Cork seeking Tipp revenge, Limerick and Kilkenny to do battle | RTÉ GAA Podcast

Ahead of this weekend Gaelic football and hurling action, Cathal Mullaney is joined by Dessie Dolan, Damian Lawlor and Liam Sheedy.

Cathal, Dessie and Damian look ahead to an Allianz Football League weekend where arguably the Division 2 action outstrips the top tier, with Cork and Meath of particular interest.

Dessie reckons Cork need to put together a consistent 70 minutes to compete with a Meath team who have been turning heads.

Elsewhere, the lads assess Darragh Canavan's loss to Tyrone, Armagh's keeper conundrum and Kerry's motives as they head to Croker to take on the Dubs.

Also, with kick-out 'piggery' supposedly ruling the game, Dessie says a player of Paul Galvin's quality would be worth an astronomical value.

Liam Sheedy joins Cathal in studio (36:45) to preview the weekend's hurling.

The All-Ireland winning Tipp manager backs Kyle Hayes to fill the centre-back position for Limerick in the long term as the game comes to terms with the value of a sitting 6 versus a deep 11.

Waterford will give a good test to their neighbours Kilkenny, who are looking to fill a few positions.

After some good performances with no reward, Galway are in need of a result against Offaly.

In Division 1B, Lee Chin's return is just in time for the trip to Croke Park, with Wexford dealing with a dearth of leaders, while Clare seem to be getting the old gang back together for one more heist.

€100m for Paul Galvin | Hurling's Deep 11 v Sitting 6

Cathal Mullaney is joined in studio by Niall McCoy and online by Enda McGinley to break down the third round of the Allianz Football League, a weekend that brought a somewhat unexpected Armagh defeat, a halt to Mayo’s momentum, and a notably aggressive performance from Tyrone.


Enda (1:30) reflects on how managers are struggling to exert control from the sidelines amid the heightened chaos created by last year’s rule changes. While the shift has been challenging for those in charge, he notes that it has made the game more enjoyable to play.


The panel also digs into Kieran McGeeney’s “piggery” remarks surrounding kickout battles. Former manager Enda explains that while possession is still central to modern football, the days of relying on intricate set plays are fading as teams become less consistent at securing their own restarts.


The conversation turns to Roscommon’s growing promise, the group debates whether Mayo’s re-found chaos isn't going to work against teams that maintain possession for long spells. 


Niall floats the idea that Donegal legend Michael Murphy could evolve into a devastating “super sub” for Jim McGuinness in this year’s Championship, with Enda imagining the lift Murphy could provide if introduced during a difficult spell.


The panel then shifts to Tyrone (37:00), with Enda praising the side’s rediscovered aggression, energy, and attacking pace. However, he believes a few more players need to elevate themselves into top-tier roles for the team to fully reach its potential.


Finally, the spotlight moves to Division 4, where, with two Ulster men on the pod, the discussion naturally lands on Antrim. Enda shares his view that there is little reward for competing in the division at present and suggests the League may be a tough sell in a dual-code county (38:30).
