Joe Canning made days. The day in the 2014 Leinster championship when he exchanged sideline points with Henry Shefflin to force a draw. The day in the 2015 Leinster Final when he caught a ball over his head while turning, and then swivelled in one swift movement to lash it into the net. The day in 2017 when he scored that magical point against Tipperary.

Joe joins us in studio today to discuss his new book which recalls all the matches and moments that made him (arguably) the Greatest Hurler of the 21st Century.
