is going to add so much to this Lions tour as a co-commentator. A lovely blend of coaching insight, self-deprecation, Tony Romo-esque premonitions, and accidental French. Dan Biggar top-class also, as always.

Nah, that really did it. I never want to see Castres and Munster play against each other again.

Keith Andrews becomes the first Premier League manager to have played five-a-side with @gcooney93 and me, and equally the first to have Saipaned us at the quarter-final stage — with a trip to Brazil on the line — because he wanted to go and get food.

There’s a group of Argentinians anchored outside The Waterloo on Baggot St, chanting with a couple of lads in Limerick GAA and Munster jerseys. This Lions game in Dublin might be a money racket but the buzz around town is unreal.

The sound on RTÉ’s feed being a full two seconds behind play has turned this end-of-season friendly into a test of my character for which I was frankly unprepared.

Have enjoyed Glasgow’s approach so far but it was unwise to antagonise James Lowe I think. The man has gone demonic.

Hopefully I don’t clog your feeds with this stuff too often, so one more if you don’t mind:. If you sign up, even for that first month for a quid, you’re supporting independent sports journalism and helping us to keep going, really, with the pods, etc. Would be much appreciated.

No catch on that €1 first month either — you can cancel afterwards if you reckon you’re not getting value out of it. Gives you access to our two subscription rugby pods a week (will be fun for Lions tour), plus everything else: soccer pods, written features/analysis, the lot!.
