Time for Cork pints in Portugal?; Hurling a percentage game played by athletes

Cathal Mullaney is joined by Eamonn Fitzmaurice and Damian Lawlor
to discuss football, with Shane McGrath and Rory O'Neill joining
after to look back at the hurling.


After a strange weekend of results in the Allianz League,
football’s form lines are hard to discern.


Football Review Committee mastermind Eamonn reveals a few
opportunities at opponent's kick-out and Cathal gets very
excited.


Armagh lose another tight game (11:00), this time to Mayo. Lack
of goals at one end is the problem, coupled with too many at the
other. Are they overthinking it?


Meanwhile for Mayo the Kobe hype is disguising their growth
around the field.


Kerry are in a good position, even if they're not pulling up
trees (18:00).


Roscommon will be bitterly disappointed but Dublin impressed in
the Hyde, with Jim Gavin era levels of efficiency in front of
goal (20:00).


Cork systems failure above in Derry (24:00) as they feel loss of
Ian Maguire. Scoring difference could cost the Rebels. Time for
pints in Portugal?


Meath built on fast start in Newbridge to down their neighbours
(27:10). No disguising how impressive the Royals have been so far
this year.


Kudos to Wexford and Clare as Division 3 looking very interesting
(30:00) with a close race to join runaway leaders Down in
Division 2.


Hurling (33:19) begins with a chat about Shane Long's hurling
prowess.


Cork get rare win in Nowlan Park without a plethora of potential
Championship starters and on a dry day Shane reckons there could
have been 5-6 goals for the Rebels.


But KIlkenny's lack of attacking talent in pipeline is concerning
(41:00).


Hurling now a percentage game played by elite athletes (51:00) as
team are set up to play a 70:30 ball to their forwards from a
pre-determined spot on the pitch.


With some proven performers back on the pitch Offaly put in good
performance against Limeick (56:20), who've lost Darragh
O'Donovan to a shoulder injury.


Galway were miles ahead of Waterford in Salthill, whatever the
scoreboard might suggest (63:25) as the Déise struggle for
consistency.
