VIDEO: Shane Byrne’s weird comments live on TV3 after the Wales-South Africa game

Is the martian good looking?

Is the martian good looking?

South Africa beat Wales 23-19 in the World Cup quarter final by brute force rather than expansive free flowing rugby today.

TV3 have Shane Byrne, Fiona Steed and Shane Jenning on the panel for the game and Byrne made some rather odd comments in the post match chat.

Here’s the footage, make sure you turn the volume up to the last.

TV presenter Tommy Martin asked how you’d explain SA’s gameplan to a martian and Byrne replied with, “”Is the martian attractive?”

Tommy responded with, “I’ve never seen a martian… what’s your point?” and Byrne’s comeback to that was, “I’d love a pint.”

We reckon Shane didn’t realise his microphone was back on. The joys of live TV.
