Jacqui Hurley and Rory O'Neill are joined by Ursula Jacob and Elaine Aylward to look back on Galway's thrilling All-Ireland Senior Camogie final triumph over three-in-a-row chasing Cork.

The Tribeswomen brought a physicality and ferocity to their game which Cork struggled to get to grips with during the early stages of the most gripping All-Ireland final of the season.

Ursula and Elaine agree that Cathal Murray was right to use 'disrespect' to fuel his charges, given they have now won three of the last seven All-Irelands before Sunday.

As regards Cork's complaints over the refereeing decisions, our pundits agree that Justin Heffernan got the big decisions right and both teams could point to calls that went against them over the 60 minutes.

Finally, Jacqui asks Ursula to reflect on her own Wexford side's achievements, as they remian the last team to achieve three All-Irelands in a row.

Angry Galway prevail in best inter-county All-Ireland final of 2025

Cathal Mullaney is joined by Shane McGrath and Mikey Stafford to discuss the weekend’s Allianz League hurling action, which saw a historic loss for Kilkenny, Limerick’s return to their old set-up, and the benefits of 1B for developing teams.

Shane details how he felt nothing went right for Kilkenny in Salthill on Saturday (1:20), where a lack of energy and an issue with their puck-out resulted in the county's worst loss since the 1950s, a result Shane joked even Google wouldn’t know.

The panel also consider how Galway have risen to their current status, with Shane adding that the real measure of success for minor teams is how many make it to senior, suggesting Galway as an example (11:30).

Thoughts also turn to Kilkenny's next fixture, against Shane's own Tipp, where a heavy defeat could see relegation for the 36-time All-Ireland champions, something he feels could further motivate the Premier County for the fixture (13:00).

The lack of need for goalkeepers in Salthill was another point of discussion, with Shane noting that of the 52 points scored, not one was a shot on goal, signifying changes in the game (14:40).

Limerick v Cork was next on the list of fixtures to discuss and, despite the two-point loss for the Rebels, Shane feels that experiencing Limerick's intensity will benefit them come Championship (16:00).

Shane explained that he felt Limerick have returned to their old set-up, with diagonal ball once again at the forefront of their approach. He praises Kyle Hayes for his unpredictable play and shares his thoughts on the 27-year-old’s ideal position on the pitch (28:00).

The chat then turns to 1B, and Shane expresses his belief that the division is the perfect platform for teams in transition to develop their panels - though still some way off the level needed to succeed in the Championship (31:30).

The group discuss the Lilywhites’ weekend performance, and Shane explains that even without Jack Sheridan they were still able to turn heads, adding that he thinks a big win is coming in Leinster… Wexford? Kilkenny? A few teams are thrown around, but either way Shane predicts a big upset come the Leinster Championship (33:00).

Lastly, the Dubs are discussed, with Shane explaining how he feels a League title is on the cards, complimenting the competitive nature of 1B as perfect preparation for the Leinster Championship (38:00).

Kilkenny stalled and keepers kept idle, Kildare closing the gap?

Cathal Mullaney is joined by the dynamic Clare duo of Marty Morrissey and Anthony Daly to preview the weekend's Allianz Hurling League action.

In arguably the most tantalising round of fixtures thus far, much may be decided in the top two divisions.

Dalo describes Waterford as 'abysmal' in their heavy defeats to Cork and Galway but gives them some hope against a Tipp side who were fairly abysmal themselves in defeat to Limerick (02:00).

Galway and Kilkenny (09:30) both need a win to fend off relegation threat. Galway are building strength and depth again thanks to their underage production line, but the same can't be said of Kilkenny, where the well has run dry to an extent.

The biggest game of the weekend prove to be the most underwhelming, with real fears that Cork and Limerick (16:00) may engage in a bit of shadowboxing, with the potential for three or even four more meetings in the coming months.

Finally to matters in Division 1B (27:00), where Banner hero Dalo fully expects already-promoted Clare to go full bore against Wexford and all but condemn the improving Model County to another year in the second tier.

Meanwhile the balance of power may be about to tip in the Carlow-Kildare rivalry.

Marty and Dalo chat Cork-Limerick phoney war and Kilkenny's lack of youth

Cathal Mullaney is joined by Eamonn Fitzmaurice and Damian Lawlor to discuss football, with Shane McGrath and Rory O'Neill joining after to look back at the hurling.

After a strange weekend of results in the Allianz League, football’s form lines are hard to discern.

Football Review Committee mastermind Eamonn reveals a few opportunities at opponent's kick-out and Cathal gets very excited.

Armagh lose another tight game (11:00), this time to Mayo. Lack of goals at one end is the problem, coupled with too many at the other. Are they overthinking it?

Meanwhile for Mayo the Kobe hype is disguising their growth around the field.

Kerry are in a good position, even if they're not pulling up trees (18:00).

Roscommon will be bitterly disappointed but Dublin impressed in the Hyde, with Jim Gavin era levels of efficiency in front of goal (20:00).

Cork systems failure above in Derry (24:00) as they feel loss of Ian Maguire. Scoring difference could cost the Rebels. Time for pints in Portugal?

Meath built on fast start in Newbridge to down their neighbours (27:10). No disguising how impressive the Royals have been so far this year.

Kudos to Wexford and Clare as Division 3 looking very interesting (30:00) with a close race to join runaway leaders Down in Division 2.

Hurling (33:19) begins with a chat about Shane Long's hurling prowess.

Cork get rare win in Nowlan Park without a plethora of potential Championship starters and on a dry day Shane reckons there could have been 5-6 goals for the Rebels.

But KIlkenny's lack of attacking talent in pipeline is concerning (41:00).

Hurling now a percentage game played by elite athletes (51:00) as team are set up to play a 70:30 ball to their forwards from a pre-determined spot on the pitch.

With some proven performers back on the pitch Offaly put in good performance against Limeick (56:20), who've lost Darragh O'Donovan to a shoulder injury.

Galway were miles ahead of Waterford in Salthill, whatever the scoreboard might suggest (63:25) as the Déise struggle for consistency.
