It's All-Ireland final week! 

Maurice, Mick and Gary take you through all the reasons to be excited ahead of another Kilkenny and Tipperary final. We look back at the brilliant finals over the past decade from these two, have an in depth look at the managers, some of the players involved and they assess the potential matchups on Sunday. 

Gary will also then host a special All-Ireland final quiz between Maurice and Mick. Think you can do better than the two lads? You're probably right!

We also talk to Wexford star Conor McDonald to get his take on the final, the despair of losing the semi-final in such a manner and how tough it is to even watch a final you're not involved in.

The lads also make their picks for the game. Could we have another day out this summer yet?
