Quoted in The Indo today, Rob Kearney took aim - without naming names - at rugby analysts who he said were simply attention seeking sensationalists. Analysts who do not fit into this category, according to Rob, are Ronan O’Gara, Shane Horgan, Brent Pope and Conor O’Shea.
Some quick Cluedo-esque deduction later and everyone figured out who he was talking about - one G.Hook.
Off RTÉ duty for the rest of the evening, George took to Twitter to respond to the Irish full back.
Interesting in the INDO today. Rob Kearney thinks the best pundits are his mates.

It seems Rob Kearney believes that criticism of rugby pundits by him is ok but in the other direction is sensation seeking.
