GAA Embdeded is our new weekly GAA show on Balls.ie. Every Monday for the Championship summer, Tipperary's Shane McGrath and Kerry's Darran O'Sullivan will be our guides through the hurling and football championships. We'll also have special guests, tactical breakdowns, and much, much more. 

This week, Darran looks back on the game of the Championship so far as Donegal just outlasted local rivals Derry after an almighty scare. We talk about the weekend's "soft" red cards and how they are maybe not soft at all. As Kerry and Mayo march on, we also discuss the drab situation of seeing Leitrim beaten so comprehensively on live television. 

Maurice Brosnan then brings us Inside The Game with reaction to the Hurling Qualifiers draw, Laois' hurling bounceback, why structures alone won't solve GAA inequality, and he also takes us through his Embedded article from last week on a Dublin cliché we shouldn't so easily dismiss. 

We also look at the greatest hurling helmets of all time and PJ and Gary battle it out to guess the handicaps for next weekend's games.
