Andrew Porter in studio | Springboks fallout, teenage trauma & life off the pitch

Late last month, we travelled to south Derry to spend an evening embedded with CLG Sleacht Néill to learn about the ties that bind the community and the GAA.

From longstanding club members, to All Star footballers, to the next generation, Joe chatted to people of all different ages to get an insight into why Slaughtneil is driven by not only maintaining and excelling in all four codes, but also a love of the Irish language and how the GAA can bring people together.

Joe is joined by Ian Madigan and Ruaidhri O'Connor to discuss an eventful opening weekend of Champions Cup action.
Munster's humbling in Bath, Leinster's patchy outing against Harlequins and whether Ireland's current style of play is fit for purpose is all on the menu.
Joe also asks Ian and Ruaidhri whether Irish rugby stars are suffering from a degree of 'flatness' midway through the World Cup cycle.

Joe, Conan and Conor convene for a jam-packed Monday Bits & Bobs coming hot on the heels of another chapter in the Liverpool drama, as Mo Salah’s outburst makes us ask if the club are in a situation where they must back either Arne Slot or Salah.
FIFA’s bizarre World Cup draw, Trump’s prize, Arsenal’s slowdown and Celtic’s managerial hokey-cokey round off the soccer chat, before drama across the world of club GAA starts a debate.
Plus - Conor’s evening out watch Emile Heskey and Stephen Ireland play an over-35s clash in Dublin.
