Balls.ie's resident League of Ireland head Sean attempts to get people hyped for the start of the League of Ireland season. God loves a trier.

Elsewhere on The Buildup podcast:

Ladbrokes ambassador Kevin Doyle chats to the lads about the need for Shane Long in the Ireland squad, the Mauricio Pochettino-shaped hole on Manchester United's touchline and tales of extreme weather.
