A statement from a Six Nations spokesperson read: "We would like to inform you that the issue relating to the delayed start the NatWest 6 Nations television coverage of Wales v Scotland which affected a number of broadcasters worldwide was not due to individual broadcasters. "There was a delay in delivery of the World Feed from the host broadcaster (BBC) which affected some of our partner broadcasters worldwide including TV3 in Ireland. This was regrettable but we hope that it did not take away from the enjoyment of what was a phenomenal contest in Cardiff. We will ensure that this issue is rectified and does not re-occur for future matches."https://twitter.com/openlyGAAman/status/959830586658615296 https://twitter.com/TheBearWeir/status/959844499210911744 https://twitter.com/11Duffer/status/959820999171690498 https://twitter.com/crowleypc/status/959820910604750850 However, TV3 couldn't quite escape other critiques, ranging from their picture quality to the post-match analysis to generally not being able to live up to the standard set by its predecessor. We'll chalk it off to teething problems for now. For everyone's enjoyment, we can only hope the coverage and analysis improve in the weeks to come. Then again, if Johnny Sexton keeps doing what he does best, the coverage will remain very much a secondary matter.
