A very creditable eighth place for Ben Lynch in the men's freeski halfpipe final Not bad for a first ever skiing final for Ireland

@RTEsport Wonder if he will get the same anger and racism as adeleke and edogbo got… given he is Canadian…

@ClippyXmark @RTEsport Explain how he is Canadian?

@Patrickennedy21 @RTEsport Has lived in Canada since he was 2. Lives in Vancouver trains in Calgary. Is a Canadian citizen. Was in the Canadian ski pathway and represented Canada until he transferred to represent Ireland in 2024. His coach is also Canadian. Shall I go on?

@ClippyXmark @RTEsport Do yeah I am waiting to hear how a person born in Dublin to an Irish parent isn't Irish

@Patrickennedy21 @RTEsport Because he considers himself Canadian. Lives there, is a Canadian, has represented Canada. Yet people like you say adeleke and edogbo aren’t even though they were born here, and are proud to wear the green of Ireland.

@ClippyXmark @Patrickennedy21 @RTEsport Down with this sort of thing.

@gombean @Patrickennedy21 @RTEsport Not sure why people welcome him with open arms while adeleke and edogbo get non Stop abuse…. Almost like there is a reason…perhaps the reason is the amount of melanin they have

@ClippyXmark @Patrickennedy21 @RTEsport His is bit rounder at the top.
