The Championship - Fergal Logan, Kevin Feeley and Ashling O'Connell join Damian Lawlor

The Allianz Leagues reach their final round of round robin games with plenty still to be decided.

The four football divisions are the more intriguing, and Peter Canavan joins Cathal Mullaney and Rory O'Neill to run through the permutations.

Hurling (35:00) has less on the line, but the de facto semi-final between Limerick and Galway does raise a couple of talking points.

Cork's shot at Division 1 | Do Munster hurling sides meet too often? 

Cathal Mullaney and Conor Neville from the RTÉ Sport team are joined by Éamonn Fitzmaurice to take a look at round 6 of the Allianz football league. Éamonn boldly proposes that Kerry may be entering an era similar to Jim Gavin's Dublin from 2015-2020 (4:45). 
Mayo's attacking game (7:50) against Kerry was broken down, with the ex-Kerry manager stating he felt any issues would be ironed out in time for Championship season. 
The Rossies are in flying form was another topic of discussion and Éamonn feels they look like they have preserved more energy than usual to beat their past form of not being able to produce after a strong league performance. (13:00)
Ger Brennan's post-match comments were brought up with Éamonn reflecting that the "straight shooting" manager maybe felt there was a lack of leadership in their second-half performance that allowed Armagh to control the kickouts (16:30). 
Thoughts also turned to what approach Jack O'Conor will take for the final-round clash against the Orchard county, with Éamonn stating that incentives for both sides could make for an exciting clash in the Athletic Grounds (20:10). 
As the league comes to a close the panel wonder if players are as concerned and aware of the permutations, Éamonn reflects that it depends on the player and their level of personal "nerdiness" for the intricacies of the game (26:50). 
Division 2, 3 and 4 are also discussed, with Cork's fate determined to be very much in their own hands against Tyrone, who they have a decent record against (29:50), and uniquely all seven teams remain in the mix in Division 4 (34:50).

Refreshed Roscommon and Cork’s Division 1 destiny decider 

Cathal Mullaney is joined by fellow Sligoman James McMahon and former Westmeath manager Dessie Dolan to preview the weekend's Allianz Football League action.

There is much excitement around Mayo's visit to Tralee to take on Kerry (2:50) and not just because it's Kobe versus Clifford. Can Mayo keep the 'Moranball' bounce going or will Jack O'Connor look to continue his impressive league record?

Also on Saturday, Armagh travel to Croke Park to take on Dublin (9:00). Neither side has enjoyed the spring they would have hoped for... can Armagh find the net and can Ger Brennan find a few more wins while minding Con O'Callaghan?

High-flying Donegal travel to Roscommon on Sunday (15:45) with the hosts looking to bounce back from a poor showing against Dublin. Dessie believes the Connacht men need to show more aggression in the tackle.

With Monaghan hosting Galway (18:40) and the drop looking inevitable, Dessie explains how the drop to Division 2 is not the end of the world... provide you bounce back up.

Things in Division 2 (21:20) continue to intrigue, as Tyrone look devoid of confidence and Dessie asks, 'Who would manage the Cork footballers?'

Finally, with Offaly struggling in the second tier and a gaggle of Division 3 sides looking to join Down in promotion, Dessie spells out the gulf between the second and third tiers.
