Episode 1422: Dublin Pooped Or Possum – Can We Call This A Slump? Ken Gets Charmed By Jack Byrne, Doherty Talks Goals, Declan Kidney Meets International Spy
There was a moment on Saturday night, as Dublin were slumping to a third defeat in this year’s National Football League Division 1, when Eoin reckoned he saw Jim Gavin’s mask fall. His irritation was even easier to spot in his post-match interview. He seemed pretty annoyed… so is the party over, or are Dublin playing possum?
Jim Gavin didn’t pull any punches in his assessment of Dublin’s third defeat in six games.https://t.co/ifUXsUzkZq

Oisin McConville and Mike Quirke (27.10 mins) are on the show today, speaking with renewed hope of a competitive championship in 2019… and while there are limits to how real this decline is, teams are finally getting to taste victory against them, and that might be reason enough to feel a little more confident at the start of this summer.
We also discuss Corofin’s template for attacking football, and if it can work at county level.
Corofin beat one of the best club sides to ever come out of Kerry, and they did it playing a brand of football that should inspire every coach & manager in the country. From today’s @ExaminerSport https://t.co/vaHDukS4kY
