This week we start a new feature at Eurovision Ireland, where the team and it’s contributors vote on their favourite songs from a particular participating nation. As with the traditional Eurovision Juries, we will each award 12 points to our favourite, then 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 and 1.

Today, we conclude the votes from our juries on Estonia and their entries between 1993-2017 – before releasing the full results. This week’s #SCOREBOARD has formed part of our Eesti Laul coverage.
