Sky expected to lean on TV3 for new pundits

Sky Sports’ stable of GAA pundits and commentators to be announced today is expected to lean heavily on TV3.

Peter Canavan, Paul Earley, Nicky English and Jamesie O’Connor, who were analysts with the independent broadcasters, are in line to be named alongside Paul Galvin and Jason Sherlock among the group. Dublin-born Sky Sports News anchor Rachel Wyse is anticipated to be one of the presenters.

TV3’s GAA Championship commentators Mike Finnerty and David McIntyre are also expected to share duties across Sky Sports’ 20 live games, 14 of which are exclusive in Ireland to the British broadcasters.
