Episode 1167: Hurling Championship Off To A Flyer, Leinster On The Double, Munster’s Skill Shortage
The Leinster Championship was first into the fray last week, and with four games across both provincial round-robins yesterday, Eoin has called it – he’s a big fan of the new-look All-Ireland hurling championship.
Five of the main talking points from the weekend’s Hurling and Football Championship action.

We have Michael Duignan and former Tipperary legend Eoin Kelly in studio to talk about Cork and Limerick’s opening day wins, and Dublin’s second spirited display in seven days, which ends with them leaving empty-handed again.

Will Tipperary’s hurling public turn on their team, are Cork the real deal, and are Clare destined to forever lose close games? All issues up for debate on today’s show.

Plus we remember the day Ken met Haddaway, Jonno Gibbs is put on the spot, and we lament Munster Rugby’s inability to pass which is perhaps a more vexed problem than they’re willing to admit.
Signing off with a heavy heart..
Thank you Munster Rugby for letting me fulfill my dreams in playing for and representing our great club..
Thank you to the players,staff and supporters for accepting me for who I am and letting me be me..
Hope it’s not the end just bye for now
