Brilliance of Barry Nash | Cork testing tweaks | Dublin-Wexford niggle

Shane McGrath dials in to chat with Cathal Mullaney and Rory
O'Neill ahead of another weekend of provincial hurling action.


Rory is quick to remind Shane of all the Cork teams in action
this week, with Barry Walsh set to line out for the Cork
Under-20s and seniors this week - is there fear of burnout
(3:00)?


There is a mea culpa from Shane (5:00) for his Clare prediction.
He accepts Limerick very good without two hurlers of the year -
the fact two spots were up for grabs spurred on the fringe
players. But Clare weren’t ready to hurl that match at 2 o’clock
Sunday.


The brilliance of Barry Nash is well discussed (11:00). His
involvement in so many crucial moments drew comparisons to Ollie
Canning.


Shane was reminded of the coaching of Eamon O’Shea watching
Limerick's comfort playing in tight spaces, the Tipp coach used
to have the panel play a possession game between the 14 and
21-yard lines, which left no space to breathe. This gave you an
appreciation of how big the pitch is. Limerick have that
approach.


This weekend Cork's depth to be tested against Waterford (24:00)
with Ciaran Joyce and Rob Downey absences. Rory calls for subtle
changes, not an overhaul. Shane is tipping Waterford, much to the
anguish of their fans. He is encouraged by how they hurled in the
second half against Tipp.


To Leinster and Wexford v Dublin (33:00). Time for Wexford to
stand up and if the Dubs lose they could be haunted by that draw
with Offaly. Tie down Lee Chin and Shane predicts a Dublin win,
that could be a job for Eoghan O’Donnell.


It's time for Offaly to stop being so deferential to Kilkenny
(43:00). Shane says they were more direct against Wexford, which
suits them.
