Episode 1252: All-Ireland Football Final Preview – Why Tyrone Must Go For The Jugular, Deep And Dangerous, Football On Trial

Wed 29th Aug 2018
Eoin, Murph, Oisin McConville, Andy McEntee, Mike Quirke

Dublin are going for their fourth All-Ireland title in a row, and thus far it’s been a cruise of a summer. Can Tyrone put a stop to their gallop, or at least make them feel some mild discomfort?

Oisin McConville and Mike Quirke are on hand to try and construct an argument for how Tyrone can set about their task, and we’re joined in studio by Andy McEntee, whose Meath team came within a last minute point of knocking Tyrone out of the qualifiers in Navan back in June.

We talk about Mickey Harte’s excellent record in finals, coming up with a plan (and the limitations of sticking all your hopes on that), matching Dublin stride for stride, and whether a good final can save a poor season… and what damage a bad final would do to the game.

Plus there’s Kerry going for five-in-a-row, Ken’s dressing room wall motivation for Tyrone, and lob-sided briefs.
