Listen: RTÉ’s radio commentary in final minutes against Australia is stirring stuff

Michael Corcoran nearly loses his voice

Gareth Makim

Those who watched yesterday’s win over Australia witnessed a display of passion and intensity as Ireland held on for a memorable 26-23 triumph.

If you were listening on the wireless, you got double your money, as RTÉ commentator Michael Corcoran delivered an equally full-blooded performance, barely hanging on to his vocal chords as Ireland hung on in the final moments.

Sends a shiver down the spine all over again.
